The Tour of Mosta, Ta’ Qali Crafts Village & Mdina, the Noble City! | Half-day

The tour begins with a visit to Mosta, where the central church inspired by the Pantheon in Rome stands as a remarkable architectural landmark. Built in the eighteenth century, it is widely known for its massive dome, one of the largest unsupported domes in the world. The church also holds a powerful story from World War II when a bomb fell through the dome but did not explode, saving hundreds of lives. This moment remains an important part of local history and adds emotional depth to the visit.

The journey continues to Ta Qali, once a British wartime outpost and now a lively crafts village where visitors can watch artisans create glass pieces, silver jewellery and stone carvings. The final stop is Mdina, known as the Silent City. Set on a hilltop, Mdina offers narrow peaceful streets and a calm atmosphere shaped by its medieval past. Visitors can walk through its historic lanes, admire well preserved architecture and enjoy wide views of the island. Free time allows for relaxed exploration, making this a balanced experience of culture history and scenic beauty.
