8 Dingli Cliffs Tours in Mdina Worth Booking

1.Mdina, Dingli Cliffs and San Anton Botanical Gardens

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 991 reviews · 4 hours · from $41Our pick

Visit Mdina’s palaces, churches, bastion views, Dingli Cliffs, and the peaceful paths of San Anton Gardens with a licensed guide. Guides may include Maria, Elizabeth, Jennifer, or Anna. The pace is efficient, but Mdina deserves extra time if you can stay on afterward.

“Our tour was great. Our guide was amazing. We opted to stay in Mdina to eat and shop rather than returning to our hotel with the group. So if I could change anything, it would be more time in Mdina and still keep your return transportation.”

2.Mdina, Rabat, Dingli cliffs, San Anton gardens, Ta’ Qali & Mosta guided tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 248 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $80

Spend about eight hours touring Malta by air-conditioned vehicle, from Mdina’s medieval lanes and Rabat’s catacombs to Dingli Cliffs, San Anton Gardens, Ta’ Qali and Mosta Rotunda. English-speaking guides such as Ana, John and Vince bring the history to life. Lunch is included, but expect a large group and a fast pace.

“Great full day tour! Our guide Charles was very knowledgable, yet light-hearted and funny. Due to weather (it rained a bit in the morning), he switched the program around a bit that allowed us to avoid rain while visiting the Mdina fortifications. He gave us enough time at every stop, answered all the questions. Lunch was provided at the cool restaraunt, food was very good and included red wine. Pick up and drop off transports were on time and used comfortable vans. Great day!”

3.Tuk Tuk Tour around Rabat, Dingli and Mdina

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 89 reviews · 1.5 hours · from $40Best value

Ride with local guide Nicky in an open tuk-tuk through Rabat, Mtarfa and the countryside near Mdina, then stop at Dingli Cliffs for wide sea views and a tasting of Maltese coffee and treats. The 1.5-hour tour carries no more than four people and does not enter Mdina’s streets.

“Nik, the guide, is a precious, pleasant and kind guy. The tour was really enjoyable thanks to him and his professionality and friendly attitude. The tour taches the most relevant historical sites in the area around Rabat and Mdina. The stop at Dinglii Cliff is a great opportunity to enjoy a wide view of the sea from the hight coast. The spicy taste of the typical Maltese coffee, offered there, is a plus. I would suggest the tour as a first overview of Malta's history, nature, culture and tradition. Thanks Nik!”

4.Blue Grotto, Dingli, Rabat, Mdina, Ta Qali & Mosta

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 75 reviews

Travel by private car with an English-speaking driver from the Blue Grotto to Dingli Cliffs, Rabat, Mdina, Ta Qali, and Mosta. You can add a 15-minute boat ride at the Blue Grotto, sample food in Mdina, and browse Maltese crafts, though the four-hour schedule can feel tight.

“Mellissa was a great guide, a safe driver, and very flexible in accommodating our needs. The weather was windy so we didn’t get to take a boat ride at the blue grotto, and the Ta Qali workshops were a bit of a waste of time if like me, you don’t care much for glass or rocks…..although watching them blow glass at the Valletta glass shop was interesting.”

“Mdina is gorgeous and the time allowed was sufficient but I recommend taking the local bus instead. The gardens were terrible - my backyard is nicer, cliffs are cliffs.. nice view but you only need 10mins there. Tour guide was terrible and added no local knowledge- I learnt more from the signs than from her. Save your money and take the local bus!”
