Malta & Sicily

What to expect

Shaped by a marvelous mosaic of cultures, these beautiful islands between Europe and northern Africa abound with treasures. Over four nights in Sliema, Malta, and five nights in Taormina, Sicily, behold illustrious monuments of antiquity. In Malta, take in Hagar Qim and Ggantija, fascinating Neolithic temples older than the Great Pyramids and Stonehenge. In Sicily, appreciate the glorious Greek ruins of Agrigento and Syracuse and some of the world’s most spectacular Roman mosaics. You’ll also delight in baroque gems tucked within Valletta, Malta’s intimate capital, and savor the breathtaking scenery of Taormina, Sicily’s chic resort town. Stroll along the narrow lanes of atmospheric Mdina and Rabat in Malta and picturesque Ortygia in Sicily on guided tours, plus delve into enduring traditions like Sicilian pizza making and Maltese sea-salt farming. On this active, small-group adventure, enjoy first-class hotels, expert insights from guides and lecturers, and the Mediterranean’s acclaimed cuisine with wine at dinner.
