Holidays in Malta

Why should you book a holiday package to Malta?

Visit the beautiful Mediterranean island of Malta for unique sites such as the world's oldest underground prehistoric temple and spectacular natural attractions like the Blue Lagoon. History enthusiasts will love Valletta's magnificent architecture and the Silent City of Mdina, which dates back 4,000 years, while art lovers won't want to miss the amazing works by Caravaggio that hang in St. John's Co-Cathedral. And, of course, the island's superb beaches, terrific restaurants, and vibrant nightlife add to its considerable appeal.

Choosing Malta packages streamlines the entire booking process. Being able to book your Malta flight and hotel in one easy step means that you're not tied up checking that rooms are available for your travel dates. And, of course, Malta holiday deals allow you to enjoy the best possible rates, whatever time of year you plan to visit. Family holidays, business trips or romantic Malta getaways are all easier to organize with tempting Malta travel deals.

When should you book a holiday package to Malta?

The summer season, from May to September, is considered the best time for Malta trips. You'll bask in up to 12 hours of sunshine from June to August with average temperatures of 88°F. Book Malta holiday deals and catch events like Malta Jazz Festival in Valletta in July or the Summer Carnival in Buġibba during August. Easter normally falls in March or April and it's one of the busiest times to visit the island thanks to the Holy Week celebrations. Look for Malta package deals later in the year to avoid the crowds; even in December, you'll enjoy 5 hours of sunshine per day.
