Never discount a Sightseeing Bus Tour! Even though you may consider yourself a ‘traveller’ not a ‘tourist’, someone keen to immerse yourself in the culture of a new nation, these vehicles still have their place and provide an excellent and valuable service – especially on Malta!
So you’ve just landed in Malta! Or you’ve lived here for your entire life. Or you’ve got family here and you come down a few times a year for a quick holiday. It doesn’t matter much, really, because whether you know the island like the back of your hand or you’re just venturing out to get your first taste of this little gem of ours, the chances are that you’ve never experienced it from the deck of a chartered yacht.
Fewer things in life get the adrenaline flowing like blasting along with your backside scraping ‘the surface’ with a hugely powerful engine roaring at your rear. Some people might do this in a car when the surface in question is smooth uniform tarmac. Pah! That’s for big girls! Those with serious balls do it in a boat when said surface is uneven water or could be downright choppy!
If we are to believe the iconic American band Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers then ‘coming down is the hardest thing’ when you’re learning to fly. He probably tried to learn on Malta because the rest of it – finding someone to teach you, perfect conditions, great views etc is dead easy!
Most people’s first sight of the ‘casino scene’ comes courtesy of Hollywood films. These usually show tuxedo-clad millionaires – with long-gowned beauties on their arms – betting thousands at the roulette, poker or craps table. They’ll also be drinking Champagne, or some exotic cocktail too. If you fancy a bit of that then it's available in Malta!
We’ve all dreamed the Formula 1 dream, haven’t we? The one where it’s not Lewis Hamilton but you driving to a Grand Prix victory in a glamorous venue, taking the plaudits and spraying the crowd with Champagne. The reality is that it’s never going to happen - but you can experience the thrills and spills of high-speed racing on the kart track.
Sometimes you do something on holiday that you would never contemplate doing back home. Ironically, this then turns out to be a highlight, and one of the happiest memories, of your whole vacation.
Tattoos are more fashionable now than they have been at any point in living memory. Driven by heavily inked sports, pop and film stars, it seems everyone is now following suit and having a design for life created on their skin. So why not take home a souvenir from Malta that you’ll have no problem getting through customs and can’t get smashed by baggage handlers? A tattoo!
You always do a bit of sightseeing when you’re on holiday. So, why not double the fun and spot those sights while having an enjoyable and memorable experience at the same time? This is simple to do in some of the main cities, where you can enjoy a guided tour in a traditional Maltese horse and carriage – a karozzin!
If there’s one thing more difficult to avoid on this island than the annoying couple that insists on sitting next to you in the hotel restaurant and boring you rigid throughout each meal, it’s the Mediterranean. On a small island like this, encounters with the sea are inevitable so you should endeavour to make them as pleasant as possible … in Malta that means ride in a dghajsa!
