Essential Malta: 4-5 Day Itinerary

Want to take a quick stop in Malta during your Euro trip? Here's how to hit all the high points in 4-5 days. Personally, I love a balance between admiring art and history, cooling off in beautiful blue waters, and dancing until the sun comes up. If you feel the same way, I promise this itinerary is perfect for you! It's based on my 4 days in Malta, so it's tried and tested with a few tweaks based on my own experience.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I am recent college grad who has been planning my family's vacations, and then my solo travels, since I was 11 years old! I'm from New York, so NYC is my specialty, but I've been all over the East and West Coasts, as well as much of Europe, and I'm looking to travel to Asia soon. Throughout my solo travels, I've learned that I prefer a balance between tourist attractions and living like a local (with a heavier emphasis on the latter). As a student, I travel on a VERY tight budget, but I've figured out how to stretch every dollar and where to compromise in order to not miss a single experience. I'm extremely passionate about traveling, and helping other people have the best travel experiences possible, so I decided to offer my skills online! I love making itineraries (whether you're flexible or on a tight schedule), building budgeting plans, finding the BEST spots to eat, and ensuring that all my fellow female solo travelers feel safe and have fun :)
