Beyond Malta Hilton Hotel St Julian’s
From St Julian’s Hilton Hotel, many other Maltese attractions are all just a leisurely drive away. With the convenience of an Avis rental, you can tour the island at your own pace.
Valletta
A 20-minute drive south from St Julian’s, Malta’s capital city awaits. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Valletta retains much of its 16th-century architecture and overlooks the pretty harbour. Marvel at the intricacies of St. John’s Co-Cathedral or soak up the spectacular views with a walk along the city’s ancient walls. The Grand Master’s Palace and the National Museum of Archaeology stand here too.
Birgu
A medieval fortified city, Birgu is steeped in ancient history. Just half an hour’s drive from St Julian’s along the Triq Mikiel Anton Vassalli, Birgu is also known as Cittá Vittoriosa and is one of Malta’s oldest cities. Boasting a long history of military and maritime activity, learn more about the country’s past at the Malta at War and Maritime museums. Fort St. Angelo, which was taken over by the famous Knights of Malta in 1530, is well worth a visit.
With so much to discover, now’s the time to hire an Avis car and explore the island of Malta.
