A self-guided audio walking tour of Mdina and Rabat — ten stops through Malta’s old capital, from the baroque gate to the catacombs, in about ninety minutes.
Every stop below is free to read in full — the history, what to look at when you get there, and the walk to the next one.
Unlock the full guide and it is read to you instead: hands in pockets, eyes on the city, the map following you from stop to stop, and the whole thing downloaded so it works underground and out of signal.
