A rented minivan hums through narrow limestone streets as sunlight slides off honey-colored façades; windows frame jagged coastline and the inland plateau where history sits heavy. In four hours a private driver stitches together Malta’s signature scenes: the silent streets of Mdina, the rotunda at Mosta that stares like a watchful eye, prehistoric stones at Ħaġar Qim, and the Blue Grotto caves where the sea plays with light.
