The van turns off a narrow coastal road and a sudden sweep of limestone and sea opens up — Dingli Cliffs dropping sheer to the Mediterranean while wind tugs at jackets and conversations slow. On a private Malta tour the landscape moves like chapters: rugged coast, honey-coloured walled cities and compact fishing harbours where luzzu boats bob with painted eyes.
