Malta Guide

Getting around Malta

Malta has a quaint public transport system made up of old 1950s British buses that have been redecorated with a generous amount of Catholic Icons. This makes them a joy to ride in. They are also cheap and a reasonably efficient way of getting round the Island.

If you are planning on driving in Malta, please be aware that GPS coverage can be somewhat limited at times, resulting in some questionable directions. So make sure you combine your reliance on the GPS with a bit of common sense!
