Touring Filfla

18, 25 July

Following the high demand for the 18th of July (fully booked), Heritage Malta added a new date, 25th July. 

A boat trip around the island of Filfla together with Heritage Malta's Senior Curator John J Borg. On the way back we will stop for a swim at one of the bays in the area (possibly il-Ħofriet). The explanation will take place in English.

Tarxien Temples

What did prehistoric inhabitants of the Maltese islands eat? And how do we know this? Building megalithic structures must have meant that food supplies were secure enough for persons to invest their energy in things other than basic survival.

Join us for a tour at the Tarxien Temples during which together with the curator we will discuss which food were available to prehistoric communities on the Maltese Islands and explore where they found the energy to build such megalithic structures.
