Notes:
Malta (2011). No visa required for USA and European passports. Bus from airport to Valletta E0.50. Bus from airport to temples: E0.50, 20 minutes. Bus from temples to Valletta: E1.20, 40 minutes. Entrance to temples (Hagar Qim and neighbor): E9. Entrance to Ggantija E5. Archeological Museum in Valletta E5. There is a ticket for all sites but it's E30. A sightseeing bus can be used to tour the island (hop on hop off in several places). Granny's Inn in Sliema E18. Comfort Inn in Sliema E28 with bath. Difficult to find accommodation in Valletta. Sliema is better for restaurants anyway. It's a ten-minute ferry ride from Valletta.. Dinner prices are similar to Italy's (expensive). Internet E1.50 per hour. Unfriendly and/or incompetent tourist office. Bus 452 to Gozo ferry E1.20 (1h). Ferry E5. Bus 25 to Victoria E0.50. Xargha is 2kms from the roundabout at the entrance of Victoria. The bike shop is at the terminus in Victoria. Waiting for buses in Gozo is a massive waste of time. Biking from Victoria to Azure Windows is 20 minutes and en route one can also visit the Ta Pinu sanctuary. Guesthouses seem to be a lot cheaper in Gozo than in Malta proper.
