A breaktaking trip into an underground, prehistoric temple deep in the earth. A bit off the beaten track to get to (literally in a residential sidestreet) - though Malta's comprehensive bus system means it's easy to get to, if you're not driving. You must book a ticket well in advance - there is a limited number of visitors admitted each... More

You must book this attraction way ahead, because only 10 people are allowed at any one time. But it is definitely worth a visit, unless you suffer from claustrophobia. It will certainly be one of the highlights of a trip to Malta

I really enjoyed this tour, and the underground carved chambers are amazing. (There's a lot of history here, and there's nearby caves as part of the complex where it's rumoured that some people/schoolkids went missing in these caves in 1940s - reminiscent of that film "Picnic at Hanging Rock"...I've done some research on the Hypogeum after I've gotten back from...

I loved this and was so glad my Maltese friend booked this for me. It was one fo the highlights of Malta. I would recommend anyone to book well in advance as I saw signs saying it was booked solid for the next two months. The Hypogeum itself is spectacular, well maintained and in superb condition. I did feel that... More

The small island of Malta can be called Treasure Islands. Its history goes back thousands of years. This you can see it spread in front of your eyes. The great number of temples of the Stone Age Era show that this little island could easily be called 'Holy Island'. But its most beautiful and wonderful temple is the one found... More

This is a prehistoric underground temple,An experience that cannot be missed. Very well preserved.A very good documentary accompanies your visit.

The Hypogeum is wonderful, but very exclusive. Only 80 people can visit it each day. They have two visit times, which means 20 tickets, reserved for who didn't book previously, at 12pm and 4pm that can be booked only the day before in a couple of heritage malta museums (I believe valletta's archeological museum is one of them) but not...

We booked a couple of months before and glad we did, places are limited. You can't take photos and everything is done by an audioguide which you each carry around so is in everyone's language of choice. You have to leave your bags in a locker at the top - it's very secure as they guard it! The Hypogeum itself... More

This has to be the best of Malta's ancient archaeology. You have to book weeks in advance (via Heritage Malta website) and it costs 20 Euros for an hour's tour but it is well worth the effort and cost. The staff are a bit indifferent but the audio guide is good. I would recommend doing a bit of research beforehand... More
