What to see in Malta in 3 days

One of the best way to see the sights of Malta is to hire a car so that you can travel quickly from one city to another. Having said that, you do need to bear in mind that on the island, traffic drives on the left, as in the United Kingdom — which, for travellers from elsewhere, can be a little confusing at first. There is also public transport, buses and ferries, but remember that they are not the most efficient. You will need a degree of patience with timetables and with the length of journeys.
