St Paul’s Catacombs

I'd highly recommend a visit here! Even as a local showing my visiting friends around, I really enjoyed exploring the catacombs. I was surprised by the scale of the underground burial grounds - it's more extensive than I expected. The ticket price is very fair considering the experience and the effort that's gone into maintaining the place. Don't forget to see the rest of the catacombs located across the street, with the same ticket. We spent two hours exploring the place, which was ideal to escape the summer heat!

This was way bigger than I expected it to be. I’ve been to a lot of different catacombs. Of course Paris being the most harrowing. These are much less intense but also very unique and full of history. Personally I’m claustrophobic but I managed very well here. There’s a few tight spaces but nothing to black you in or anywhere to get stuck. It’s a bit dimly lit and you cannot use flash photography but they have lights that activate when you enter. It’s kind of like a collection of individual mausoleums and tombs that you can delve in and out of. There were 20 in total but only one super large collection of connecting burial sites. It’s amazing place with loads to see and explore. My favourite thing was how multi cultural all of them were and in such close proximity. Jews, Christian’s and pagans all buried so close together. A really cool experience and no need to fear the underground. Toilets and food available on site and feels very safe and secure. Just be careful not to accidentally brush past the walls if you can avoid it

definitely worth going, interesting to see different burial traditions and times, it’s very well set just watch your head! It also has a very nice garden and the museum hall at the beginning is pretty good and short. the town where thy are is nice and very close to Mdina which is a must visit.

The catacombs are an impressive specially the first catacombs. You will find an interpretation centre right when you buy the tickets and a 15 minutes video explaining the site. The visit includes an audio guide, available in multiple languages and the site offers free WiFi throughout the visit. The site has two areas, the main area, where the ticket shop, the main displays and the biggest catacomb is and a second area, right across the road, which holds smaller catacombs (but with distinct features) and the shop, right before the exit.

Really impressive and atmospheric. Only €6 entry and local buses get you 10 minute walk away. Make sure that you do both sides of the road or you miss some really interesting catacombs.

Definitely worth visiting whilst you’re in Rabat. Fascinating subterranean catacombs, with thousands of years of history, dating back to ancient Roman and Greek periods. The catacombs were hewn from solid rock and used as burial chambers for the dead Not suitable for small children, anyone who suffers from claustrophobia, has an aversion to steep stairs, low ceilings and the dark.

Great price. Definitely worth the cheap €6 per ticket. It was really interesting. Would 100% recommend, it was also fairly empty so nice to wander around at your own pace and visit everything. Easy to follow information posters and great history! Even as a teenager myself. I loved it too

This place is incredible. The site is huge with tons of catacombs to explore. Some are marked with a must see indicator so don't miss those. There is a free audio narration that really adds to what you'd learn just by reading. If you did everything and listened to all the narration it would take several hours to explore the site. If you're in a rush you can probably do the highlights in an hour and a half.
