The Malta Tourism Authority had just launched a new themed trail dedicated to families with kids to entertain, and it's a veritable treasure trove of fun things to see and do on the islands! Highlight of the trail include myriad activities, sites and experiences for both parents and children to enjoy.

Families can discover the islands’ history, natural landscapes, marine habitats and parks, all against an idyllic Mediterranean backdrop. The map names experiences such as quad-biking adventures in Gozo, whizzing around Valletta on Segways, and pirate, fairy tale and Maltese Knights fancy dress experiences at Playmobil Funpark.

Other family-friendly tourist attractions include heading to Esplora Interactive Science Centre, discovering Malta’s extensive history at Malta 5D, marvelling at Malta’s underwater wonders at the National Aquarium and so much more.

Who knew there were so many great things to keep kids occupied on the islands? (Well, we did, but we're not bragging or anything...)
