Traveler reviews
Ryan Bugeja
β β β β β 4 months agoWhat a lovely unexpected experience this was. The kids enjoyed it too with of course the highlight being petting the donkeys and feeding grass to the goats and chickens. Restaurant (il-kΔina) is also very nice. But the interactive museum is also really nice and educational. Loved it.

β β β β β a month agoWhat a wonderful place! We did the olive/olive oil tasting tour and really enjoyed it. We first did the main tour which is very informative and you have to admire the skills and strength of the stonemasons of yesteryear. The crowning glory, though was the olive /olive oil taster session with our guide Manuel ( hope I've spelt this right!). He was very knowledgeable and made our visit very personal; what a great host! The setting here is really very beautiful too, and it's easy to see why you would want to host a wedding here! All in all well worth the visit ! Thank you.
