3) Limoncello Making – Duration 45 minutes – ADULTS ONLY

The Limestone Heritage, Park and Gardens is actually a quarry transformed into one of the leading venues in Malta. One of our venues is a citrus garden with lots of orange and lemon trees. The quarry walls provide the perfect sheltered environment for the citrus trees, while our lawns create a lovely ambience for lunching.

Guests visiting our garden will enjoy a detailed demonstration and can participate in making homemade Limoncello. Fresh lemons are picked from our trees and the zest is peeled off, then put into jars and topped with alcohol to rest for two weeks. At the park, nothing goes to waste – peeled lemons are used to make fresh lemonade or, if requested, lemon sorbet.

Chilled Limoncello shots and freshly squeezed lemonade will be served during this activity.
Adults only – contains alcohol. A zesty and fun experience!

4) Stone Carving and Sculpturing – No Minimum Number

You'll be welcomed into our specialized carving studio and taught to work with Malta's soft, yellow stone. Limestone is ideal for carving into beautiful stone sculptures, and we have all the facilities to encourage both established artists and beginners to start chiselling.

Take home a unique piece of Maltese creativity, made by your own hands!
