What To Expect

Your tour starts with an overview of Male and the harbour area, a very important aspect of any island nation. Passing by the oldest school in the city, learn about the education system and why the Maldives has a 98% literacy rate. Visit Hukuru Miskiiy - Old Friday Mosque and the tomb of Abu -al - Barakaath and learn why the Maldives converted to Islam and how the Islamic faith underpins everyday life. Stop for a refreshing cup of traditional black tea at Royal Garden Café, a popular spot for locals. Housed in a rare example of a ‘ganduvaru’ a nobleman’s house, it provides a great example of traditional dark carved wood interiors. Stopping at the November 3rd Memorial, hear the story of how 8 brave military servicemen died in the protection of their country from a terrorist attack in 1988. Wander through Sultan Park, a reference to the time the Maldives was governed by a sultanate with an optional visit to the National Museum. (Note: Entrance fee not included.) Walking back towards the harbour area, pass by the Grand Friday Mosque and the Islamic Centre, Male's famous architectural landmark and onto Jumhooree Maiden - Independence Square. From here, learn the meaning of the Maldives national flag and pick out key government buildings. Heading west along the harbour, visit the bustling fish market and the local market, where the sights, sounds and smells will fill your senses. Chat with the local stall holders and taste tropical produce and homemade sweets. The tour finishes at the top of one of the city's tallest buildings, providing a great back drop to your final tour photo image!

We booked this tour two days in advance because there is not a lot to do on Male. We got to the pick up place at 1:45. The tour was suppose to start at 2. No one showed up. No texts in advance let us know anything so we could have plan something else. No sorry we're running late. We stayed there until 2:25. So we were very upset to say the least. So be warned.

Very ambitious, knowledgeable and nice guide! It would be easier to understand, for example, the history of the Maldives if the details were removed and the story was given a clear structure. Thanks for an interesting excursion/tour!

It was too hot and humid for this kind of tour, our mistake, but the guide stopped in the shade and always had a space for us to sit down while we listened to his stories and great information, we had a stop In an air conditioned resto for a drink, thank goodness, that stop revived us! Very good all in all

Wonderful tour lead by Ube. Meeting point was fairly easy to find. Was a hot day and we were grateful we could find shade to stop and chat about the stops along the way about the history and current life of Malè. It was an easy pace and time flew. We loved the fish & food market with a shared passion of the ocean. The stingray spot was amazing on the waterfront.

We had a wonderful time touring Malé with Rumey. She was very knowledgeable about the areas and events in the city and even took us to the display on the 20th anniversary of the tsunami at the museum. She’s very proud of her city and let us know!
