Gibralter vs Malta
Hi guys
I am taking my mum (late 70s) and my ex mum-in-law (late 60s) on holiday for a week. We had originally booked Sicily but that has fallen thru as they now say they can't do single travellers (even when a suppliment was offered!) So I now have two very upset OAPs.
I am now scouring the likes of lastminute.com etc and have come up with two alternative destinations : Malta or Gibralter.
Which one is the best option do you think?
They are both fairly active, love shopping and sightseeing. So I want somewhere with enough old ruins, towns, things to do as well as somewhere with a pool etc where they can have chill out days too.
Any of you guys that have been to either can you give me your opinion on how suitable either would be. ta

i have only ever been to Malta, passed by Gibraltar, on way to spain.
However i loved Malta, something for everyone, great scenery, lovely people, Valletta great city, sorry that might not be correct spelling, and best of all is you could visit Gozo which i consider a little gem, not far by boat and The Blue Grotto is something special. I spent a very happy time there, food good, all mixes, because it has been occupied by so many people over the centuries, arab, british, spanish i think, you name it. It was recommended to me by a mate, and i loved it. There are bits that are very touristy, and some where all the young hang out, and night life can be loud, if you want a quiet time, not having been to Gib i can't compare it.
