Male Tour Packages

The clean sandy white beaches, emerald waters, and brightly painted houses of Male have put the capital city on the wish list of honeymooners and leisure travellers. It is only befitting that you start your tour of the capital city with a lesson on Maldivian history by visiting the National Museum. This museum is a treasure trove of historical artifacts, ranging from stone objects to fragments of royal antiquities from the Buddhist era to the rule of Islamic monarchs. Don’t miss these three highlights of the museum - An 11th-century coral Buddha head, a 13th century engraved wooden plank from Hukuru Miskiiy, and the Feyli Kolhu worn by the Sultan Ghaazee Mohammed Thakurufaanu-al-Auzam.

The Old Friday Mosque also called the Hukuru Miskiy is a must-visit too for everyone visiting the Island. This ornate mosque is one of the oldest in the city with its origins dating back to 1658. It has intricate carvings, with inscriptions in the Quranic script. Spend a morning here admiring the beauty of the mosque and its tranquil interiors. The city is also blessed with another beautiful holy building, popularly called the Grand Friday Mosque.

A short walk from the Grand Friday Mosque stands an important historical landmark called the Victory Monument. This monument is a tribute to the martyrs who shed their blood to protect the civilians of Maldives from the terrorist attack on the 3rd of November 1988. Take a break from all the sightseeing and lounge away in the spacious Sultan park. The lush greenery and peaceful ambiance of this sprawling park will rejuvenate you for another day of sightseeing.

Male is rife with adventure activities and you will not experience a dull moment in the city. The most popular activity is going snorkeling with coloful fish. However, If snorkeling seems a tad too adventurous for your taste then you can ride in the whale submarine. This submarine tour takes you beneath the surface of the Indian Ocean from where you can see colourful fishes and coral reefs. This underwater tour truly is an unforgettable experience for everyone visiting the Island city.

If you love people-watching and want to see the Maldivian locals go about their daily chores, then spend an hour at the sprawling fish market in Male. The Male local market is also a great place to observe the locals in their element.

A wonderful way to remember a trip is by buying memorabilia unique to the place. In Male, you can pick up souvenirs from a popular street called Majeedhee Magu. The street is lined with shops selling trinkets, garments, and handicrafts and you can spend a busy 2-3 hours shopping for souvenirs to take back home for your home, friends, and family.
