Only a 3 hour flight from Europe's largest cities, Malta is a dream destination.
Malta is well known for its cheap drinks and restaurants – a meal in a good restaurant can cost less than €10 and the classic "red bull vodka" in a nightclub is €2.50! This means less costs for poker lovers who don't want to spend their bankroll in restaurants, bars etc…
