Ralf Rotheimer Profile
Hello fellow explorers! I'm thrilled to be part of this community of World Heritage Site enthusiasts. My journey into this passion began in 2022 with a visit to Tikal. Witnessing the pride of the local community in Tikal, a site celebrated for its unique blend of natural and cultural heritage, sparked a newfound passion in me.
To my delight, I realized afterward that my previous trips had already steered me toward numerous WHS. Luckily, Europe's rich tapestry of heritage sites had been a backdrop to many of my journeys, unbeknownst to me at the time.
Since that trip, exploring World Heritage Sites has become a big passion. It perfectly matches my love for history with the joy of travel. What excites me most about this journey is that it has not only provided me with a sense of direction but has also taken me off the beaten path, to extraordinary places far beyond the usual tourist trails.

Hal Saflieni Hypogeum
Ralf Rotheimer Germany - 11-Feb-24
As the previous reviews already cover the most relevant facts about visiting the Hypogeum, I would like to focus on the experience of buying the Last Minute tickets and share some tips and observations that might be beneficial to other visitors.
We were visiting Malta over New Year's Eve and as we were not sure yet on which date we could visit the Hypogeum, all of the online tickets were already gone. Worthwhile to note: In the less busy winter season the urge to book weeks or even months in advance did not seem to be that bad. Whenever I was looking up if by chance a ticket slot might open online, you could normally buy entry tickets 2-3 weeks in advance. This timeframe was unfortunately not working for us, as we were staying only slightly more than a week.
