Attard is at the geographic centre of Malta, about 7 km from Valletta and 6 km from Mdina, and is on the main bus network. Buses 53 from Valletta and 56 from Sliema both stop in Attard; the ride takes 20–25 minutes.
By car, take the regional road from Valletta or the airport — both are about 15 minutes. Parking inside the old village core is tight; the larger streets near San Anton Palace are easier.
Attard makes a good base for visiting Mdina and Rabat, both a short bus or taxi ride away.
