La sombre histoire de La Valette - Visite à pied
Description
La Valette est une vieille ville, avec des histoires sombres à raconter. Cette visite à pied commence à la statue de Jean de Valette derrière l'Opéra Royal. Vous découvrirez la vérité sur cet homme légendaire et redoutable, le fondateur de la capitale de Malte – et comment il n’aimait pas Malte. Vous découvrirez également comment le fantôme du chevalier du XVIe siècle Oliver Starkey a hanté une maison dans les années 1990, et comment il y cause encore des problèmes aujourd'hui. Voyez l'endroit où les gens étaient autrefois punis en public, et découvrez pourquoi un grand crochet métallique trouvé dans une rue latérale de La Valette a un lien avec le célèbre amiral britannique Lord Nelson. Vous entendrez également la lettre choquante qu’un homme malade d’amour a envoyée à la femme qui l’obsédait, peu avant de l’assassiner, et apprendrez pourquoi des centaines de garçons sont entrés dans une église – mais n’en sont pas ressortis vivants. Tout cela, et plus encore, lors de la tournée The Dark History of Valletta. Veuillez noter que La Valette a des collines et des marches donc une quantité raisonnable de fitness est nécessaire

We did a private evening tour of Valletta with Mario. He is a fabulous tour guide; hugely entertaining, engaging and informative. He really brought the streets of Valletta alive for us. I wasn’t sure what our 14 and 10 year old would think of a two hour walking tour, but they loved it and wanted Mario to take us around the rest of Malta! I would highly recommend.
That's such a lovely review, thank you so much! It was a real pleasure to take your family around the shadowy back streets of Valletta. I'm glad the girls enjoyed it, they brought great energy and were very attentive the whole time 🖤 Hope to see you guys back on the dark side of Malta someday 💀
An Unforgettable Look into Valletta's Dark Past! We recently took the "Dark History of Valletta" walking tour, and it was absolutely fantastic. The stories covered everything from ghosts to high-profile murders and historical sexual scandals. Our tour guide was excellent and incredibly knowledgeable. It was clear that an immense amount of research went into crafting this experience. The storytelling was top-notch, keeping us completely engaged from start to finish. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Valletta!
Thank you Pieter! I have spent years researching the darker side of Valletta's past, so I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed the stories so much 🖤
We really enjoyed the Dark History of Valletta tour on 7th July. The stories were fascinating and gave us a completely different perspective on the city, with plenty of dark tales, mysteries and history. Mario was an excellent guide – knowledgeable, engaging and a great storyteller who kept us interested from start to finish. Highly recommended if you're looking for something a little different in Valletta!
