Visite guidée de La Valette (UNESCO), expérience de Malte (incluse), cathédrale (en option)
Description
Notre visite guidée à pied dans les rues animées de La Valette vous permettra de découvrir la beauté et le charme de la ville fortifiée construite par les Chevaliers en 1566. L'Ordre de Saint-Jean a régné sur les îles pendant 268 ans et a laissé un patrimoine culturel unique dont La Valette est le principal exemple et un site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO. Nous profitons d'abord d'une vue imprenable sur le Grand Harbour depuis les jardins Upper Barracca. Ensuite, nous visitons la cocathédrale Saint-Jean (en option ou temps libre), y compris les chefs-d’œuvre du Caravage à l’Oratoire, les tapisseries flamandes et le musée de l’église. La cocathédrale abrite l'un des plus beaux sols en marbre incrusté au monde. En descendant Republic Street, vous passerez devant le palais du Grand Maître et la place Saint-Georges récemment restaurée avant de regarder Malta Experience (le lundi) ou Malta 5D (le mercredi), une émission audiovisuelle où l’histoire de Malte à travers les siècles reprend vie.

Excellent tour, that covered a lot! Our guide Danielle was knowledgeable and fun. Would highly recommend!
Ville historique, très intéressante à découvrir.La cathédrale est très jolie but too many people. The guide was too fast and did not speak loud enough.
Our Francophone guide was very interesting. She knew how to take us into the history of Malta and transport us to the time of the Knights of the Order. Thank you very much.
Thoroughly worth the cost for Elisabeth’s clear and insightful commentary. A great mix of history of Malta, art history, geography and culture. Elisabeth’s knowledge and delivery was brilliant. She was happy to answer lots of questions and had a lovely smile. So glad she was there for our visit to St John’s Co-Cathedral, we would have missed lots without her. Her insight into Caravaggio and his style of painting was very enlightening too! It was an absolutely pleasure.
Incredible cathedral, We did a walking tour the previous day with Matthew from colour my world. His in depth knowledge provided an excellent background into our trip to the Cathedral. The ornate tombs of the 400 Knights are Incredible. Everything was clean ,the rules are few but very clear . People were adhering to them which is nice to see. The masterpieces on display are stunning. Caravaggios .Beheading of St john the baptist plus the very insightful side exhibit digitally explains the work. You don't need to be an art lover to enjoy this place at all. You just need to be in awe at the work.
Absolutely incredible place, we were there for over 3 hours and there was so much to see and experience, both for us adults and also the son
Great introduction to the history of Malta. A lovely tour through the city of Valetta, with little pockets of free time to explore.
Co Cathedral. The Best!!! Great Tour Guide. Beautiful Places to see. Great Value!!! Thank You for a Great Tour.
Thank you for your feedback which is appreciated.
Enjoyed seeing the sights and the Malta Experience - but the guided talk was no better than we could have read in a travel book - the guide did not bring the city and history to life. We also realised afterwards that entry to the Malta Experience should have gained us access to the Sacra Inferma, but the guide did not point this out.
Thank you for your feedback which is appreciated. Please be aware that the Malta Experience ticket purchased from the venue at €16 per person is a combo ticket which indeed includes a 30 minute tour only in English of La Sacra Infermeria. Our excursion, as clearly stated in the description, is to the Malta Experience as a single entrance EXCLUDING the combo La Sacra Infermeria entrance. Our guides are fully trained to give you all the detail you may find in a guide book, as well as the latest results of ongoing research which have not yet made it into the guide books, whilst at the same time brining the long history of the city to life.
