Skandal och oordning: Dark Knights i Valletta - Vandringstur
Beskrivning
Upptäck den kittlande sanningen om de stygga riddarna av St Johns orden och folket de härskade över. Denna tur börjar bredvid Malta Experience på spetsen av Valletta, ta in bakgatorna i denna charmiga stad - och dess saucy förflutna. Observera : Vuxenteman av sexuell natur diskuteras genomgående, så en minimiålder på 16 år krävs. Du kommer att upptäcka historier om sexlivet för dessa rika, uttråkade riddare och höra upptåg av de tidigare prostituerade som blev rika nunnor men sedan ibland misslyckades med att lämna dåliga vanor bakom sig. Hör om den kvinnliga apotekaren som använde trolldom för att förföra rika män och som lät hänga slavar upp och ner och tortera dem. Lär dig de instruktioner som gavs till prostituerade av myndigheterna på 1600- och 1700-talen, och hur riddarna skulle tänja sina egna regler för att lägga kvinnor. Turen avslutas på St George’s Square framför Stormästarpalatset, där du får veta varför en stenpelare på torget en gång visade en varg som hade ett bajs.

Resplan
Turen kommer att täcka hur Knights of St John hanterade sexuella sjukdomar på deras sjukhus.
Hör hur Magdalena nunnorna, en grupp före detta prostituerade, använde denna kyrka och klostret som brukade vara granne - och hur för vissa av dem dog dåliga vanor hårt...
Vandra genom bakgatorna i södra Valletta och hör skandalösa berättelser om kärlek, lust, abort och skenäktenskap.
Se karmelitkyrkans kupol medan du hör den anmärkningsvärda berättelsen om Caterina Vitale - apotekare till riddarna av St John, prostituerad, häxa, slavhandlare och torterare.
Avsluta turen på St George's Square, utanför Stormästarpalatset, och hör hur stormästaren Verdalle från 1500-talet hyste agg mot en kardinal i Rom. Detta fick Verdalle att skapa ett oförskämt och förolämpande monument på Vallettas stora torg, som hämnd mot denne kardinal.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed my stories from Malta's strange but fascinating past 👍🏼
Interesting tour. Guide was very knowledgable and we learnt of different historic stories that are not well known in Malta! Highly recommended.
Thanks for coming and I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed hearing about scandals from Malta's dark but fascinating past 🖤
Super easy to follow, beautiful scenery and entertaining stories the entire duration!
The back streets of Valletta are gritty but beautiful aren't they? I love guiding there and thank you for coming along for this tour.
It was very entertaining and informative
Glad you enjoyed the tour, thank you for coming for a walk on the scandalous side of life 😈
The tour full of history and humor with Mario. Tails and facts on people and happenings you would never discover yourself. Though the group was large, you were able hear the story. I highly recommend if you want to experience a different kind of tour.
Thanks for coming on this scandalous tour! Happy to hear that you enjoyed these stories of naughty knights and nuns - along with the bad-boy priests!
Ohhh Myyyy the NUNS lol - Scandal and disorder Wowww – A Must-Do! If you’re looking for your average, dry historical walking tour, look elsewhere. But if you want a deep dive into the soul of Valletta, this is the one. What an Experience , we spent two hours wandering through the stunning, atmospheric streets of the capital. While Valletta is famous for its hills, the route chosen was surprisingly easy on the joints. It’s a comfortable pace that allows you to actually soak in the surroundings rather than just catching your breath. The real highlight was our Master Storyteller. It’s rare to find someone who balances deep intellect with such an engaging, charismatic delivery. He didn't just rattle off dates; he brought the stones of the city to life. It was clear he has an immense wealth of knowledge, but he shares it with a wit and charm that keeps you hanging on every word. The "Naughty" Side of History is what truly set this tour apart. Usually, Maltese history is presented in a very sanitized, buttoned-up way. This tour pulls back the curtain on the scandals, secrets, and intrigue that you won’t find in the standard guidebooks. Discovering the hidden, slightly scandalous side of Valletta made the whole experience much more intriguing and memorable. My Final Verdict: An absolute 5-star experience. If you want to see the "real" Valletta through the eyes of a brilliant storyteller, don't miss out!
That's such a lovely review, thanks very much! You really understood what the tour was about and I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the experience this much. Hope to see you on the dark side of life again sometime 💀
I organised a hen do in Malta for a close friend and wanted an activity that was both fun and a great way to explore the island. Finding Mario felt like hitting the jackpot! We joined the Scandal and DisOrder walking tour and it was fantastic. Not only did we get to explore the beautiful streets of Valletta on foot, but we also learned so much while laughing at Mario’s engaging and entertaining stories. The tour lasted about two hours and flew by. The tour was in English, and Mario spoke very clearly, which made it easy to follow even for those of us who aren’t native English speakers. We were a group of 12, and he handled everything effortlessly. The price was very reasonable, and I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Malta.
Am so glad you all enjoyed the tour, Martina! You all brought great energy and it was lovely that the bride wanted to take a dark tour for her hen party. Wishing you all fantastic time when the big day arrives - and thanks again for taking a walk on the dark side of life in Malta 🖤
Amazing and entertaining tour of Valletta!!! This tour puts you back into an era and what it was to live in Valletta a few centuries ago.
Thank you for coming! Am happy that you enjoyed our time in the dark shadows of beautiful Valletta
