Description
Discover the magic of Malta’s capital on an inspiring guided walk through Valletta — a UNESCO World Heritage city founded by the Knights of St. John in 1566. Often called an open-air museum, Valletta dazzles with its grand Baroque palaces, imposing fortifications, elegant churches, and breathtaking harbour views. Stroll through lively streets as our expert guide shares captivating stories that bring nearly five centuries of history to life. Enjoy incredible panoramas from the Upper Barrakka Gardens, admire remarkable 16th-century architecture, and take in the city’s unique blend of Baroque, Mannerist, Neo-Classical, and modern styles. During the tour, enjoy 30–40 minutes of free time or opt for a guided visit to the magnificent St. John’s Co-Cathedral (ticket paid on-site), famous for its lavish décor and extraordinary artwork. You may also choose to end your experience with an engaging audio-visual show about Malta’s dramatic past (optional, ticket on-site).
