Harbors to Coast and Culture Full day Tour from Malta
Valletta City Gate
The current city gate is the fifth city gate Valletta has had in around 450 years, the first gate starting in April 1566. In front of it, we will gladly admire Triton’s fountain, the first element that comes to our attention before entering the city gates.
St. John’s Co-Cathedral
Built in the 1570s as the church for the Knights of St John, this magnificent cathedral is not only Malta’s most visited church, but also home of a Caravaggio painting.
The Grand Master’s Palace
The first building to be constructed by the Knights of St John in the new capital city and enlarged over the years, this Palace is the Office of the President of Malta.
Hastings Gardens
One of the highest points of the City, offering stunning panoramic views over Floriana, Msida, Sliema, and Manoel Island.
Upper Barrakka Gardens.
One of the most visited places in Malta and admired by many for their beauty and rich history. The gardens offer a view over Valletta’s Grand Harbour and Vittoriosa’s Grand Harbour Marina.
Republic Street
Republic street is the main road of Valletta and its here that you will find most of the government related buildings. It’s primarily pedestrian-only and it is only one kilometer long.
Marsaxlokk Harbour
This very unique and incredibly colorful village is home to thousands of Luzzus, these typical maltese fishing boats.
Blue Grotto Il-Hnejja
In this viewpoint you can appreciate a network of six caves, boasting the most stunning views and clearest waters the Maltese Islands have to offer. This is one of Malta’s most popular natural attractions.
Birgu (Vittoriosa)
This fortified city is known for being the first home of the Knights of the Order of St John, who settled on the island in 1530. As such, it contains some of the most historic palaces, churches and noble homes in Malta.
Cospicua (Bormla)
The largest of the Three Cities. While much of the city was destroyed during numerous battles over the course of Malta’s tumultuous history, it has been proudly rebuilt.
Senglea
Senglea is a small, fortified city on a peninsular parallel to Vittoriosa. A pedestrian bridge connects it to its larger neighbor and two grand forts – Fort St Michael and Fort St Angelo.
