    A tour not to be missed

    A brilliant walking tour of Valletta. Christian the guide had a wealth of knowledge and was really interesting. Going in a small group was so beneficial as you could hear everything being said and enjoy the humour too! We saw things and were given information that we would never have known if we had been on our own. A tour not to be missed and we highly recommend it.

We learned details about Valletta which we would never have known if we had been on our own. A huge benefit is the small group, so you can hear everything being said and enjoy the humour too!

    How many days do you need in Valletta?

    +
