Three Cities Tour
Having picked you up at your hotel, we'll make our way to the Eastern bank of the Valletta port to visit its famous historic cities.
First, we'll cross the Cospicua historic centre (also known as Bormla) which is home to numerous monuments built by the knights of the Knights Hospitaller. Our first stop takes place in the town of Vittoriosa, known as Birgu by the Maltese. We'll tour its delightful medieval centre which was, thanks to its strategic position, was the capital of Malta until 1565. This was the year in which Vittoriosa faced disaster, leading to the construction of a new capital in La Valeta. Do you know what disaster this was?
You'll take in the various monuments in Vittoriosa, such as the Fort St. Angelo, from where it will be clear to see the military importance this enclave once had. From the port we'll launch on board a dgħajsa (the traditional Maltese boat), enjoying a cruise around the Valletta port. The cruise then concludes in the Sengela port, the city where we'll visit the Gardjola Gardens - with some of the best views on the entire island of Malta.
Then from Senglea, we head back to the various hotels in Malta.
