The Grand Tour of Valletta

Your guide will be picking you up from the Tritons Fountain, make sure you keep an eye out for the House of Tours logo!

The tour will start with a brief introduction of the Knights of St. John, and of the capital city of Valletta. During the tour, we will walk past several auberges, museums, historical houses, churches and monuments. But there is more than just architecture! Your guide will be revealing some of Valletta’s hidden secrets, forgotten stories and scandalous secrets.

The tour will end in front of St. Johns Co-Cathedral, in the heart of Valletta where you could easily finish your visit with a cold brew, a hot meal or perhaps some shopping!

After moving past the main Valletta gate, we will make some more stops as we head up to The Upper Barrakka Gardens. These gardens offer one of the best panoramic views of the Grand Harbour!

Merchants street is quite a rich street, containing interesting auberges, stunning historical buildings and some interesting stories which your guide will mention.

Walking past the long streets of Valletta we will find ourselves next to the Courts of Justice a Neo Classical treasure that adorns this square accompanied by several coffee shops and one of the entrances to the underground passageways of Valletta.

Further down, after we say hello to Queen Victoria we will find ourselves in the heart of Valletta. Here the Grand Masters Palace looks over this large square which has a lot of intriguing visuals.

After travelling through the back streets of Valletta, and after hearing some gossip and hearing about some of the trials of those who stepped out of line with the Knights we will finish off at St. Johns Co-Cathedral. We are only talking about the façade and not entering inside.
