Much of Malta's grandeur is owed to the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem now universally known as the Knights of Malta, who made Malta their home for close to three centuries. Valletta, Malta's capital was founded by the Frenchman Jean de Vallette after the epic siege of 1565. In the words of Sir Walter Scott Valletta is "a splendid town quite like a dream" rising perpendicular from the water's edge. It dominates the island's historic Grand Harbour - the finest natural port in Europe. The grid planned city is representative of the island as a whole. It is rich in history, architecture, art and culture. Your private tour guide will ensure that you won't miss out on anything worth seeing in Valletta.
