Overview

Welcome to Malta's gates to the world and to its culture.This tour will introduce a typical fishing Maltese neighborhood to contrast with the stunning Valletta that will show you how culture, history and contemporary architecture can combine and thrive in the same space. What is commonly known as “The 3 cities”, will offer the chance to dive into the uniqueness of a 3 city-port and its amazing views of the Capital city. Our guide will get you through the most important historical events and will explain Maltese traditions to understand a bit more about this strategic small island (and its people) in the Mediterranean sea.
In Top Private Tours we want you to have an amazing experience, that is why our tours can be customised to you liking! Hope to see you soon!
