What To Expect

St. John's Co-Cathedral
Your guide will meet you at the entrance of Valletta at 10.00am in front of the New Parliament on Freedom Square and proceed on a 3 hour guided tour of Malta's capital city. 

Valletta, an architectural gem, is a monument in itself founded by the Knights of St John following the victory of the Great Siege of 1565.

Your private tour guide will lead you through this unique city and highlight the history behind the imposing facades. Valletta is a planned fortress city, a living testimony of Malta's rich heritage.

The walk will finish with a guided tour of St. John's Co-Cathedral, the former Conventual Church of the Knights of Malta.

This unique church is one of the finest examples of baroque architecture and one of the world’s greatest cathedrals. (Tickets to the Cathedral can be bought on the day and are not included in the tour price).
