Overview of your Valletta tour:

The city of Valletta, Malta's capital is a fine example of a fortified city of the Renaissance located on a hilly peninsula between two of the finest natural harbours in the Mediterranean. The knights of St. John's, now universally known as the Knights of Malta, aided by some of the most respected European military engineers of the 16th century, planned the city as a single holistic creation, with a uniform grid plan within fortified city walls. The grid-planned city is representative of the island as a whole and within its limited boundaries is reflected some of Malta's richest heritage. On our tour we will not only discover the history behind the city, but I will be giving anecdotes and curiosities as we tour our capital.
