I was born in Moscow, USSR but for the last 30 years, my home is Malta. In Moscow, I graduated from the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University and in Malta, I took a guiding course at the Institute of Tourism Studies and got the guiding license in 1997. Showing Malta to tourists is not just work - I simply love to take people to different places and help them to discover another Malta, which is not shown in many guidebooks. The Maltese archipelago is very small and some call Malta a "toy country", but, believe me, there is so much to see! The history of these islands goes back to prehistoric times and we are talking about more than 7000 years of history. Why not spend a couple of hours visiting one or two Neolithic Temples? And then, of course, there is Valletta - the city built by the Knights of St. John - with beautiful palaces and churches. Do you prefer medieval times? Then it's the old capital Mdina with its charming narrow streets and houses of local noblemen. There are a lot of other places to visit, so together we can select the most interesting ones and I will create a unique tour just for you.

Overview of your Valletta tour

Getting to know any country is worth starting with a visit to its capital and I would like to offer you a walking tour of Valletta. Starting from the magnificent view of the Grand Harbour from the Upper Barrakka gardens, we will walk around the city, stopping near the majestic palaces and churches (we can visit some of them) and I will tell you the history of the Order of the Hospitaliers - it was the knights of this Order who built today's capital of Malta. Let's try to go back several hundred years and we will try to imagine, how knights and their faithful squires walked along these streets and squares and beautiful ladies rode in carriages. The tour of Valletta will not be complete without a visit to St. John's Co-Cathedral with its famous rich décor and one of Caravaggio's last works - "Beheading of St. John".
