Il-Belt Valletta
About
Malta’s capital is often called an open-air museum, with historical treasures on every corner of its compact streets.

You’ll also encounter magnificent palaces, baroque churches, and panoramic viewpoints that reveal the city’s strategic importance across centuries.
This tour starts at the iconic Triton Fountain just outside the city’s main gate. You’ll walk through the imposing entrance and along Republic Street, passing Renzo Piano’s striking Parliament Building. Along the way, you’ll discover the opulent St. John’s Co-Cathedra...
