What To Expect

1

Our tour will start with a walk in Valletta, immersing ourselves in the capital city's wonderful art and architecture. From the splendid Baroque structures of the Auberge de Castille and the Grand Master's Palace to the contemporary allure of the Triton Fountain and the newly constructed Parliament building, each edifice we encounter serves as a testament to Valletta's multifaceted charm. Valletta also exists as an ideal enclave for delving into Malta's history, offering insights into the island nation's evolution from the time of the Order of St. John in 16th century, to Malta as a fortress colony of the British Empire in the 19th century, to the independent Republic of the present day.

St. John's Co-Cathedral

The co-Cathedral is found in the heart of Valletta. We will be able to explore this sacred building, once the Temple of the Knights of St. John renowned for its exquisite Baroque artistry and rich historical significance. We will make our way through the co-cathedral's chapels, each a masterpiece in its own right. The church is adorned by priceless masterpieces by renowned artists like Caravaggio and Mattia Preti. From the solemn beauty of the nave to the opulent splendour of the Oratory, every corner of St. John's Co-Cathedral tells a story of faith, devotion, and artistic brilliance.

    We spent two days in Malta, both with Malta Tours. We had an excellent visit primarily focusing on the history of the Grand Knights and WW2. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide and the itinerary served us perfectly. For anyone interested in learning more about Malta and visiting key sites I can thoroughly recommend Malta Tours. If I was to go back I would certainly use them again and would highly recommend them to friends visiting Malta.
