Day 2: SLIEMA – VALLETTA – SLIEMA (15 km – 30min)

Today we suggest you explore Valetta by walking. You will be amazed by the culture, beauty and charm. Often referred to as ‘the city built by gentlemen for gentlemen’, the capital of Malta offers both culture and relaxation. You can start your day with a 30 minutes harbour cruise with gondolas. You can then visit Upper Barrakka Gardens with the lift. At noon time you can enjoy the Gun Salut at Upper Barrakka Gardens with wonderful panoramic views over the Grand Harbor and across to the 3 cities of Senglea, Vittoriosa and Cospicua. From the Upper Barrakka Gardens, a walking tour can follow for about 1 hour and a half consisting of the Valletta Past Castille Palace, Parliament Building and Entrance to St John’s Co Cathedral – one of the top attractions of the Maltese islands, boasting a number of ornate riches, including stone wall designs, as well as a painted vaulted ceiling. One of the most famous artworks in all of Europe is housed here – Caravaggio’s “Beheading of St John the Baptist”. A walk for about 15 minutes will lead you towards to Malta Experience show. The Malta Experience is an audio-visual show that tells the dramatic story of the islands’ 7000 year history. Educational, informative and entertaining, the show runs through the turbulent history of a small island nation that has overcome almost unimaginable odds to survive and prosper. Malta’s Knights of St John are famous for repelling an invasion and their military exploits abroad. But their origins were actually those of peace and caring for the sick. This noble past is revealed on a tour of “La Sacra Infermeria” (Holy Infirmary).

Your next stop can be Ta’ Qali also known as the crafts village. Here you shall visit the Mdina Glass Factory to watch the local artisans at work blowing elaborate glass art pieces, this is the perfect place to pick up some unique souvenirs.

After a short stroll along the promenade, you can enjoy a walk through this historical city, past its main square towards the church of St. Lawrence. From the main square, you can also enjoy a visit to the ‘Inquisitor’s Palace'. This ancient building from the period of the Knights of St John was the dreaded holding place for those plotting against the state. The myth is that most who entered were never heard from or seen again. From Vittoriosa, you can continue further south to the fishing village of Marsaxlokk. This picturesque village is famous for the many multi-colored Maltese fishing boats known as ‘Dhajsa‘ moored in the harbor. On Sunday this village becomes popular with the tourists and the locals for the market along the seafront, so you can enjoy a little free time to wander the local stalls or to simply enjoy the atmosphere.
