Malta’s magnificent beauty largely stems from the influence of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem, or as they’re commonly referred to, the Knights of Malta, who resided in Malta for nearly 300 years. Valletta, the capital city of Malta, was established by the Frenchman, Jean de Vallette, following the significant siege of 1565. As described by Sir Walter Scott, Valletta is ‘a magnificent city that resembles a dream’, that juts vertically from the seafront. It holds a strategic presence over the island’s historic Grand Harbour - considered to be one of Europe’s most superior natural ports. The city, built according to a grid layout, is a microcosm of the island itself and is filled with abundant history, an assortment of architectural styles, a variety of arts, and a rich culture. You don’t have to worry about missing any significant sights in Valletta, as your private tour guide will ensure you cover everything worth visiting.
