Length: 2 hours.
Price: Pay what you want. (€10 per person is a good rule of thumb) If you pay more, it is much appreciated 🙏
We will meet inside the Upper Barrakka Gardens (Google Maps link: Inside the Upper Barrakka Gardens). Keep walking further in until you reach two rows of arches with no roof. I'll be in the corner of the arches next to a large stone urn. I will have an umbrella with a silver-top and black-underside.
Please ask for "Ben" 😊
Our route visits the most important sites of Valletta with a significant section that is not visited by other tour groups.
I retain the right to adjust and change the itinerary according to my judgement and due to external factors beyond my control 😊
Above you can see the route we will take.
If there is no more slots on that date & time, please check my FreeTour.com booking page.
If some dates in the future are not available it's because I generally make booking available a month in advance - to avoid unnecessary cancellations (which are rare).
I strongly recommend you visit St John's co-Cathedral before the tour. I believe it's the #1 site of Valletta, if not all of Malta
Entrance is €15, €12 for students or over 60 years of age.
You can buy tickets here (which allows you to skip the queue): https://www.stjohnscocathedral.com/buy-tickets/
An audio guide is included. And I would recommend you leave at least 1 or 1.5 hours for the visit.
It's open Monday to Saturday 09:00 to 16:15.
On Sunday it's only open as a church at specific times. The times can be found here: https://www.quddies.com.mt/churches/361/San-Gwann/Valletta
I've compiled, and continually update, a list of Food & Drink recommendations, which can be visited here: Valletta Food & Drink recommendations.
