Valletta Holidays

This enchanting walled city is a sight to behold where palaces, museums and gardens co-exist. Built by the Knights of St John, its Baroque beauty is undeniable with buildings dating back to the 16th century. It may be the smallest capital in Europe, but its density of sights has earned it a UNESCO status.

Cobbled streets sit unchanged bearing testimony to Valletta’s vast history, while trendy cafes show off the city’s modern side. Its compelling Grand Harbour is one of its biggest attractions with most tourists heading to its Upper Barrakka Gardens to take in amazing vistas.
