VALLETTA, MALTA
Experience Malta’s history from the water with this Harbour Cruise.
We start our tour today by travelling to Sliema, where we shall embark our boat. Onboard we will witness Malta’s living past from the water as we ply around the two natural harbours on either side of Valletta – Marsamxett Harbour and the Grand Harbour.
A detailed commentary will unfold the history of the three cities of Vittoriosa, Senglea and Cospicua – connected with the two great sieges of 1565 and 1942 – as well as other places of notable interest. These include the historic forts, settlements and various creeks. We can enjoy a non-alcoholic drink as we soak up the sights onboard.
On completion of our harbour cruise, we can enjoy some free time in Valletta before we return to our ship.
TOUR NOTES: This tour is dependent upon favourable weather conditions. It involves walking from the coach park to the boat, and vice versa. Uneven ground will be encountered, and there will also be steps to negotiate to embark and disembark the boat, which has toilet facilities onboard. The boat will not be exclusive to Fred. Olsen passengers. Walking during our period of free time is at the discretion of the individual. Our harbour cruise will last for approximately one and a half hours. Please note that the roads in Malta can be bumpy. For reference, shops are closed on a Sunday, although there is a flea market in Valletta on this day.
