What to expect
The current city gate is the fifth city gate Valletta has had in around 450 years, the first gate starting in April 1566. In front of it, we will gladly admire Triton's fountain, the first element that comes to our attention before entering the city gates.
Caravaggio's footprint in Malta (With ticket included): Built in the 1570s as the church for the Knights of St John, this magnificent cathedral is Malta’s most visited church and features Caravaggio’s Beheading of St John.
The first building to be constructed by the Knights of St John in the new capital city and enlarged over the years, this Palace is the Office of the President of Malta.
One of the highest points of the City, offering stunning panoramic views over Floriana, Msida, Sliema, and Manoel Island.
Upper Barrakka Gardens
One of the most visited places in Malta and admired by many for their beauty and rich history. The gardens offer a view over Valletta’s Grand Harbour and Vittoriosa’s Grand Harbour Marina.
Republic Street
Republic street is the main road of Valletta and its here that you will find most of the government related buildings. It's primarily pedestrian-only and it is only one kilometer long.
Mdina Main Gate - Baroque gateway
The main entrance to the old fortified city of Mdina will make you feel you are traveling back in time. Through it, you will discover the quiet streets of Mdina and walls that tell the history of the first capital of Malta.
St. Peter's Monastery Museum
The oldest cloister of nuns in Malta. The Benedictine nuns came to Malta in the early 15th century and the church and monastery were established when Giacomo Valguarnera was Bishop of Malta.
Palazzo Falson Historic House Museum
The 13th-century palazzo was the home of Captain Olof Frederick Gollcher (1889-1962). Olof was an artist, soldier, collector and philanthropist.
Casa Gourgion
This privately-owned house from the 19th century, was the Neo-Gothic residence of Baron Giuseppe De Piro Gourgion, known for his piety, eccentricity, and prominence in socio-political circles.
The baroque style building is evidently a dominant structure within the old city of Mdina. The Cathedral is the metaphoric mother of all Maltese churches, and it is also the seat of the Maltese Archbishop.
Howard Gardens
Offer breathtaking views of the archaeological remains of what once was the Roman city of Melite, an ancient city located on the site of present-day Mdina and Rabat.
St Paul's Catacombs
Serving as a burial ground from Punic, Roman and Byzantine times, the St Paul’s Catacombs represent the earliest and largest archaeological evidence of Christianity in Malta.
Domus Romana
Very little was recovered of the noble Roman town house (domvs) itself, but the intricate mosaics and other artifacts that survived for centuries are testimony enough to the original richness of this dwelling.
St. Paul's Grotto
It was here that St. Paul and his missionary party took refuge after their ship wrecked on the island on their way from Crete to Rome. It was after this that they began preaching about Christianity to the Maltese people.
