Three Cities Tour

Located to the East of La Valeta port, the towns of Vittoriosa, Cospicua and Senglea, collectively known as 'The Three Cities', boast a rich cultural heritage. This tour offers the opportunity to explore all three historic towns.

Three Cities Tour

After being picked up from your hotel, the journey begins towards the Eastern bank of Valletta port to visit these renowned historic sites.

The first destination is the Cospicua historic centre (also referred to as Bormla), recognized for its significant monuments established by the Knights Hospitaller. The tour continues to Vittoriosa, known as Birgu by the locals. In this charming medieval centre, which served as the capital of Malta until 1565 due to its strategic location, you will explore its rich history. Understanding the pivotal moment of disaster in 1565 that led to the creation of Valletta as the new capital adds depth to your visit.

Significant monuments in Vittoriosa will be observed, including Fort St. Angelo, which exemplifies the military significance that this area once held. Following the exploration on land, you will board a traditional Maltese boat, a dg?ajsa, for a scenic cruise around Valletta port. This relaxing journey will conclude at Senglea port, where you will visit the Gardjola Gardens, offering some of the best views across the island of Malta.
