What people are saying about Palazzo Parisio, Valletta

Overall rating

3.6 / 5

based on 37 reviews

The tour was nice, the voice was very pleasant and I liked the background soundtrack, it was easy to use and set up. Some tracks were very long for very small things, so you stood there for quite a bit without being able to see much. What I found a bit sad was the fact that the selection of sights sometimes seemed a bit random. The major sights like the Basilica of Our Lady of Mount Carmel or the Triton fountain and some interesting buildings on the way were left out (where I would have been interested on some details) while some very minor and small attractions (like a bakery) were featured quite in depth. Also to make it even more special some authentic background music in between the stops would have been even nicer.

Tracks well done and not too long! The tour could be improved by showing a recommended route to avoid walking too many kilometers.

Takes some getting used to to install but after that it works fine. Got a lot of information.

Great alternative for a spontaneous sightseeing. Prompt replies in case of any questions.
