First, the walking tour with Elena was fantastic. She has a passion for Valletta and Malta. Second, when one of the sites was having trouble getting their systems to read the pass, the manager, Mariella, asked to speak with them directly to clear up the misunderstanding. You get entry to tickets as part of this package, so you'll need to be purposeful how you spend your time. You could easily spend an entire day at many of these locations.

Sitting up high, wind on our faces, Beautifully lit spaces was a wonderful thing!!!! However, we were the last pick up and had to sit inside bottom for the first half of the trip… so ask about pickup locations! Might want to eCab to a closer starting point????

Insightful guide that provided a lot of advice on Valetta. Because it's low season, I was the only one on the excursion so it was shorter as it was one on one.

Tour was good.nice to see the night lights. Sites went by fast so need to pay attention. Audio tour was extremely helpful.

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