We had a fabulous, informative walking tour of Valletta. Angêl is an excellent guide. She is knowledgeable and interesting. She brought the old town and walls to life. It was fascinating to learn some of the history of the Knights of St John and Malta itself. I would highly recommend Angêl and the tour.
