Valletta City of the Knights 3.5-Hour Walking Tour

During the last 12 years we were never be disappointed by the tours booked by Viator, but this time we were surprised by the failure to comply the predefined schedule. On Viator site it is mentioned that the walking tour, including the visit of St. Johns's co-cathedral, it contains also a little pass through La Valletta harbor on a traditional harbor boat and an audiovisual show about Malta's history. In stead of that after visiting Barracca Gardens and St. Johns's co-cathedral (were the guide did not accompanied us) our guide sad good-by to us. Actually we have spent with her about 1.5-Hour instead of 3.5-Hour. When we have claimed these discrepancies she told us that maybe we had to go on another tour but she picked-up us from the hotel based on our voucher with a certain booking reference number. She was entitled to accept us or not depending on these coordinates.

We had to do a lot of waiting around at the beginning. We were told to go to the pick up point for 9 but the tour started well after 10.00. The tour guide was very informative, though, and the tour was interesting. Valletta is a spectacular city and well worth a visit.

I enjoyed this trip. The walking part was very informative. The view from the Upper Barraka Gardens was impressive although we were only given 10 mins to take photos etc. By far the most impressive part was St-Johns Co-Cathedral which was breathtaking and having a headset to listen to the information about the it made it more interesting.

This was a very good tour based on so much history, really enjoyed the brief film on The Malta Experience at the end as it covered the progression thru history which was very useful in understanding the architecture, the culture, the religious backgrounds.
Most enjoyable!

The tour was in 3 different languages hence a great deal of time was spent explaining. The museums were wonderful as so was the church we visited.
