Operated by Anna Diehl · Valletta, Malta
You step off the air-conditioned minivan into a town that leans toward the sea—limestone facades warming under a Mediterranean light, and gulls arguing with the harbor’s constant hiss. The day moves fast: a coastline of sea caves and arches that dare you to look too close, the hushed lanes of silent Mdina, and the stone-clad grandeur of Valletta with its bastions and St. John’s Co-Cathedral.
