Operated by Uopera tours · Valletta, Malta
You step out of the air-conditioned vehicle onto a sun-warmed street in Valletta and the city opens like a lined map of history: narrow alleys, Baroque facades, and the hush of a cathedral that has watched centuries pass. The guide moves with purpose, pointing out praesidia and palaces, while the Mediterranean beyond the harbour dares you to look for signs of older lives — harbours where galleys once anchored and cliffs where currents shape the shoreline.
