Beowulfpk Posted May 16, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2007 One of our stops is in Malta, La Valletta. Is it better to take a tour or can you get to the sights by walking on your own? What are the must see sights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjcox9 Posted May 16, 2007 #2 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Malta can be done on your own. Be aware that there is quite a bit of up hill climbing. You don't mention when you're going, so I'll just mention that even when we were there last May, it was quite warm which may also have an impact on whether you want to do on foot or not. There were also horse and carriages available near the port if you'd like to tour that way. This is one port for which I would be up early to watch the sail in. It's pretty fantastic and great photo ops. You may want to check the ports of call section for addtional info. There are various museums and some gardens. Assuming you dock where we did, there is no shuttle bus needed to get to the town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olga77 Posted July 17, 2007 #3 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Take a tour when you're on Malta. You won't be able to visit the whole island on your own. We took 8-hour tour last fall (WM, Costa Concordia). it was tiring but VERY GOOD! Malta was one of the best off shore points that my husnabd and I loved!

Paprizo Posted July 20, 2007 #4 Share Posted July 20, 2007 If you decide to go on your own take the bus to the center of La Valletta. You will find it just outside the marictime station. It costs 1 euro return and save you a very hard walk uphill. Once in La Valletta one of the thing you cannot miss is the cathedral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
