The natural harbour of Valletta is considered one of the largest and most beautiful in Europe. 3 kilometres deep inland, the arms of the Mediterranean in this special bay in the east of Malta, well protected by historic forts. Every year, cruise ships and skippers from all over the world moor in their boats in the Grand Harbour of Valletta to visit the small metropolis from their anchorage. Valletta is a great architectural treasure and rich in culture and history.

You will be picked up by boat from a safe mooring around Sliema and St. Julians. Up to 15 people can be seated on the sleek and modern motor boat and can enjoy drinks such as beer and prosecco on the seats. The boat is an exclusive place for the beautiful harbour tour in the evening light. Valletta is the European Capital of Culture in 2018 and it is said that it was built by men for men. This is noticeable in the imposing facades of the houses that you will receive on the way.

Wonderful decadent luxury

There were four of us and really enjoyed the three and a half hours. The boat is an attraction in itself. Design and equipment leave nothing to be desired. Any time …
