Valletta

Embarkation

Depart 17:00

Valletta berths in the Grand Harbour beneath the bastions, and a lift from the Waterfront takes you straight up into the city, which is one of the most convenient arrivals in the Mediterranean. Valletta is small and dense: the co-cathedral, the Upper Barrakka Gardens and the harbour views fill a day without a bus.
