Overview

If ever there was a town which has escaped the ravages of development and succeeded in keeping its original character, Vittoriosa is the place.
Meet your guide at the ferry landing, Cospicua side and proceed on a guided walking tour to discover Vittoriosa, the most important of the 3 Cities.
Pretty and quaint alleys will not fail to delight you as you walk through the old town where the knights settled when they came to Malta in 1530. The historic centre is characterised by winding streets, replete with buildings erected by the knights shortly after their arrival. Vittoriosa is also a harbour town and its city walls offer fascinating views of the Grand Harbour.
Stop along the city's main square to savour a traditional Maltese platter and a glass of wine/ beer like a true local and taste some of the island typical jams and liquors.
Tour will end along the harbour area from where you can get a gondola ride to discover the Grand Harbour or head to Valletta.
