The island of Malta sits at the strategically important narrowing of the Mediterranean between Sicily and Tunisia, with the consequence that for millennia the island has been coveted, colonised, invaded and defended by everyone from bronze age tribes and Phoenicians to the Romans, the Moors, Crusader knightly orders, the French and eventually the British. The result? An island with virtually unparalleled history and an extraordinarily rich cultural blend (the Maltese language, for example, is part Arabic, part medieval Sicilian Italian and part English) which is especially prominent in the capital city Valletta,
a World Heritage site described by UNESCO as 'one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world.'

4.8/5
The usual amazing experience we have come to expect from Original Travel! Our guides throughout the trip were absolutely excellent and such nice people. Also, your meet and greet representative at Gatwick gave us absolutely outstanding service. There were so many highlights, but our private tour of the Casa Roca Piccola in Valletta was definitely at the top.
