About this tour
This session looks out over Marsamxett Harbour, the quieter of Valletta's two harbours, as the sun sets across the water. You see boats moored for the night and the view across to Sliema and Manoel Island as the light changes. The camera stays on the public viewpoint throughout.
I hold on the view as the light shifts, pointing out landmarks across the water, and take questions throughout. I send a short note afterwards on what is visible from this side of the peninsula.
It suits anyone who wants a calmer, quieter sunset session away from the busier Grand Harbour side. It also pairs well with the Waterfront evening session on the other side of the city.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included

A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Pastizzi and The Three Cities, worth a slower look.
Good to know
