Cần Quan Tâm
Cospicua (Bormla)
You’ll begin your tour with a panoramic drive through the historic city of Cospicua, the largest of the iconic Three Cities. This double‑fortified harbour town is framed by Senglea to the west and Vittoriosa to the east, creating a dramatic entrance into Malta’s maritime heart. Cospicua is renowned for its impressive dockyard and its magnificent defensive walls, including the Santa Margherita Lines and the Cottonera Lines—remarkable fortifications that stand as enduring symbols of the island’s military past.
Birgu (Vittoriosa)
Vittoriosa is the oldest of the Three Cities, with roots stretching back to the Middle Ages. Over time, an extraordinary mix of civilizations—including the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, Angevins, Aragonese, and ultimately the Order of the Knights of Saint John—shaped this remarkable city into a true open air museum. Ideally positioned along the Grand Harbour with natural deep-water anchorage, Vittoriosa boasts a long and distinguished maritime, mercantile, and military history. It became the Order’s headquarters and the de facto capital of Malta from 1530 to 1571. Its heroic defence during the Great Siege of 1565 remains one of the city’s proudest chapters. We will take a leisurely walking tour through Vittoriosa's narrow, winding streets—each corner revealing historic palaces, ancient auberges, charming piazzas, and centuries-old architectural treasures.
