Then our group’s guide, Clive Cortis, enthusiastically gave us a whistle-stop tour of World Heritage Site, Valletta, described by Unesco as “one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world”.
Valletta oozes old-world splendour and magnificent baroque architecture, amid a plethora of narrow side streets. There are museums, shops and hidden-away bars and eateries to explore, including popular Da Pippo restaurant.
