We got to the pier early and got a good seat. When the boat left, it was very full, there were (!) about 50 young people on the upper deck, which clouded the view a bit and certainly didn't meet the safety standards. The live explanations of the atmospherically lit buildings in and around Valletta were nice, all in all a nice, refreshing evening drive with it still being 30 degrees.

The tour itself was very nice. But you have to be able to speak English to understand the explanations. There are no audio guides available. Also, the ship was very full and there aren't that many seats, so that many could only stand on the upper deck. But Grand Harbor in the glow of the night was really great.

Goede en plezierige introductie op de geografie van de stad en de havens, aan het begin van een vakantie Valletta/Malta. Afhankelijk van de (on)verstaanbaarheid van het Engels van de kapitein, goede uitleg over de ligging en historiek van de stad. Neem misschien een kaart erbij, om je 'in real time' te oriënteren.
