valletta, malta

Arrival: 08:00 - Departure: 19:00

The small capital of Malta, Valletta, is less than 1 square kilometer in size but offers a wealth of experiences for tourists. Known as one of the most densely packed historical sites in the world, Valletta boasts 7,000 years of history. It's no surprise that the city was officially designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1980. Constructed by the Knights of St John in the 16th and 17th centuries for military and strategic purposes, Valletta was later transformed into a stunning example of baroque decorative art, particularly evident in the beautiful interiors of St John’s Co-Cathedral in the city center. The city's narrow, shady alleyways connect grand squares, and magnificent palaces coexist with bars and shops. Recently, Valletta has undergone significant changes to enhance its urban appeal, including the renovation of the main City Gate, the construction of a new parliament building, and the restoration of the bombed-out Opera House. Valletta's natural deep-water port, the Grand Harbour, is the largest and most impressive in the Mediterranean. For thousands of years, it has been the hub of Malta’s maritime activity. Evidence of this includes the 19 historical warehouses that still stand, dating back 250 years, and the historic Quay Wall, where the Knights of St John and European merchants once unloaded their goods. The Valletta Waterfront serves as the entrance to Malta’s capital city. As one of the most successful Mediterranean ports, the Port of Valletta welcomes over half a million cruise passengers into this open-air museum each year. The waterfront has recently been revitalized into a lively hub of shops, bars, and restaurants, and is especially romantic when lit up at night. The city’s moderate climate allows for a variety of outdoor activities, from diving and sailing to cycling and rock climbing, providing plenty of options for adventure-seeking tourists. However, don't expect Valletta to be bustling all night - its tranquility is a significant part of its allure.

naples/capri, italy

Arrival: 07:00 - Departure: 18:00

Capri is a stunningly picturesque retreat located 5 km from mainland Italy in the Bay of Naples. It has been a renowned beauty spot and seaside resort since the era of the emperors.

Capri is bathed in constant sunshine and proudly upholds its well-earned reputation as a Garden of Eden. Capri town is the primary settlement on the island and can be reached via a funicular railway that operates from the dock in Marina Grande. The town's central square, Piazza Umberto, is a bustling hub that houses a handful of shops, cafes, and restaurants, and is the terminus of the funicular railway. The square is surrounded by the "Torre dell'Orologio", or Clock Tower, and the island's main church, San Stefano. Anacapri, the island's second-largest settlement, is situated a few miles west of Capri town.
