Valletta & surroundings off the beaten track

Keen to see Valletta from an entirely different perspective? Hop on your bike! A year and a half ago hubby-to-be and I invested in two mountain bikes. Best buy ever! And today, after almost six years on the rock, we explored a few must-sees and discovered some hidden gems in what is arguably the most beautiful and romantic city in the world… our very own capital, Valletta.

9 a.m. Upper Barrakka Gardens. Unbeatable views.

9.20 a.m. Pit stop at Saint Barbara Bastion.

9.30 a.m. Espresso break at The Malta Experience with a view of the Three Cities and the Valletta breakwater.

 

10 a.m. Trying to find the new breakwater bridge (still under construction). Enjoying the view of the concrete jungle that is Tigne' Point.

10.45 a.m. Discovered a “secret” spot with amazing views: Sa Maison Garden.

11 a.m. Just a few minutes down the road: Msida parish church and marina.

I can't imagine a better way to kick off a sunny Sunday!
