Description

The history of Valletta is representative of that of the whole island: a mixture of influences from all the foreign powers that ruled it in turn throughout the centuries.

Built by the Knights of St. John, Valletta quickly became a very important and cosmopolitan harbour city and a perfect place through which foreign culinary practices and new exciting ingredients would have been able to enter the island.

This tour is full of fascinating historical anecdotes specifically related to food, and is thus very different from your normal sightseeing tour. Most of the stories will not be found in any guide book but are nonetheless a fascinating insight into the lesser-known parts of Malta’s history and culture.

In addition, you will get to sample authentic traditional Maltese food and drinks in a number of stops during the tour.

The guide will also provide tips on where and what to eat during your stay in Malta, as well as the best places to shop for authentic Maltese food.

Don’t miss this fascinating insight into Maltese culture.

Food Tour in Valletta

We had a great food tour. We tasted a lot of different local specialties, including drinks. Besides the food, we also get a good insight into Malta`s / Valletta´s history. I especially enjoyed the lunch at the end, which took place in an indoor market place. I can just recommend it!

Great food tour!!!

Matthew did a great tour! We enjoyed our time in Valletta and the food we got to taste was wonderful - a great assortment of delicacies. We still are not hungry this evening! Thanks again!

Worth every penny!! Totally recommended!

We met the guide at Valletta city gate, next to the parliament building. During the tour we tasted several Maltese food tasting which we would have not done it on our own. Additionally the guide has explained the history behind it and how it ended up to be a Maltese dish. The food tasting provided is enough to replace breakfast and lunch. Totally worth it, when considering how much we paid including food and guide. It is highly recommended!
