Tips from locals
Birgu, Kalkara and Senglea are known as The Three Cities. One can view the cities on a cart & a great laugh at the same time.
From Valletta, you can easily reach the Three Cities. Go to Upper Barrakka Garden and take the panoramic elevator (Barrakka Lift) to go downstairs. Then, cross the street and continue to the left to reach the boat departure point. Tickets are sold inside the boat. Round trip tickets are 2.80€ per person and it’s a 10min trip. It will drop you off in the city of Birgu, the biggest of the 3 cities (the 2 others are Senglea and Cospicua). They all have their unique features but they do have one thing in common; the views over Valletta. The best way to explore the 3 cities is just to wander around on foot! Birgu points of interest include Fort St. Angelo, the Inquisitor’s Palace and the Malta Maritime Museum In Senglea, go to the Safe Haven Gardens at the edge of the city; it has one of the best view over Valletta.
