Harbour Cruise
When you buy any hop on hop off bus tour ticket, you get a free 90 minutes harbour cruise. Since I still had time in the morning of my last day in Malta, I decided to do the cruise. Leaving from Sliema Ferries, the traditional latini boat took us around Manoel Island, past Valetta and past The Three Cities, then back to Sliema. On this cruise you can see many of the beautiful medieval and British buildings, but also lots of ugly hotels or dilapidated buildings. The Grand Harbour's biggest dock is the second largest in Europe.
