1. Fort Manoel is a star fort on Manoel Island in Gżira, Malta. It was built in the 18th century by the Order of Saint John, during the reign of Grand Master António Manoel de Vilhena, after whom it is named. Fort Manoel is located to the north west of Valletta, and commands Marsamxett Harbour and the anchorage of Sliema Creek. The fort is an example of Baroque architecture, and it was designed with both functionality and aesthetics in mind.

2. Fort Saint Elmo (Maltese: Forti Sant'Iermu) is a star fort in Valletta, Malta. It stands on the seaward shore of the Sciberras Peninsula that divides Marsamxett Harbour from Grand Harbour, and commands the entrances to both harbours along with Fort Tigné and Fort Ricasoli. It is best known for its role in the Great Siege of Malta of 1565.

3. Valletta is the Capital City of Malta which is noted for its fortifications, consisting of bastions, curtains and cavaliers, along with the beauty of its Baroque palaces, gardens and churches. It's a must to visit the Capital, but it's also a must to admire the City from the sea aboard a fully air-conditioned catamaran with live commentary.

4. Fort St. Angelo is a bastioned fort in Birgu, Malta, located at the centre of the Grand Harbour. It was originally built in the medieval period as a castle called the Castrum Maris. It was rebuilt by the Order of Saint John as a bastioned fort called Fort Saint Angelo between the 1530s and the 1560s, and it is best known for its role as the Order's headquarters during the Great Siege of Malta of 1565. A major reconstruction to designs of Carlos de Grunenbergh took place in the 1690s, giving the fort its current appearance. Admire the beauty of Fort St Angelo aboard our fully air-conditioned catamaran with live commentary.

5. Esplora Interactive Science Centre at Bighi is Malta’s latest visitor attraction which was officially opened on 28th October 2016. Passengers are able to stop at Esplora and catch the next harbour cruise or hop on the south bus route with our double decker open top bus or simply explore the Three Cities

   5 Min.

6. Vittoriosa, Senglea and Cospicua, known as the Three Cities of Malta, are pieces of living history kept alive by hundreds of years of preservation, and the occasional miracle. The fortified cities sit like a trio of villages in the heart of Malta's historic centre, directly across the Grand Harbour from Valletta. Admire the Three Cities aboard our fully air-conditioned catamarans with live commentary.

7. The harbour mouth faces north east and is bounded to the north by Saint Elmo Point and further sheltered by an isolated breakwater and is bounded to the south by Ricasoli Point. Its north west shore is formed by the Sciberras peninsula, which is largely covered by the city of Valletta and its suburb Floriana. This peninsula also divides Grand Harbour from a second parallel natural harbour, Marsamxett Harbour. The main waterway of Grand Harbour continues inland almost to Marsa. The southeastern shore of the harbour is formed by a number of inlets and headlands, principally Rinella Creek, Kalkara Creek, Dockyard Creek, and French Creek, which are covered by Kalkara and the Three Cities: Cospicua, Vittoriosa, and Senglea. The harbour has been described as Malta's greatest geographic asset.

• 5Good value and well worth it on any Valletta trip

  Great tour around Valletta harbour. Only issue was finding the right jetty as there are dozens of tour boats along the waterfront.

• 3Pleasant

  A nice hour and a half around a lovely location with a few bits of information every now and again. We found out more from the man sat behind us to be honest. Wished it was for longer! Alright for 20 Euros each to get us out of the August heat on the front.

• 1I would not recommend this Cruise tour.

  We purchased tickets from one of the counters near the actual cruise itself, which was scheduled to depart at 12:30 p.m. As a family with children we boarded the ship at the scheduled time. There were only our family and two other passengers on board. At approximately 12:30 p.m., we were informed that the cruise had been cancelled because there were not enough passengers. We were told that we could return for the next cruise, which I understand was scheduled for around 2:45 p.m. We would have been happy to do this and continue with our plans. Unfortunately, the way the cancellation was communicated to us completely changed our decision. The member of staff who informed us was extremely abrupt and rude. When we asked why the cruise was being cancelled, we were simply told that the cruise was cancelled due to not enough people and that we needed to get off the ship. There was no apology, proper explanation, or attempt to assist us in a polite and professional manner. I appreciate that cancellations can happen, particularly when there are not enough passengers. However, the way a situation like this is handled makes a significant difference to a customer's experience. In this case, the member of staff's attitude was so unpleasant that, although we would otherwise have taken the 2:45 p.m. cruise, we decided not to use this service again and instead made alternative arrangements with another cruise company. As this member of staff was representing I See Malta, I believe this matter should be taken seriously and that the team would benefit from additional customer service training. I wrote a email of complaint to the customer service team and within this I also asked for a full refund for the tickets we purchased.  It is disappointing, as we would have been happy to continue using this service if the situation been handled with a little more courtesy and professionalism. We got a response from Mostafa, who I can see has responded to a number of 1 star reviews on trip advisor. Mostafa’s email response only focused on acknowledging the refund and he took no time to look at or even acknowledge the issue of how the staff communicated to us. Still awaiting to hear back and also get a refund.
