let me make a thumbnail
woohoo can you come please yay we did
it well done it was am
amazing we enjoyed it thank you so much
it was
brilliant thank you thank you guys I
wanted to find a nice good spot in
valeta where I can do the outro so you
can see how beautiful this Arch looks
like and also my full-on
outfit I’m going to rate this train ride
9 out of 10 I’m not giving it a 10 out
of 10 not because of the train itself
but because of all the movement that is
going on here in valeta we had to make
several stops he had to beep many times
because because of course trucks are
parking everywhere cars are everywhere
people are everywhere so it doesn’t give
you that fullon Vibe like the whole
circle without stopping without any
noises or any interruptions at all
overall it was beautiful we saw valeta
from a different angle it was really
nice the ride the people the driver
everyone was so sweet even the people
that were in our cabin they were really
sweet and they went along with my
filming and my friend that was filming

I took a train ride in Valletta, and if you visit Malta this year i highly suggest you to to this tourist attraction! It is one of the best things to do when visiting Malta. The train ride in Valletta is โฌ7 per adult and it goes every 30 minutes starting from 10AM. The pick up location is next to St John cathedral! You get a tour all around Valletta and the best thing is there is a speaker that tells you about the historical parts of Valletta and Malta during the ride. Highly recommended!
If you want to get more information about Malta, i have my very own Malta Guide book that you can download here: https://alexinmalta.com/shop/

Love that train ride alex,I've been on it once or twice on my trips to malta โค
Alex is there could community spirit in Valetta? Is it a place where you can easily find people to count on?
Thanks for the video Alex Valletta has great history wonderful city
LOL 1:22 ๐ Only you could do this Alex, only "you" ๐ DING ๐ You could have walked quicker haha, but it's always fun to take these kind of rides through an area with a guided tour. You should try the "3 city boat ride" one day, we took ours from Sliema ๐ฅฐ… Amazing boat trip (With guided tour on board as well) Quite cheap too from what I remember. Nicer weather coming up so would be a perfect video & amazing content for the views of the 3 cities via a boat trip… ( Just an idea, that I think people would enjoy to watch ) Love & hugs your way, have a lovely evening ๐
