Preparing your trip to Valletta: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. Drivers should not forget that left driving is adopted in the city. Local drivers are not the most diligent followers of the traffic rules, so both foreign drivers and pedestrians must be careful.
2. Cafes and bars offer a wide range of alcoholic drinks, but beer and wine remain the most popular ones. Experienced travelers recommend buying locally produced beverages only as they are not only delicious but also reasonably priced.
3. Don’t hesitate to bargain on local markets and in privately owned shops. That will surely help to reduce the final price of the items you’re interested in. Pottery, glassware, and jewelry remain the most popular souvenirs.
4. As a rule, shops open at 9:00 and serve clients until 20:00. Sunday is traditionally the day off. Working hours can be shorter on Saturday.
6. Don’t forget to stock up on local currency when you plan to go shopping. Even US dollars will be useless in local shops and shopping centers. It is possible to exchange money in one of the numerous banks or money exchange offices.
7. Tourists who want to rent a car are required to have an international driving license. The license must be certified at the local police station. This service is free. As a rule, the price of car rental starts from USD$25 a day.
