★★★★★9 months agoGreat little museum, lots of interesting bits of history and well produced videos. The staff member at the desk was also very helpful and friendly. Well worth a visit
Geani Alexa
★★★★★4 years agoMy favourite museum in Valletta, so far. Good value for money and we could stay however long we wanted to enjoy the artworks. At the third floor there is a post box dated from Queen Victoria's reign. Impressive! And Peppi is the official mascot of the museum. There are old letters which take you back in the past for a journey that you only heard stories about. The photographs of how the post office used to look are amazing. It was such a wholesome experience for me. And the lady from the reception was such a nice and friendly host, she even recommended some places to visit in Malta and talked about getting her own designed stamp printed, soon! Good luck with that. Thank you for the visit.
