Good Value For Money - Excellent tour with mix of walking, boating and in a mini van. Tour guide was Jacqui, who was very good. Boat excursion into the Grand Harbour was a great add on.

A good half day tour. - The boat trip across the Grand Harbour was spectacular. Although it was a large group the guide Maria managed in both Italian and English.

Fast paced and somewhat disorganised - Exploring the cities and the views were fab. On arrivals at first stop it took an age for the tour to start and the guide could barely be heard. Past city seemed rushed. Not half a day, it was half a day including travel.

Group size too big...boat ride was a highlight! - Seeing and walking through the fortified cities was great .Unfortunately the group size was way too big. The quick boat ride in a traditional Maltese boat around the harbour was a highlight.

Not Happy! - Terribly organised by company. They left my group waiting for 40 minutes at the pick-up location. We contacted them and they sent a Bolt taxi to collect us. They made no attempt to contact us until we reached out. Not good enough! We missed the first part of our tour which we were not compensated for. The tour guide was lovely and the locations great, but we missed one of the sigths because of the delay.

Unknown tour - We were unable to join this tour. Our ship docked in an area requiring a ferry across. We sat on the ferry for 45 min. and were late. The guide left without us. No call or attempt to understand why were not there for the tour.
