Good and Informative - Good tour of the three cities (tour focused mainly on Vittorioso). Good food, would like to have tasted some more wines though.

Disappointed - In a large group of approx 50 people. It made hearing the guide very difficult unless you were near the front, which was difficult at times given narrow streets and so many people. A handout of the cities main points would have been good. The lunch was good.

Disappointing - This was sold a a 4 hour tour, we were 30 Mts late being picked up the bus then spent 60 mts picking up at various locations. The “3 Cities “ tour consisted of a one hour walk round “one” city and the other two being pointed out. The “Wine Tasting “ was just that, we got a taste but not a drink !!!

The add is misleading... - The add is misleading showing wine barrows thought we were suppose to see wine cellar or winery not much of a wine tasting not much value for the price

Not what I had hopef - Not enough explanation of the history of Malta. Too big of a group so it took way to long to get everyone organized.

Not thrilled with the experience - When I booked the tour, it said choose from 150 convenient pickup locations. I chose a hotel around the corner from where we’re staying. The day of the tour (only after I reached out to confirm my pickup location), I was informed the bus doesn’t come into Valletta and pickup was at a hotel further away (generally not a big deal, but I am traveling with my grandma, so it was a huge deal). Had I not reached out to confirm pickup location, I think we would have been standing where I initially chose and completely missed the tour. We then drove around for almost 1.5 hours picking people up. Then we had to change a bus because the initial bus was only for pickup. 2nd bus was to take us to your starting point. The tour description said walking tour, but it’s 1.5 hours of walking the 3 cities, so, while not the tours fault, my Grandma couldn’t walk that far so we sat on a bench while the tour went without us. So for anyone doing this tour, just know, you walk for about an hour or a little more…if you’re mobility limited, don’t book this tour. We then joined the tour again and went to a restaurant where we had food and wine tasting. The Viator description said light snacks…this was a huge spread of food which was a nice surprise. Good wine. And after you have the choice to purchase wine and olive oil. The tour said 8:30-12:30. We were picked up at 8:40 and didn’t get dropped off until 1:30. Not thrilled with the experience, but the food/wine part was nice.

I only gave this tour 1... - I only gave this tour 1 star because we missed the tour because they change the pick up point. We did receive an e-mail with the change but we had phone problems so we missed the e-mail. Please check your phones for messages. The tour operator was very good and tried to a arrange another tour for free but due to our time in Malta this was not possible. Please give this tour a try.

Not a wine tasting experience! - This is not a wine tasting experience. You get a third of a glass of white, rose and red. In total one glass. Food is ok but it’s in a downtown restaurant , barn type building. Nowhere near a vineyard. The trip is just a walk around streets which is pleasant enough but you get taken into a shop where they try to sell you products. Hard sell which I particularly don’t like. We were messed about being moved from one coach to another. Then after the lunch/wine experience we were made to get on a mini bus which was packed. The guide counted us up, saw we were rammed in, got in the coach in front, kicked off two French people and drove off. The poor French people couldn’t fit on the minibus and so had to wait for a taxi whilst we drove off. Disgusting!
