Excellent! Don't miss this tour! - Mark truly cares about his customers and about Malta! We truly enjoyed our half day tour, in a very comfortable vehicle, seeing all of the highlights we wanted to see in Malta. Malta is a fascinating country, and this is an excellent way to learn and see more in a short period of time. We shared the tour with another couple and it was absolutely a perfect size group to tour with. I would highly recommend Mark and this tour!

Blue grotto fun in Malta! - Tour was great. Chris was exceptional!! The driver knew his way around town and was very knowkegable to the history and current events of Malta. Pleasant, helpful and overly accommodating (we had an issue that needed some extra help and Chris was amazingly at our service!!). Blue Grotto is an absolute must see!!

Malta tour - Had a great tour with Chris as our guide. He told the passengers information about the area during driving time, and we explored the locations on our own. Blue grotto is beautiful (additional 10 euros pp/cash). Be sure to walk through the small old lookout building located close to the restrooms. Mdina was the next stop and it was interesting. Lastly we had the option to be dropped off at Valletta (instead of the cruise port). It was a good way to see the island since our time in port was on the shorter side.

Morning in Malta - Mark was very knowledgeable and very good company and the tour was great. A few things to know: the meeting point is near the taxi stand at the Valleta port, which is only a very short walk if your ship is docked there. Private tour vehicles are not allowed to wait there, so the driver has to be sure that everyone is there before he pulls up. He is very reachable by Whatsapp, so we knew he was on his way. Secondly, the ticket for the Blue Grotto boat ride is not included in the price because the boat rides are EXTREMELY weather dependent. They are 8-seater open boats that take you to a number of caves and the addition 10€ price is totally worth it if the boats are running, but they are not guaranteed to be running. We were able to go, but they were not available in the afternoon due to high winds. It was a really enjoyable morning in Malta!

Not a tour--more like a glorified taxi ride - I thought at first that this would be a great "tour" of Malta, taking us to all the highlights. The driver did provide some commentary. However, it is NOT a guided tour of Malta. The driver tells you a little bit about each location and mainly just drives you there. Your time in Mdina and Valletta is on your own. You have to pay for a boat ride (10 euros) at the Blue Grotto which they did mention in their listing. And the Dingli cliffs was just a quick picture spot. The driver was nice and extended our time at the other sites. He also gave us the option of being dropped off either at the cruise port or in Valletta where we could explore that more.

Late - Tour guide showed up 20 minutes late! Very stressful for all the people involved. Blue grotto was amazing but the rest of the tour was shortened because of his tardiness

Blue grotto! - The blue grotto was beautiful and worth the trip. However I was promised time to swim that I didn’t get. There were 17 people in a 16 person min-van with the a/c not adequate. We were all sweating. A positive is we got a free guide in Olympia and she was excellent. The communication system couldn’t be heard by half the van and by most when we were walking. They didn’t tell us when to come back even though the driver argued with me that they did. We had to pay separately to get the boat to the caves. It should be included.
