I would highly recommend this walking tour. - We had a lovely afternoon with our tour guide Chris. He was knowledgeable and engaging throughout our tour and clearly a very proud local..he had a kind word and a cheery hello for many of the local people who we passed during our afternoon. The tour started with a shaded seat where Chris introduced himself to us and us to each other, followed by a potted history of Mdina and Rabat which allowed us to make the most of the sites and stories Chris went on to tell. Chris brought the city and its suburbs history to life with his entertaining style, whilst being mindful of the heat and sun always making any longer stops in shaded areas. There was a stop midway where there was a fantastic view point and a shaded area just near a VERY nice and welcome ice cream shop before heading off again. A thoroughly enjoyable, interesting afternoon. We will Definitely be returning to Mdina in future to explore further. Thank you Chris

Friendly and relaxing tour with the best guide you could ask for - The tour guide, Chris, was great. Friendly, mindful of the heat, knowledgeable and with a great sense of humor! The way he presented the history of the cities and the people of Malta was insightful, and as he connected the dots from the past to the present, we saw history unveil in front of us. The tour was just what we needed, covered all the important points, and the group we were with was also great with people fun to be around. Do not think twice, if you visit Mdina and Rabat. This tour is worth it, both the price, and the company!

You can’t get a better guide than Chris! - We booked our group of 5—one Grandma, 2 adult daughters, 2 teen granddaughters—on Chris’s walking tour of Mdina and Rabat. We all agreed that he was exceptional in every way. It was a broiling hot day and he was thoughtful about placing us in the shade. He was delightful, funny, and most of all he knew his stuff and engaged us with every word. And he knew and had a friendly word in passing with everyone from the mayor, to the bishop, to a local artist, musician, and fish seller. Top, top guide!

Don’t miss out on this truly memorable experience! - If you are visiting Malta and you don’t do this tour, you are missing out on one of the most special experiences we’ve had while traveling. Our tour guide, Chris, is a true local of Rabat and the fact that he so willingly and knowledgeably shared his history and culture with us made us feel so welcomed and we were just left in awe of the beauty and history of Mdina and Rabat. My husband is of Maltese descent (his father was born here) so to have him and our children experience their culture and heritage through the eyes of a real local was just indescribable. On top of that, Chris might be one of the nicest people we’ve met in Malta (or anywhere)! As we walked through Rabat, he knew and said hello to everyone and we even met his Aunt Carmen. Lol. Just such a special experience all around; my kids (teenagers) haven’t stopped talking about it and my husband is already planning on our next trip back. Don’t miss out!

Beautiful Mdina and Rabat - Met Chris the Tour Guide yesterday on this Tour. He was so informative and friendly and is extremely knowledgeable on the buildings/churches and generally these areas as it's his hometown!!! The Tour was lovely. So many beautiful buildings and churches and the lovely quaint streets which lead to several gems along the way are great! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Both Mdina and Rabat are beautiful places to see. I highly recommend it. However, if you have any walking issues, then it may not be for you.
