Mdina and Rabat - Angela - Angela- our guide, was wonderful, very knowledgeable, and brilliant at guiding. Her enthusiasm was very clear about the city. The group was fairly large, but the headsets were very good ideas, so we could hear her very clearly while not standing right next to her. The city was exceptionally busy, but she guided us around the less crowded streets and alleyways. She made recommendations about restaurants and the museums. Wignecourt musem in Rabat - well worth extra visit for the catacombs and WW 2 shelter.

Walking Tours - excellent and good value for money - We did the Mdina and Rabat walking tour on Tuesday with Angele and thought it was so good we joined her Valetta trip on Wednesday. Angele is extremly knowledgeable, professional, chooses a good pace and added bonus of recommending other things to do and places to eat during our stay. The trips are also very good value for money. Thoroughly recommend.

Engrossing - Fascinating walk with Angell this morning. It was cold and damp but I scarcely noticed as Angell was so engaging. Clearly passionate about sharing her extensive knowledge of Malta with visitors and with a wry sense of humour I highly recommend this tour.

Let down - The guide was great,very informative without going over the top with facts and figures. The only downside was more than 15 people on the tour which was overcrowded so not enough headsets! My wife is deaf in one ear and didn’t get a headset so very disappointed
