Excellent experience - A wonderful experience and worth the expense. Our driver/guide Christopher was super friendly and knowledgeable..always willing to offer insights into the rich history of Malta.

Superb - Christopher was amazing. Very kind and friendly explaining clearly every site and temple we visited . The weather was hot and he had unlimited cold water to keep us hydrated. He take us to try the best pastizzi also he was very flexible and added time for us like 30 minutes to visit one last temple.

Fabulous experience - highly recommend! - We booked the ‘Monumental Maltese Experience’ tour through ‘The Island Traveller’ for our first full day on Malta. This ended up being a great idea for our first trip to the island as it helped to sculpt the rest of our visit. In case people looking at the reviews want to just read a little, let me suffice it to say that this tour was superb and very highly recommended. For more detail - Christopher met us at our resort in a dark suit driving a black Mercedes - already a classy start. His friendliness immediately set the tone for a truly fantastic day. As a guide he was first class - letting us know the agenda and being prepared to adjust the tour to whatever our main interests were. We put ourselves in his hands completely and could not be more pleased. We knew some of what this country was known for and our interests included the prehistoric sights we had heard about. We were completely taken aback by the main temple sites and little known gems that Christopher introduced us to. He directed the pace to our needs and since we wanted to see ‘everything’ we limited the lunch period and were treated to a local street food called ‘pastizzi’. We tried both the ricotta and peas filling versions. We saw several temples and caves, a fishing village, got to stop for a bite to eat and even do a little shopping. We were offered a boat ride as well but had already booked that ourselves so left that out. The wealth of information that we got from our guide’s introduction to the island’s long history, people and culture was beautifully presented. Christopher’s English was flawless and his humor and knowledge a pleasure. It was clear that he loves his job and we absolutely loved our tour.

Excellent private day trip - Had a wonderful private tour of temples, fishing villages and the blue grotto with Mark, who was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and ready to help. Definitely one of the best day trips! Thanks Mark and Chris for making my Malta trip very memorable.

The perfect way to experience Neolithic temples and fishing villages! - This was one of the best days I had in Malta! Christopher, the driver, was so knowledgeable and friendly and kind. It was a fantastic way to see a lot in a short time - 4 temples, 2 fishing villages, a cave, and some other sites pointed out along the way. There was plenty of cold water available for when I needed to rehydrate (on a very hot sticky day!) and Christopher was even able to recommend some other things to see and do. This is a wonderful service and I hope this company does really well, as the whole experience from arranging to meeting the driver to the sites to being dropped off was seamless and wonderful.

Fantastic day - This was the best tour we had during our entire 2 weeks' vacation. Surprisingly affordable for what it was. Chris is an extraordinary host and guide. He helped us see a couple things we were interested in that were not on the schedule and helped us with recommendations for the following days on Malta. He let us go our own pace and explained everything we were seeing with great knowledge. Would highly recommend this tour and any tour Chris does!
