An unforgettable experience - I went with 20 students, aged 8 to 10 years, who attend summer school at Marsaxlokk. The guides provided handouts for the students, and replied to the students' many questions in a way which the students could understand. The tour piqued their interest and they enjoyed themselves immensely. Definitely recommended.

This tour is excellent - The self guided tour of an historic building was interesting and unusual with special effects and hologram and you also have access to the large outdoor balcony with excellent views of the 3 cities and harbour. Highly recommended. Thanks also to Matthew for helping

A can’t-miss, unique experience for those visiting the Maltese Islands! - Definitely an experience worth a visit for those looking for some newness in town! This is the first and only augmented reality museum in Malta, with lots of fun, interactive games for children and families and a well-thought museal journey! You’ll have a full-immersion in the history of the Knights of Saint John and Valletta, together with the famous Hologram Room where you can directly engage with Jean Parisot de Vallette, the founder of the city! The Customer Care Team could not be more helpful and everything seems to be well-organized, well-kept and well-looked after. Keep up the great work and ad maiora! 😊

Lively experience of history Valletta - I loved the big spaces and the new and unexpected ways of discovering the history of Valletta, really makes it come alive! As it was not expensive at all, also good to combine with some of the other AR/VR experiences in the city.

Innovative and interesting experience - This amazing experience gave me the chance to relive the history of Valletta in an interesting and innovative way! Fun and enjoyable, this tour succeeded to emerge me in a different reality. With the help of the specially designed app, it was really engaging and informative to discover interesting facts about the capital of Malta and to take a picture with different characters from the past. I recommend this tour, especially to families with children (who can also play two games with the app)!

Very nice experience - The building itself is very charming and beautiful and has a great history. The information given through the application is very thorough and interesting. The price is very good for such an experience. The only downside is that you sometimes lose track because not all routes are defined. Also the app can be a little more worked on in terms of augmented reality experience. Overall, it is worth it.

Recommendable for those in search of unique experience - Reliving The Sacra Infermeria is recommendable for those who want to experience the history of The Nights of Saint John's in a unique way. The provided application gives elaborated and very extensive information about everything you want to know concerning the hospital of the Knights of St John. Although the concept is remarkably fresh and innovative, the Augmented Reality within the app could use some refreshment.
