Much, much, much more than just a tour! - A tour of a gem of a Baroque theatre, a highly informative talk and a wonderfully entertaining performance all rolled into one and presented by a very talented and creative actor. A truly unique experience!

The Grand Tour is Excellent. 10 out of 10. - This was the highlight of our holiday. Well worth every penny. Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. He told us all about the history of this theatre but included much about the history of acting, Malta and the Knights. A MUST for any visit to Valletta.

Short break in Malta - We had book tickets to have a tour of the theatre we were both a little apprehensive, however we had a excellent time. Jeremy's tour was both informative and fun. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND it even if you are not into Oprah/Shakespeare go and book it. Fun, informative and beautiful.

Put this at the top of your list of things to do in beautiful Valletta❤️ - This little jewel of a theatre is a time capsule of history and the cultural development of Malta.
The comprehensive and illuminating tour conducted by accomplished actor and tour guide Jeremy Grech was fascinating.
Jeremy brought to light the former life of the theatre with a compelling freshness and vivacity that had us completely enthralled and entertained with skilfully woven stories, inviting participation from the audience.
I only had a couple of days in Malta, and was delighted that I had prioritised this experience at the top of my list, because it was well worth every moment.
Bravo, Jeremy!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A wonderful guide, a beautiful theatre - A first-class tour of a beautiful theatre by a knowledgeable, fun, professional guide. My husband and myself are lifelong theatregoers, performers and more recently directors; we learned a great deal, and thoroughly appreciated the friendly, inclusive and entertaining work of our superb guide. Highly recommended. PS Thank you for allowing me to take the stage myself! :)

A fun an interesting tour of a historical Valletta landmark - A fun theatrical tour which retraces the rich history of this building. Not only do you visit the main theater room, you also get to see the backrooms and the artists's entrance.
The tour guide was very friendly and entertaining.

Amazing theater hidden behind historic walls in Valletta - We found out about the animated grand tour of Teatru Manoel just by chance last week when we roamed the narrow streets of Valletta. I entered the ticket office simply to ask whether it is possible to visit the theater and found out that there are two options available - a shorter 20 minute tour and an hour animated tour.
Tuesday this week we decided to take the animated tour conducted by Jeremy dressed in befitting costume. Jeremy is very knowledgable, not only about theatre and its history, but about history and theatrical performances in general, and it was a lot of fun being guided by him around the outside of the theatre and through various corridors and rooms to finally the major attraction, the theatre itself. The tour was very interesting and Jeremy maded it a really unique experience.
Anyhow, whichever tour you chose it is definitely worth visiting the theatre, whether tourist or local, to admire the splendour and grandeur of the interior of the theatre.
