Cultural Fortress - Malta is one of the most magnificent, fortified harbours, not in the Mediterranean, but in the world. Fortifications, walled cities, citadels, towers, gun batteries, unscalable walls four meters thick, moats and carefully sited killing grounds. Within this harbour fortress they have built the most beautiful renaissance city of Valletta, a jewel of the Mediterranean. There can be no better way for the curious visitor to the city, to understand it’s rich history and it’s architectural treasures than the three hour stroll through Valeta with the “cultural and food walking tour” Nothing too heavy in terms of walking, nor in eating, but intensely interesting and led by a local gourmet historian, with a nice turn of humour. The food was not up to much, as there appears little distinctive about Maltese cuisine although they do seem to eat a lot of rabbit, possibly to compensate for the low fertility rate of the island. Their fish restaurants though, are quite outstanding. I thought this was 50 euro well spent, and it will leave you with some very fond memories of your Malta visit

Great tour guide, poor food quality. - Our tour guide Maribelle was great very informative and friendly, intresting history and geography of Malta. But the food was poor, dried cake, greasy pastry, gross coffee and then a sit down meal in a basic restaurant. The sandwhich was great. Shame as we really enjoyed the food on Malta and Gozo.
