Malta tour of Old and New! - We did this tour on a very hot day in Malta but really enjoyed the time with our guide Christian. He was clever and knowledgeable of the background of the city & country through the centuries. He is a full time guide from the island who knows his stuff. Tour pace was good with frequent stops and many steps. Lots of things to see, do, and eat in the city. Actually could have spent more time there but we had to get back to the ship for departure. Highly recommended tour with a good small group experience.

Fantasy Tour - This was a wonderful tour to do. We loved the fact that the group was a small group. We got to know others and them us. Our Tour operator Chris was amazing. He was so knowledgeable and fun. We learnt such a lot about the history of Valletta, things that were happening there now and even had some food recommendations. It was brilliant and I would highly recommend.

Fantastic tour with knowledgeable guide - Well presented tour with a charismatic Maltese guide who knew his stuff and was able to answer all of our questions, with understanding and humour.
Being a small group was beneficial and felt more personal. 21/2 hours of facts and history that you may not normally pick up. Would highly recommend.

Best tour guide ever. - Thank you so much for allowing us to join your tour last minute. Perhaps it was meant for us to miss our original tour because you had so many fascinating stories, not to mention the most thorough and complete history of Malta. Was fascinating, fun, beautiful and exciting. AND you remembered everyone’s name, where they were from and something about our country. Very impressive. Thank you, thank you, thank you 😊 if you come to western Canada, we’d love to hear from you.
