5.00Our guide, Stephen Grech made the tour! He was very knowledgeable about the history of the Island and overall a nice person to talk with. The food was delicious, but even my 12 year old said the highlight was listening to Stephen and learning about the history.
Great evening in Valletta!

5.00This was a wonderful, fun evening with Maria as our guide. She brought us to several Maltese spots that we would’ve completely missed out on without her! She shared Maltese culture, food and history and we loved her! We had a great group from the US, UK, Ireland, Germany and Egypt in our group. What a great way to get acclimated to the island. Highly recommend this tour!

A fun way to taste Maltese local foods and learn Malta history

5.00A fun way to taste Maltese local foods and learn about Malta history, architecture, and interesting facts. Our guide Charlotte was very knowledgeable, easy going, and patient with all the questions. She navigated the streets managing for our group to stay in a shade during a hot day. The only thing I did not like was the pasta dish that was dry, but it was a huge portion :) However, plenty of water was provided with it. Other 3 choices of foods were good. The food tour was enjoyable!
