Golden streets of malta

5.00Did it solo and our guide was just exceptional, this quietly proud Maltese man who spoke about his island with such warmth and depth that you felt genuinely privileged to be getting the inside track. It did get quite warm by midday and a couple of the outdoor sectional had very little shade so pack accordingly.

5.00My partner and I joined this during our trip, and it was one of the more relaxing parts of our stay. It wasn’t overly structured, which we liked, and we had time to take things in at our own pace. Felt very natural.

5.00The entire area is simply amazing; we spent the morning in Valleta and the afternoon in Mdina has serene, romantic atmosphere that is ideal for a leisurely stroll. I'll totally recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for comfortable day.
Visit of both cities

4.00Covers both cities well, but no time allocated to visit Vathrdrsl of Mdina or the Co-Cathedral of St. John. This was a big miss for me.

5.00An unforgettable day in Malta! We discovered two very different but equally beautiful cities. Mdina felt timeless and mysterious, while Valletta was cheerful and full of charm. The tour was well-paced and super enjoyable.

5.00I joined this Malta tour, not knowing what to expect, but it turned out to be such a rich experience. Mdina’s narrow streets felt like a peaceful labyrinth, and Valletta impressed me with its grand buildings and sea views. The mix of old and new made it special.
