5.00This was a very comprehensive tour covering Mdina and Valleta. Tommaso answered all questions clearly. He showed professionalism, and it was organized and gave a summary of places visited. I would recommend this tour. Bravo Tommaso!

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.
An unforgettable day

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.

1.00I did this tour with my husband and two teenagers (17 and 19). It was probably the worst tour we have ever done and we have done many. Our first stop was Mdina. The entire city was swarming with bees. The tour guide disregarded the fact that all of us (the 4 of us and the other 4 guests) were moving all around trying to get away from the bees. In addition, she had such a strong accent that her English was unrecognizable. We had no idea what she was saying the entire time. It seemed like the tour guide was more fixated on her commentary than our comfort…she was annoyed that she did not have our full attention but we were concerned about all of the bees! After an hour we finally left Mdina and headed to Valletta. Fortunately there were no bees but we still had no idea what she was saying. The only thing all of us were able to decipher was when the tour guide told us the numbers on the road were parking spaces. So glad we paid hundreds of dollars for that. Definitely do not recommend.
