5.00A brilliant start to our holiday in Malta! Christopher was a very professional knowledgeable guide and tailored our day to our interests wonderfully. We visited the Rotunda of Mosta, St Paul's Grotto in Rabat, the incredible Domvs Romana, Mdina, Had Dingli, Zurrieq and Marsaxlokk. Christopher gave us brilliant insights into Maltese culture and history throughout our day and two great recommendations for lunch. We had a lovely leisurely lunch at Coogi's in Mdina. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel and didnt have to worry about a thing! We learnt so much on our trip and Christopher also gave us some great suggestions for places to visit in Valletta. I would highly recommend booking a day trip to get your bearings and an understanding of the amazing island of Malta!
magnificent malta

5.00The tour we took was an all day trip to Gozo Island. It was well worth it. Mark showed up on time and we then drove to the Gozo ferry and went across. We visited all the main sites of Gozo and then a few extras (even time for a quick stop at Skorba on Malta Island on the way home). Mark never rushed us and yet we had plenty of time. We did not do a formal lunch, but Mark got us some Pastizzis, a local food. Mark knew a lot and filled the driving time with stories. He did not enter the sites with us, but that was the standard procedure. A very memorable day. Advise that you purchase a Gozo Pass from Heritage Malta so that you don't have to queue up at each attraction.
Amazing

5.00We had a great day with Mark. We really enjoyed this day trip with our private driver. Mark was an attentive, very friendly tour guide and took us safely to the most important destinations in Malta. Start in Valletta, then on to the cliffs, boat trip to the Blue Grotto, prehistoric temples, Mdina, Rabat, Mosta..... He told us a lot about the country and the people, had water for us, checked our entrance tickets, audio equipment, etc. He was really very considerate. The island tour was so varied and entertaining that the 6 hours were almost too short. Thank you Mark, we really enjoyed it and now know Malta a little better!!! Thank you for the pastizzi that we got as a farewell! A really great day!
Well worth it!

5.00We had a great time. Mark was sensational. He was very attuned to our needs and desires and tailored the trip specifically for us. My husband is a stroke survivor and has mobility issues. Mark went above and beyond to ensure we both had an enjoyable time.
The best way to make the most of your day

5.00My wife and I booked this tour and could not be more pleased. We were picked up in a Mercedes, offered a bottle of water, and away we went! This company is committed to customizing your experience and takes the hard part out of navigating and time management. They have great relationships with local vendors and strive to give you the best experience possible. We saw beautiful Mdina, complete with the best recommendations for lunch. St. Paul’s Grotto was special to us as Christians. The tour guide, Christopher, had special access to a site with amazing prehistoric cart ruts. The Dingli cliffs took our breath away. We found the best souvenirs in the craft village. Mosta Dome was astounding. It was a wonderful worry free day!
