The lady who was our tour guide was born and bred in Malta and obviously knew her stuff. She was very informative but we had to break off due to other commitments after an hour and 45 mins...but the time we did spend with her was excellent aided by an efficient sound ear piece system so we could hear her clearly and from a good distance away.

It was a highly interesting tour. And Nadine, as a local, was able to tell us so many little details.

This is a pretty thorough walking tour to where you learned the history of the area and also how to navigate if you want to go explore it on your own.
