We enjoyed the entire tour. Our guide, Philippe, was awesome. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area’s history, architecture and fun facts. Our driver, Marco, was spectacularly adept at avoiding traffic. Our favorite stop was Mdina. It was so rich in Malta’s history.

The tour requires that you change buses twice, with time lost with each bus change.

There was a large group of us tourists and Lisa handled everything perfectly and was extremely knowledgeable about the history and area we toured.

The locations were great but the tour itself felt disorganized and the guide was choppy.

The guide was excellent and very informative and the sights spectacular. The only aspect I didn't particularly like was the lunch but that is because I am a fussy eater!

This tour could have been much better if more time was allocated for the afternoon visits to Mosat and the craft villages. We spent well over an hour for lunch and the time could have been cut down here. We were not expecting a 3 course lunch in the middle of the day. It was also difficult to hear what the guide was saying as his voice was muffled due to the mask and he was softly spoken. The guide also appeared to lack enthusiasm and passion.
