Great first visit for a Valletta trip - We chose Lizzie over bigger boats and it was the best decision. We start our trip to Malta with this tour and I highly recommend it to get an idea of the layout. Great explanations and lovely time spent on the boat.

Above and beyond competition - That was super exciting and Luzzu Cruises do far more coverage than any of their competition. 1.1/2 hours. Beautiful trip. Joe was great and finish early by John Paul was excellent. Great value for money too.

Great experience. - The harbours of Malta, especially the Grand harbour, are just stupendous. A really good tour that passes all the creeks. I would recommend everyone to take a camera along!

Fantastic way to see Valetta and surroundings - Excellent trip - can highly recommend. Great views of Valetta and neighbouring areas. Can really see how it worked as a fort from this view. I chose the sunset option so could see during daylight but also lit up at night

Great boat trip - This boat tour gives you another view of Valletta and the cities next to it. We were taken care of on time, the crew was nice. Despite the bad weather (wind and rain), we were still able to admire the architecture and boats in the port. Nevertheless, we thought we were going to have a smaller boat, a rather typical style as in the first picture of the ad.

Harbour cruise around Valletta, Malta - Used Supreme tours, cost was 20 euros pp, 1.5 hours along 3 harbours. Picked 1.30pm for our particular cruise. It was OK, nothing supreme or spectacular... but a good ride around shoreline. Started at Valleta, ferry from sliema. We stayed behind in Sliema to look around afters and made our own way back on ferry.

Malta is so gorgeous from the water - historic insights make it even better - Boat was smaller and less comfortable than expected. Given was a very chilly day that was a little bit of a distraction- trying to keep warm. Malta doesn’t disappoint from the water! Small boat plus was we were able to go inside a small harbor with spectacular views of surrounding old cities and boats. Gorgeous. The English was a bit difficult to understand but overall could follow historical points talked about. Nice crew.
