Thank you Chris! - The tour with Chris did not disappoint my expectations. After taking the walking tour of Valletta, I was so satisfied that I decided to join him again for the Rabat and Mdina tour. Chris is a very knowledgeable and professional guide who knows how to capture your attention and curiosity with the stories and anecdotes he shares. Two and a half hours fly by with him, and by the end you feel truly enriched. Thank you, Chris — until next time!”

How to turnaround a miserable rainy day to a joyful experience! - Christian is very knowledgeable and made a rainy afternoon in Mdina and Rabat so more enjoyable. We learnt a lot about these two cities, not only the history but some general knowledge about church etc.

Great tour of a fascinating city - This was a fantastic walking tour, even on a rainy and windy day. I learned a lot about Mdina and Rabat, and I enjoyed Chris’ stories of growing up in the area. Chris is a great storyteller and kept the tour entertaining, while also sharing a lot about the history of the area. I highly recommend it.

History and Cultural tou with glimpses of game of trones - Even if the weather was against us, the tour led by Chris was great and really interesting. the explanations were plenty and the personal stories made this tour a success. This tour of the two cities with historic references is a good way to understand the complicated history of Malta. If you have an afternoon, go for it, it is worth the visit.

Great tour of Mdina & Rabat - Chris was an excellent guide who really brought the area and its history to life. Despite torrential rain at times, he kept the group engaged and gave us a locals insight into the city. Good value for money and would highly recommend.

Loved Mdina - We absolutely loved the part of the tour that focused on Mdina. The guide Chris did a great job explaining the history of the area, the nuisances of the Maltese nobility over time, and pointing out architectural features of administrative buildings and private residences. The sounds of the city (still lived in) were wonderful. Where the tour fell short for us was the Rabat section (last 1/3 of the tour). While we greatly appreciated the guide’s personal connections (lives in Rabat, we went to the church he attends), it became a bit centered around his own experience. Also, while we were very impressed with his overall knowledge, when we asked a couple of questions, he wasn’t particularly forthcoming with us. Touring Malta again, we would focus on Mdina only.
