Great walking tour with Nadine - We booked this tour not knowing much about Malta, and after our tour with Nadine, we left wanting more and wanting to come back to visit. Nadine was passionate, thorough, and gave insight on the amazing city that is Valletta. Highly recommend the tour and hopefully you get Nadine!

Angele did an excellent... - Angele did an excellent tour, not just the standard stops, but the little out of the way places that tell something about the history of Malta. We saw a lot and got a good feel for the culture from her. Excellent guide

Great tour - Great host who made it interesting and knowledgeable. I would only suggest a little longer at the gardens because by the time you go to the toilet there is not that much time to look around

Enjoyable walking tour! - Marina was a lovely tour guide with a rich knowledge of the city and its history. I’d take this walk again and my friends enjoyed it very much too. However, same complaint as in Lisbon and Porto - these tours gloss over the slave trade and its impact on the local economy + wealth + architecture.

Walking Tournof Valletta - Fantastic - Excellent tour with a fantastically knowledgeable guide - Petra. We found out a lot about the history of Valletta and also about life in Valletta / Malta today.Easily accessible for anybody, but be prepared for a few cobble / uneven streets and steps. But that is Valletta! Beautiful city with so much to see and do. Would highly recommend.
