Top Malta Outdoor Activities - page 6

I’m a female solo traveler (in uni) and this was such a good way to see Malta at the start of my stay and get my bearings. I met some really nice people who gave me recs and bus info on the cruise as well! Overall, seeing it from the river and being told what each thing is really let me see the city before I walked it!

It was such an awesome experience. Best way to see most, if not all, of Gozo in one day. The quad tour covers all the major locations on the island. There are lots of stops to take pictures and to walk around. There's also a stop at a restaurant where you can enjoy traditional Maltese food. Our tour guide was amazing and ensured that our entire group had a fun experience.

Thank you for an exceptional time. Without a doubt, this was a fantastic experience, and I would highly recommend. The concept of the guided tour through a GPS and a recorded 'tour guide' is brilliant. It gives you all of the highlights and allows for taking a tour at your own pace. Customer service was second to none and Kris, the purveyor went WAY out of his way to take care of us. I hope he brings the process to other cities and hopefully to the US. I'd go again. The only caveat is this: if you are not experienced driving on the left side of the road, take your time.

We met Mary outside the Parliament building, where she provided everyone with earpieces and amplifiers — a great touch that made it easy to hear her throughout the walk. The tour began with a fascinating overview of Malta’s history, and Mary shared plenty of fine details and stories that brought Valletta to life. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and could answer just about any question about the city. Our route started in front of Parliament, continued to Hastings Gardens, then through the back of the main street. We were meant to visit the St John’s Headquarters, but it was closed due to an electricity issue. From there, we explored the old theatre (formerly the opera house), the Bursa, the Barrakka Gardens, Muza, and finally Republic Square and the Grand Master’s Palace Square. Overall, it was a very enjoyable and informative tour — highly recommended!

We had a wonderful time on board. The captain and crew were so attentive, friendly and helpful. There were not too many spaces available on the excursion so it didn't feel crowded at all. We made use of the paddleboards and snorkel equipment provided when we stopped in both the Blue and Crystal Lagoons. So relaxing and peaceful.

What a great experience to explore the coastline of Gozo and Comino. No need to see The Blue Lagoon, overcrowded and overrated. Beautiful waters and our tour guide was great! He was funny and gave alot of information about the area. Going in and out of the caves and grottos were fun. A must do activity!

With limited time, our family was able to see a wonderful overview of Malta. Traveling through the entire island showed us the very different styles of architecture and landscape. The guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. Many people that only utilized the hop on, hop off bus didn't get a real flavor for this wonderful place. I especially loved the blue grotto.

This tour was exactly what I was looking for! Reading the descriptions of other boat tours and swimming cruises, I knew I did not want a giant 200 person party boat. The size of this boat is just perfect for number of people, as well as weight and holding its own on the water. I get extremely motion sick, and while I did prepare ahead of time with meds, the waters were calm, and I was able to enjoy the views and the cruise. The drinks on board are super reasonably priced, both for alcoholic and nonalcoholic. We were shown some cave highlight features first, then stopped at blue Lagoon for an hour to either explore the shore, or swim off the boat. I swam for the hour and it was spectacular. You can jump off the main level or the second level of the boat, some guys were doing flips or dives! Then we gathered everyone and went to the Crystal Lagoon. This was INCREDIBLE to swim in. Quieter, no huge boats, crystal clear waters, caves to explore. On the short ride over we were treated to some watermelon, perfect after a swim in the sun. Blue Lagoon was beautiful, but very populated, so I almost wish we had more time to swim in the crystal lagoon, as we were there for just 45 mins. All in all, incredible experience. If you want swimming, and not a huge crowd of people, this is for you!!!
