It was a great experience, highly recommend to visit Popaye's Village. It was not overcrowded because it is February and it's not high season, but the weather was perfect.

3 hours well spent
Visited in winter but I think in summer it would be better as there are more options to spend your time. It would be easily worth a day.

Local guide made this a highlight stop
On a 10 day cruise a this tour was the highlight of the trip. Our driver Carmel was hands down the best!!! He was from Malta and knew all the history. He took the time to make fantastic stops and really show us what Malta has to offer. I feel like we were able to see all of Malta in 6 hours. Highly recommend using Carmel.
