Amazing place and tour was the best we can imagine! Our group was 12 people aged 12 to 87 and there was something for everyone. Important sites, great photos, delicious Malta snacks- and incredible views. We loved our day in Malta- our tour guide, Edmund Garage, made it excellent!!

This was a wonderful day! Edmund is truly passionate about sharing his knowledge about all things Malta. We heard interesting historical facts, found wonderful places for my family to take pictures, and had a good number of laughs all day long. If you’re looking for someone with passion for their craft, I would highly recommend booking. Thank you Edmond!

    It was a great overview...

    Paula_H, Sep 2026
    It was a great overview of Malta. We were able to set amount of time at different locations and choose sites of most interest to us. Trip also allowed us to modify amount of time at a site based on our interest and weather as very hot for our trip

    Beautiful, Historic Malta

    Carol_J, Sep 2026
    The van was clean and comfortable and Edmund was a superb tour guide. As a native Maltese, he proudly showed us and explained all the highlights of the island. It was a wonderful day of sightseeing under his enthusiastic guidance.

    A day in Malta.

    The meetup was seam less. Joseph was very knowledgeable about his island and listen to our ever request. Dropped us off and we called him when we wanted to move on. .

    Great personal tour. Paul was great. And Anne knew his information took us to all the great spots. I would highly recommend.

    The Best of Malta

    Scott_B, Sep 2026
    This tour provided our group the flexibility to see the highlights of Malta that were our top priority. Our driver and guide, Sylvia, was very knowledgeable. While driving us between stops, Sylvia provided us with both current and historical information. Our time on the tour with Sylvia was a highlight of our cruise in the Mediterranean.

    Sylvia was very...

    Stacy_S, Sep 2026
    Sylvia was very entertaining, passionate and flexible! We had a great time and intro to Malta on this tour.

    Fantastic day being shown the highlights of Malta

    Carmen_r, Sep 2026
    A fantastic day being shown around Malta by Raymond. We never would have known what to see or where to go on our own. Raymond was really knowledgeable and interesting.

    Exceptional service

    Daniel_C, Sep 2026
    Nothing was too much trouble for Raymond our driver. Excellent way to get a flavour of Malta for further exploration.

    We were dropped off in...

    Mike_E, Sep 2026
    We were dropped off in various places (that we selected) and spent various amounts of time at each location. We texted when we were done and the van appeared within 2 minutes every time. Driver was friendly and knowledgable.

    A/C barely worked

    Amar_S, Aug 2026
    Our guide was friendly and kind, but hard to hear and provided limited information. Our main issue was that we booked an A/C van, but it barely worked. Malta is in a heatwave and we were hoping the van would be our refuge and be able to recharge, but instead we were hot the entire time so it ruined the experience.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Dear Mr Shah, I would like to thank you for your Review and apologize for the inconvenience caused. I am sorry about the Airconditioning in the van. However, as you stated Malta was suffering from a tremendous heatwave. The van provided was one of our newer vans and with a good airconiditoning sysem, however, during peak hours with humidity it can happen that the airconiditioning cannot keep up. These have been reacord breaking hot weeks in Malta!

    Think twice what you want-trust your gut

    Tad_C, Aug 2026
    We loved going to all the villages throughout Malta and learning about the history. Paul was a great source of information. Overall, it was a great experience. The only negative part was we told him we wanted to eat at a local mom and pop restaurant and have beef. He took us to his local family/friend restaurant which was mostly seafood. This was the worst service we had throughout our 4 week stay in Europe! The waitress seemed like we were a bother and never checked on us. The food was just ok. Disappointed.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Thank you for your Review! It's great that you had a wonderful time with Paul! I would like to sincerely apologize for the above situation. I am sure it was a misunderstanding from Paul's side as I am sure that he wished to take you to the best possible restaurant!

    Not impressed

    Susan_H, Aug 2026
    The Driver Guide, John was very pleasant on time and courteous. But his delivery of information was quite memorized and non-conversation.al. Which made the presentation quite boring.He was also quite difficult to understand with his accent, therefore leaving us with gaps in the information.. the car was quite comfortable.

    John knows his stuff

    jennifer_l, Aug 2026
    Had some info lost in translation from initial contact to execution, plus some more on the day of the actual tour, not John's fault. John's knowledge is encyclopedia and speaks extensively on all topics, I could barely keep up. I loved the rotunda very much and John provided us a delightful local snack thereafter. I didn't know I should see St Paul's grotto due to my own lack of research. My friend asked to go back to see the catacombs after we were well past them, which I would give a miss to, in hindsight. The grotto was then closed due to the hour, despite John's best efforts to ameliorate. John took us to a nice scenic overlook and the best part was the little market stood up there, very good experience. We went by the ancient ruins of Hagar Qim, supposedly older than the pyramids? Unfortunately I was not impressed. Really liked Mdina and the three walled cities which John managed to squeeze in despite the requested doubling back. He was able to pick us up at a different location as well as drop us off at my lodgings near the airport which I really appreciated!

    Flexible travel plan

    Mingtzu_W, Jul 2026
    It is quite flexible that the driver could come to the cruise exit to pick us up and store our luggage in our hotel before we start our journey. We discussed our itenary with our driver and visited almost every place we're interested.

    ruth_h, Jul 2026
    Trip was fantastic and fully customized to us! Our driver/guide Paul was wonderful and very knowledgeable about all things Malta! Our only regret was we didn’t have enough time to do everything …which means we have to come back!

    Five-Star Malta Experience from Start to Finish

    Tania_M, Jul 2026
    We had such an amazing day exploring Malta, and a huge part of that was thanks to our driver, Alessandro. From the very beginning, his excellent communication before the tour ensured everything was well organised and tailored to our needs. From the moment he picked us up, he was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely at ease. He really catered the day to what we wanted, gave us plenty of time to explore without ever feeling rushed, and shared so much interesting local knowledge along the way. It felt like we were being shown around by someone who genuinely loves Malta and wanted us to have the best experience possible. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Alessandro went above and beyond to make the day special, and we can’t recommend him or the tour company highly enough.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Thank you for your Review! We are thrilled that you enjoyed your day with Alessandro!

    Excellent 1-day private tour

    Natalie_S, Jul 2026
    Our friendly and knowledgeable guide Joseph led us on a great tour of some of the top sights of Malta. We were able to accomplish a lot in just a 1-day tour, including the Three Cities, Mdina, the Blue Grotto, and Haqar Qim. Would certainly recommend!

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Thank you for your Review! It is great that you enjoyed your day with Joseph!

    Private, tailored experience

    Kristina_M, Jul 2026
    This was a private tour in a private luxury car with a very knowledgeable driver who took us where we had previously requested and made suggestions for things to see and where to eat. It was a very relaxed enjoyable day

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Thank you for your Great Review! :)

    Left us stranded

    Susana_V, Jun 2026
    Despite booking our tour several months in advance, the operator completely overlooked our reservation and left us stranded with no tour. Since we were only in Malta for three nights, there was no opportunity to reschedule, and a big part of our trip was ruined. This level of disorganization and lack of professionalism is simply unacceptable.

    Response from Host, Jun 2026

    We would like to sincelerely apologize for this mistake from our end as discussed over the phone yesterday. It was never intended and we are truly sorry for this mistake. As discussed a refund in full has been issued back.

    Malta is unique !

    OCTAVIO_V, Jun 2026

    Edman was not only an amazing driver and guide but a fantastic photographer. He gave amazing recommendations for places to visit and see and also food to try. I would 1000000/10 recommend him if I ever come back I will definitely try and get him as a guide again!

    The Perfect Malta Experience with Raymond

    Karen_W, Jun 2026
    Raymond was an exceptional guide! He did a wonderful job showing us around the island, sharing Malta's rich history in a way that was both knowledgeable and engaging. He had a great eye for curating the day — finding a lovely short hike, a fantastic lunch spot, and making sure all the practical details (like bathroom stops) were taken care of along the way. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Than you for your Review! It's great that you enjoyed your day with Raymond!
