Wonderful private day tour with Albert! He brought us to all of the highlights of Malta, explaining along the way. We went at our pace, never hurried. His time allocation at each point was spot on. Aside from his knowledge and information, he is a genuine. We would definitely book another tour with Albert.

Albert curated a tour of all the right places at just the right times for us. He was extremely informative, friendly, and respectful while being funny and entertaining. He gave us the tips and tricks for each site we visited and made the experience worth every nickel. Albert truly delivers VIP...he's definitely the mayor of Malta. This guy knows everyone! Don't think twice, just book him.

Great way to explore the island of Malta

Bev_B, Sep 2026

Great day exploring the island of Malta, from Neolithic temples to local crafts and everything in between. Albert was a great host, punctual, polite and showed us his home with passion

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for booking a private tour with us. We hope you had a lovely time, we enjoyed taking care of you and we value your custom. Please recommend us to your friends and family, we will be happy to look after

An absolute must on your holiday in Malta

Gary_G, Sep 2026

What an amazing day we had with Albert. He was so informative and interesting. He gave us lots of information about the sites we visited

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Great day trip

Jefferson_B, Sep 2026

Albert communicated through WhatsApp very thoroughly and arrived promptly at our location in Malta. It rained for a little bit and he had umbrellas on hand. We went with his recommended sites as we have never been here before. He is so proud of Malta and his heritage here and it showed in how he explained everything to us. You can tell he loves what he does and enjoys sharing his country with visitors. The vehicle is very comfortable and he constantly checks in to make sure temperature is okay etc. I would highly recommend him to anyone. 8 hrs seems like a long time, but for us it passed very quickly with his conversation and the stops themselves.

Great driver, clean car and nice tour!

Lisa_L, Sep 2026

Albert was fantastic! From reaching out the day before our tour, to showing up early day-of and then the tour itself….he was just lovely. Clean Mercedes, he opened our doors for us and was especially helpful to me being I was in a boot and with crutches. He allowed us to take as much time as we wanted and gave us a great recommendation for lunch in Mdina. Excellent driving & good aircon (it was hot out, so that was important!) Would highly recommend a tour with Albert!!

A must do in Malta

Maryna_A, Sep 2026

We had an excellent time! Albert was an amazing tour guide and very flexible. We many wonderful places in Malta that we would likely not see if we were exploring on our own. Albert gave us many useful tips and showed us truly unique places

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Albert is the best!

Kevin_L, Sep 2026

Albert is the best! So friendly and knowledgeable. We let him choose where to take us for our tour of Malta and it was the best decision. He let us wander as long or as little as we wanted, we never had to wait in line, and he was always there to great us when we were done. This is the way to see Malta if you can. If you have an itinerary of places you want to see just let him know and he will take you there or you can do what we did and let him show us his beautiful country.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Awesome day

Greg_S, Sep 2026

Our driver John was wonderful. He was so patient and kind. This adventure was slow paced and exactly what we needed. Unfortunately, we had to adjust the schedule a little because my husband was experiencing some dizziness. John was absolutely marvelous making sure he got in and out of the vehicle safely. I would definitely tell everyone to take this tour. The overview of the island is a good start for a week of adventure!

Wonderful Malta Day Tour

David_C, Aug 2026

Maltese history, architecture, and culture have made our experience on the islands a very memorable time. The full day tour took us to all the amazing places in the southern part of Malta. Our driver, Albert, was a native of Malta and was very knowledgeable about the island and provided us with a wonderful experience. We had a lovely lunch in the old city of Mdina which also provided an impressive panoramic view of central Malta. We would highly recommend this tour and feel it was a good value. Very much worth the experience.

Great Half Day Around Malta!

Kyle_M, Aug 2026

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the best tours we've ever had! Albert was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. He picked us up in his beautiful new Mercedes and immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable. What really stood out was how much he catered the tour to us. He took the time to find out what we were interested in seeing and built the day around that, while also adding a couple of surprise stops that weren't on our original list—but ended up being some of the places we were most glad we visited! Albert was incredibly friendly, kind, and thoughtful throughout the entire day. He was constantly making sure we were comfortable and having a good time, even opening doors for us and helping us get some great pictures along the way. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about making our day special rather than simply taking us from one attraction to the next. We saw so much of Malta, including the Blue Grotto, Mosta Dome, Hagar Qim, Mdina Glass, and the incredible city of Mdina, but honestly, Albert was what made the experience so memorable. We've taken quite a few tours over the years, and this was easily one of the best we've ever had. If you're visiting Malta and have the opportunity to tour with Albert, book him! You won't regret it. 🇲🇹❤️

Private tour in valetta

Peter_F, Aug 2026

Alberto was very professional and flexible in approach. He was able to take us places we would not have found ourselves and as he is well known in the main areas of interest he had good suggestions for what we should see and do. We received good directions before meeting Alberto and the day went very smoothly. Although not a guide Alberto was able to tell us a lot of information which made the day even more interesting. Certainly I would recommend Alberto for a good day which allows you to see a lot of places of interest in Malta.

Wonderful way to see Malta with a great, local guide.

Justin_C, Jul 2026

Albert turned an already beautiful day in Malta to the most amazing day possible. If you want a real local driver, whose passion for his home country is inescapable - as well as offering wonderful facts and notes as we drive around the country - then please look no further. We give Albert our highest possible recommendation. You will love your day out with him.

Malta private tour driver

Amber_R, Jul 2026

Albert was a very safe and reliable host. His car was nice and clean. This was my first trip to Malta, with my teen daughter. He picked us up from our hotel and he showed us much of the island. We were able to see the key sights including Medina, the neolithic ruins, the fishing village and the 3 cities. As a native Maltese, he was able to share much of this island’s proud history and culture. He will tailor the tour according to your wishes. I would recommend his services if you would like a private driver for all the sights in Malta.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Albert drove us all...

Juan_T, Jul 2026

Albert drove us all around his beautiful country, he provided water for us due to the heat. If you are ever in Malta and are looking for a great driver with extensive knowledge on the country, Albert is you guy.

Highly recommend, great guide and itinerary

Matthew_M, Jul 2026

Albert was a great guide. He knew the most efficient ways around and drove very responsible.he had great knowledge of the tour stops and also along the way. He had good recommendations for each stop. He allowed us to take our time at each stop but kept us on time. I would book other tours with him.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Malta guided tour by private car.

robert_l, Jul 2026

Albert is a very professional driver and tour guide. A family man doing his job with great enthusiasm. This man goes out his way for you to make the tour effortless and interesting. Very knowledgeable on all aspects of Malta when chauffeuring you around the island. He is also very flexible about where you want to go and can deviate from the original itinerary if you wish. All in all a great tour lasting 6 hours or more with time for meals and walks at places of your choice. Highly recommended. I have to add, the vehicle was a Mercedes with ice cold air conditioning, which you need when the temperature is 30* plus outside. Thanks again Albert.

Malta, fully explored!

Barry_k, Jun 2026

Albert was a wonderful tour guide. My wife and visited virtually all you could see on the Island with our tour. Albert knew some great hide-away-spots, great photo stops and being a native, really knew the Malta. His driving is very cautious on an island where driving is a bit unique. Always had cold water, never rushed and was so enjoyable. Cannot say enough how good our tour was!

Best way to see Malta in 1 day

Allison_K, Jun 2026

I booked the 6 hours private car, and we loved our driver Albert. We let him take us around to his recommended destinations, and we were treated pretty much like VIPs all day. He stopped multiple times for photo opportunities, and even picked off some cactus fruit for us on the side of the road. We got immediate front-row parking at all the stops, and he led us straight to the front of several attractions without having to stand in line. We got a lovely lunch recommendation in Medina, as well as some recommendations for later in our trip for beaches and authentic Maltese food. Wonderful way to spend my birthday and become immersed in the island.

Malta ~ In a Day

Rita_L, Jun 2026

This is a highly recommended and excellent day Activity in Malta. If you want to see a lot of Malta but have limited time, or just want some affordable sightseeing with a bit of comfort and luxury then this is definitely the way to go. Albert is extremely accommodating and also plans the day very well to ensure your expectations are met. He went over and beyond with our booking prior to and during the day of our Activity to understand where we wanted to visit and took note of our wishes. Polite, kind and respectful Albert is the ultimate professional, but is also friendly and understanding. Albert is well spoken in both Maltese and English and went out of his way numerous times for us to ensure we captured the heart of Malta and fulfilled our hopes for a very memorable day. We highly recommend Albert and this exceptional tour. This Activity takes you in comfort (air conditioned in the warm/hot weather and heating in the cooler temperatures) from your pickup address and returns you to the meeting point. A very comfortable and affordable way to see so much of Malta if you have limited days to explore. It frees you up to do other things during your stay as you can cover a lot of the attractions in one day. Complimentary water and Maltese sweets were a bonus, and a small gift at the end of the tour just added to the already excellent service. Thank you Albert for taking us to places we had hoped to visit! Your kindness is really appreciated.

Worth dollar and minute

Elaine_C, Jun 2026

★★★★★ I booked the 8-hour private tour with John and it was one of the best decisions of my trip. He arrived on time, was knowledgeable, and tailored the itinerary to help me see as much of Malta as possible in a single day. He even adjusted the route to avoid cruise ship crowds and managed to fit in extra stops from my wish list. John provided helpful tips at each location, kept me supplied with cold water, and made sure I knew where facilities were along the way. Thanks to his planning, I saw far more than I could have managed on my own. At €370, this isn't a cheap tour, but I felt it was excellent value for the amount I saw and the time it saved. What would have taken me 3–4 days to organize myself was comfortably covered in one day. Highly recommended for solo travellers or small groups who are short on time and want to make the most of their visit to Malta.

Exceptional Tour of Malta with Albert

Janice_G, Jun 2026

This tour was awesome! Our Tour Guide, Albert, was fantastic! He was gracious, knowledgeable, and provided interesting details about Malta. This tour was recommended by friends who took this tour with Albert in March 2026. We’re so glad we booked it with Albert! Great way to see Malta!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Great way to see Malta your way

Leslie_V, Jun 2026

This tour was in a luxury automobile with our private driver/guide Albert Polidano. He was charming and very accommodating to all our requests. That’s the beauty of this tour which you can tailor to your preferences. However, we do not recommend it for anyone with mobility issues as there are many stops, including about five churches, which require a lot of walking and many steps to climb. Ramps are not always available. That said, this is probably the best way to see Malta in a day and Albert made this a very pleasant experience.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Enjoyed it!

Sandra_C, Jun 2026

Having a private car and someone to drive us around was great! We just wished a bit more "guided" experience, a bit more history knowledge and to be told about each place a bit, but overall was great!

Great private half-day tour of Malta

Ellen_T, Jun 2026

Albert was an excellent guide for our half-day tour of Malta. He was a good driver. He had good ideas about the best places to take us, but was also flexible about our own wishes. He even provided iced water bottles. This was the best way to see the most of Malta in a short period of time.
