Malta Exclusiva: Tour Privado de Historia y Sabor Inolvidable

Catherine was a brilliant guide and told us lots of interesting facts about Mdina. We loved seeing the city at night and the food we had was all delicious and tasty. Would highly recommend this tour 🫶🏻

What a great introduction to Malta. Lorraine was our guide and was welcoming, attentive, and overall excellent. We felt very taken care of. Walking in the evening is magnificent, with everything lit up. Food was great. Highly recommend to anyone, and even if you went to Mdina in daytime, do it at night also.

I had very high hopes based on the reviews for this private tour, but ended up very disappointed overall. First off, we were picked up in Valletta for an extra fee, which was fine, but our driver to Mdina knew nothing of our tour or who we were meeting or where. He dropped us off a Mdina and drove away, leaving us with no way to contact our guide. Fortunately, we found her a few minutes later. She was very, very nice and quite knowledgeable. As a native Maltese, the best part of the tour was talking to her about Malta culture, history, language, and life in Malta. She gets 5 stars. But the food was the issue. As a history and food tour, I assumed that this tour would be geared more for foodies, looking to explore authentic food. And, yes, while we did that - to a degree - it wasn't of the quality we had hoped, and certainly not for €400. The first place was a cute street pastizzi place, where we had 2 pastizzi and a soda. Maybe €15 tops. That was fine. Then we walked through Mdina, which was informative, and stopped at a packed restaurant to have cake. Cake?? What about dinner? The cake was merely OK, and we didn't actually want it, but we didn't have a choice. €8.40. We passed a number of restaurants in converted homes that looked quite nice and delicious, but no, we walked all the way to Rabat and our guide took us to a sports bar. Fluorescent lights. Cheap tables, no ambiance. We were literally the only people in the place. Sadly, there was a very nice looking restaurant directly downstairs, but that's not where we ate. They served us a typical Maltese salad (olives, sundried tomatoes, sausage, beans, pea paste, pan con tomate) and a glass of wine. €25, maybe. Almost everything was insanely salty. Then our guide left, saying that our driver would pick us up across the street. We were a bit shocked. We ate our food in the empty restaurant, and then our driver called saying he was at the Mdina gate and where were we?? He was nice enough to come get us and he actually ended up being the highlight of the tour, as he gave us wonderful suggestions for food and wine in Valletta and beyond. Thanks for that! So we paid nearly €400 for €50 worth of OK food and a nice walking tour of Mdina. Nope, not worth it. Sorry, I wish I could say otherwise.

The food tour was wonderful and our guide was fantastic. Perfect blend of Malta history and food tasting. Truly enjoyed.

The tour guide was excellent but some of the local foods were not available. My main reason for the the poor score was the administration of the service which was a disaster. It is unfortunate because it could have been much more enjoyable experience. Basically, Viator messed up the pickup location and I wasted time on the phone to salvage the situation. In the end the tour started an hour later and fortunately we had no other time commitments. If one had to make a boat departure it is possible the delay would have devastated the rest of your trip. What made matters worse Viator made me pay for a taxi to fix their error, whereas it clearly stated in my confirmation that all transfer expenditures were included. I strongly discourage anyone to consider using Viator and strongly recommend to avoid them.

Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. He was personable and made our experience very enjoyable.

This tour was great. We heard a lot of history, architecture und kultur of the island. The tipical food, snacks and drinks were splendend. Our guide was very frindly and we saw a lot of interesting things. I can recomand trips with my dream Malta to every body. They did a very good job.Even our speciat wished had been done by the company! Many thanks for that!!!!!

Chris was absolutely amazing. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and just a pleasure to be around. The local cuisine was delightful and well prepared. We did the evening tour. The lights highlighted the architecture in a way that was breathtaking.

Daniela was thoroughly enjoyable! She made a rainy dreary day so much fun. She took us to some amazing venues and shared delicious Malta cuisine in this progressive lunch. There were some nice surprises. Come hungry! During the walk between restaurants she shared a lot of Malta history. She was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions. I highly recommend!

First off, I apologize but cannot remember the name of our guide. She was, however, absolutely fantastic. The amount of knowledge and the nuances of the Maltese history was impeccable. She was quite witty and charming. The snacks along the way were delicious. Although, we have to give the chocolate tasting the gold star on the snack category. The tour was a bit over three hours but that was because we were so engrossed in our talk at lunch that the time slipped by us! I highly recommend skipping breakfast for this tour because you will be getting heaps of snacks and food on this tour, all of which were excellent. Highly recommend them!
