Best communication and tour

Awesome tour. Great communication prior to and pictures after the tour from Mark at their office. Louis was an incredible guide and made me feel like a real insider by sharing his vast knowledge of the country and insight into his people. He was able to answer all my questions and provided many links after the tour offering me more to read and explore. I would highly recommend Marlen.

Malta experience

Our tour guide, Louis, was more than excellent. His grasp of the history of the island as well as his personality made for a terrific tour. His English was excellent which helped two folks from the states understand the information he shared. I would highly recommend Marlon Tours through Victor when in Malta!!

Wonderful Malta Tour!

This was exactly my kind of excursion! We were on a cruise, and as most cruisers know, ship excursions tend to leave very early in the morning. Unfortunately, my son had an injury and needed to see the ship’s doctor that morning, so we had to cancel our original excursion. I still wanted to explore Malta later in the day and was so glad to find this wonderful tour that offered an afternoon option. There were six of us total—four others from our cruise and us—so it felt like a private small-group tour. We traveled in a comfortable Mercedes van with excellent air conditioning (a huge relief since it was a very hot day). The van even had a video system that provided helpful background information about Malta and the sites we were visiting, which really enhanced the drive between stops. Our driver was professional and drove very smoothly, making the ride pleasant and safe. Upon boarding, we were given an agenda outlining the stops and time at each location, which I appreciated. The entire tour lasted about four hours, and the pacing felt perfect. The first stop offered breathtaking views, and then we headed to the Blue Lagoon. This was the highlight for me! I would have completely missed this experience if we had stuck with the ship’s excursion. For €10 per person, we took a 30-minute boat ride through the caves and around the Blue Lagoon—it was absolutely gorgeous and worth every euro. We visited several other sites before ending at the walled city, where we had free time to wander and explore on our own. Malta itself was stunning, and I’m so thankful we found this tour. It didn’t have a lot of reviews at the time, but I can confidently say it was one of the best tours of our entire cruise. If you’re looking for a later start time or want a small group experience with knowledgeable commentary and excellent service, this is the perfect choice. We felt completely safe and well cared for the entire time. Highly recommended!

Great Overview of Malta

While we imagine there’s more to Malta than the few places on the itinerary, we feel like we got a good overview for the time that we had. Our guide arrived on time, and we never felt rushed. He provided us with much information about the sights along the way and also the country and its fascinating history and culture. As an added bonus, he also used WhatsApp to send us some beautiful and dramatic photographs that were taken with a drone.

Great way to see the best of Valletta

Great tour of Malta. We took a boat to see the blue grotto and then to the silent city Mdina. This was a perfect amount of time and saw the highlights. At the end Charlie gave us the option to shop in the main area, not to far from the ship or take us back to the ship. THank you Charlie for the great tour !!
