The Traditional Harbour Cruise

Staff unfriendly and complicated, I would not recommend

It was difficult to locate the right boat. Early morning are very busy on the waterfront and signage is poor. The number of tours add to the confusion. Once on board the tour is excellent

Poorly organized, they ruined half our day. They left us to bake in the sun. We were supposed to visit Gozo and instead we stayed for two hours at the little train stop, without the little train. For those reading the reviews, only do Laguna blue, otherwise you will ruin your day.

We were not told the name of the boat We could not identify which to board. The people on the boat even turned us away until I showed a picture of the boat. On board was fine yet informative not very detailed. We will not go again.

It was really lovely cruising the harbour and seeing landmarks from the water Commentary was clear and informative

Excellent. The guide was very interesting and gave us a comprehensive explanation of the different buildings and of the history of Malta. The seas were a bit choppy, so prepare for the occasional shower of sea spray, which added to the experience!

Very disappointed with Malta Sightseeing / Supreme Travel Ltd. We purchased 3 tours including the Tour Hop-On Hop-Off tickets for €160 in Valletta. The service was extremely poor and did not match what was advertised. Buses were delayed, overcrowded, and unreliable, making it impossible to properly enjoy the tour or visit the stops as planned. Communication from staff was unhelpful and there was no proper customer support when problems occurred. For tourists visiting Malta, this experience was stressful and a waste of valuable holiday time and money. I would not recommend this company unless major improvements are made to the service, organization, and customer care.

Brilliant experience. Well worth a half day. In March you need to pack a wind proof jacket. Plenty to see a useful narration/description of the sites visited.

Nice tour, nice weather, informative guide, small intimate boat, plus with a toilet and that it was possible to shop for refreshments on board.

Sliema is the departure location for many Malta tours, both seagoing and land-based. On our first day we wanted to get an overview of the city, its layout and main points of interest. We usually do this with one of the ‘hop-on, hop-off’ buses in the city that we’re visiting. This time we decided that a harbour tour was more appropriate given the out-sized place that seafaring and maritime history play in the development of Malta, and of Valetta. We caught the local ferry from Valetta to Sliema (10 mins) to Sliema harbour. The boat was described by the captain as a traditional Maltese boat, few hundred years old, with obvious updates and refurbishments. The English commentary was interesting and informative. The crew friendly and helpful. The tour price is excellent, and it was one of the few boats leaving Sliema that morning that wasn’t crowded (Valetta and Sliema can be overcrowded at times). A small bar offered drink and snacks at reasonable prices. The 90 minute tour was value for money and an excellent introduction to the city and its history.
