Great walking tour with Douglas
Great tour, lots of knowledge from our guide John or Gwanni we learned alot about Valletta, the culture and the food was also very good, I regretted the big breakfast I had before. The cost was around 47 pounds but for 3 or so hours plus food, drink including a beer aswell asthe knowledge, it was well worth the money. Not rushed, I wore flip flop style shoes and these were fine for the tour. Some beautiful streets.
Fantastic and informative Tour Guide. It was very hot but the Tour guide made sure we had plenty of shade at all times. Food was great.
Great time with John who deftly led us though the wonderful history of the streets of Malta and its food.
Lovely morning in valetta with our guide John on the food tour… the food was lovely and John was very knowledgeable about the history of the food in Valetta and Malta. It was very enjoyable morning and would recommend!
Had a great time learning about the history of Valetta and about some of the local cuisine. John was fantastic, it was great to have a local who was very knowledgeable about the islands history showing us around. We really enjoyed his stories as well!
Yum! The Ftira was my favorite part. And I had my doubts reading the description, but it’s absolutely delicious! A couple of things weren’t for me, but overall a great tour with many options. You will leave feeling full.
This tour was a great combination of food & history. The tasting & sightseeing stops were spaced just right. Our guide Tony shared the love he has for his country in a friendly interesting way
Marisa our tour guide was excellent. We tried amazing food, saw lots of great views and learn so much history!
Our tour guide (Maryella?) was fantastic. She knew how to tell the story of Malta and also allow time for food on the tour.
