We had a fantastic full-day tour of Malta with Viktoria. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the island’s history, culture and landmarks, and we truly appreciated the insights and stories she shared throughout the day. Her kindness, humility and genuine passion for Malta made the experience even more enjoyable. She brought each place we visited to life and made the tour both informative and memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended!

Itinerary
Vittoriosa, Senglea and Cospicua, known as the Three Cities of Malta, are pieces of living history kept alive by hundreds of years of preservation, and the occasional miracle. The fortified cities sit like a trio of villages in the heart of Malta's historic centre, directly across the Grand Harbour from Valletta.
Marsaxlokk is especially known for the many luzzus in its harbour. In the background can be seen the parish church of Marsaxlokk dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary - The Madonna of Pompeii. Traditional luzzi and other larger and more modern vessels line the sheltered inner harbour.
Malta’s oldest prehistoric site of Għar Dalam engages visitors to take a journey to a time before human habitation, when animals such as elephants, hippopotami, and red deer roamed the pristine wilderness of the Ice Age.
Quite of a natural wonder, the splendid Blue Grotto is a network of six caves, boasting the most stunning views and clearest waters the Maltese Islands have to offer. Idyllically situated on the Southern coast, this is one of Malta's most popular natural attractions.
Ħaġar Qim is an ancient megalithic temple complex in Malta, dating from 3600–3200 BC, known for its impressive size, religious and astronomical alignments, and unique architecture using massive limestone blocks. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it features a main temple with interconnected chambers and a separate smaller structure, and is notable for a solstice alignment that highlights a central stone. Although its exact purpose isn't known, scholars suggest it was a sacred site for rituals and sun worship, as evidenced by findings like altars and fertility-related statuettes.
Located on Malta's western coast, at 253 metres above sea-level the Dingli Cliffs are the highest part of the Island. The cliffs became a popular attraction for tourists visiting Malta, heading there for a peaceful walk with boasting views of Filfa and the Mediterranean sea.
Situated in the southern part of Mdina, the charming city of Rabat (Malta) has a network of star-shaped streets and lovely buildings with traditional wooden ‘Gallarija’ balconies. The city, which is transformed from morning to evening when the tourists return to their destinations, has many attractions. It has catacombs, churches and Roman mosaics. It also has a well-deserved gastronomic reputation, with cafés and restaurants serving the best Maltese cuisine. A must when visiting Malta is to see the mosaics at the Domus Romana, a large villa dating back to the 1st century BC which, during the Arab period in the 11th century, was covered by a Muslim cemetery. Another must is to visit Saint Paul’s Catacombs, dating from the 3rd century BC, which were used for burials for 500 years. You should also visit Saint Agatha’s Catacombs.
Mdina is a fortified medieval town enclosed in bastions, located on a large hill in the centre of Malta. The town was the old capital of Malta, and with its narrow streets, few inhabitants and beatuful views over the Island it is truly a magical town.

We had a fantastic time exploring Malta. Gerald was knowledgeable, attentive and super flexible with our schedule. Great way to explore Malta with a local!
We had an amazing tour with Gerald!! He was so helpful and explained everything to us about navigating the ticket purchase for the temples and had a great recommendation for a snack spot near the Blue Grotto. Gerald was pleasant to talk with and gave us just the right amount of history and information about the area and the sights we were seeing. We booked a 4 hour tour and wished we would have booked the 8 hours. There was so much to see. I would highly recommend this private tour.
Our Driver Claire was very accommodating regarding our travel and what we wanted to see. Plans were changed to accommodate us. We couldn't have asked for a better driver. We had a fab day..
Great tour with easy pickup and drop off. The guide was very thorough and knowledgeable. Definitely a great way to learn about the history and see the country of Malta.
This was a personal tour with just the 2 of us and driver who kindly collected us from our hotel. We went all over Malta to places we chose, he would drop us off and give a rough time as to when to collect us again but was always flexible with the timings. We could have gone over to Gozo if we'd wished but had had WhatsApp contact with our driver and agreed we'd stick to Malta (we did a seperate tour of Gozo). This was all very helpful. We saw everything we wanted to see and our driver dropped us back at our hotel after 8 hours. The car was air conditioned and very comfortable. It's important to take your own information on the sights you are seeing, the driver is essentially just that, he is not a tour guide.
Gerald is great guide. Learned a lot about Valletta all in one day, a must do tour.
Great trip, got lots to see and not rushed. Gerald our driver was fantastic and very knowledgeable about Malta. Defo recommend this trip
Gerald did an excellent job. He took us to a number of places in Malta as indicated by the tour brochure.
Amazing tour with Andre who showed us all the must sees around Malta. Rabat, Modena, Valletta. Malta is truly a beautiful place to visit and the people are all lovely. Took 4 hour private tour. Thankyou for setting us up with Andre.
Gerald was amazing. He showed us all the areas and was sensitive to the best use of our time. We had an excellent experience!
Joseph was the best tour guide ever in Malta! Super knowledgeable and accommodating. We loved our tour!
Gerald was prompt. The itinerary was as advertised and I was able to see lot in 4 hours including a beautiful drive which Gerald chose over the faster route. The countryside is gorgeous. My disappointment with the excursion is that while Gerald is a very good driver he knows next to nothing about the sites he took me to. He couldn't answer the most basic questions. He told me he does this almost every day so I would assume other customers have made the same observation. I might have booked it anyway because I had very limited time. Perhaps I should have said I wanted a driver who had some degree of knowledge to share. I just assumed that was a given for a guided tour.
We were absolutely thrilled with this tour. It covers a significant portion of the main sights in Malta. Since we wanted to make the most of our short stay, this was an extremely efficient solution. We covered the remaining highlights (Gozo, Blue Lagoon, etc.) on a second day via a boat trip, which gave us the perfect combination in the end. A big thank you to our very nice driver! He was incredibly flexible and kept us well-informed throughout the drive. Thanks to his interesting facts about the island and his helpful tips on how to manage our time at each stop, the day ran completely smoothly. It was exactly the customized experience we had hoped for.
This private half-day tour was the absolute highlight of my three days in Malta! My guide was exceptional, professional, knowledgeable, and right on time. As we drove between sites, he answered every question I had about Malta’s fascinating history, culture, and landmarks, making every minute enjoyable and informative. When we were delayed waiting to see the caves, he graciously extended the tour so I wouldn’t miss out on anything, which I truly appreciated. His flexibility, patience, and genuine desire to make the experience memorable went above and beyond. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Malta. If you want a personalized experience with an outstanding guide, this is the tour to book!
We had a great tour with our guide Andre. Andre was friendly and informative and you can tell he has a strong family and cultural connection to Malta. Highlights of our trip included a visit to Fort St Angelo, Hagar Qim and of course Mdina.
Gerald was great, polite and an amazing driver. We felt safe and really enjoyed our time together. He made great recommendations for food and what to see. Thanks so much Gerald for a great day!
we cover most of gozo not much time for malta we manage to visit rabat only Mr gerald was helpful and brought us around gozo
Gerald was an exceptionally punctual driver. He reached out to me two days and one day before our meeting to confirm the location and time. He arrived on time, and we enjoyed a tour customized to my interests. I had the flexibility to spend as much or as little time as I wanted at each location, so there was no wasted time. Gerald also provided a wealth of information about each site and about Malta in general.
Was hectic at pickup as MSC EuropaWorlz gas docked and 6000 odd passengers getting off. Our driver Daryl kept in touch and met us. Tour was flexible so we did Three Cities, Marsaloxx, Blue grotto, Dingli Cliffs. Daryl aimed to be flexible to what we wanted to do as we had done Mdina the day before. Wanted to Sliema and St Julians but ran out of time. At Blue Grotto he suggested the boat ride- it was a good recommendation and highlight of the day. We did Dingli cliffs but as I had read elsewhere , you can skip this as Blue Grotto is better. Wish I had suggested just St Julians instead. Daryl was great - informative, friendly and focused on Is . A wonderful day with a great driver and guide who was friendly. Recommended
I had an excellent experience on the Malta Full-Day Private Tour with Gerald. He arrived right on time and the pickup and drop-off arrangements were very clear and easy to follow. Gerald took the time to understand my priorities and tailored the itinerary to match the places I most wanted to see. He also offered fantastic suggestions that helped me make the most of my time in Malta. Gerald is incredibly knowledgeable and shared a wealth of interesting information about Malta's history, culture, and landmarks, which made the experience even more enjoyable. His vehicle was clean and comfortable and his driving was excellent making for a very relaxed day of sightseeing. In just one day, I was able to see so much of Malta. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I highly recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a personalized and informative tour of the island. 😃
5 stars easily! We thoroughly enjoyed our private tour and would certainly recommend it to anyone who wants to see what Malta & Gozo has to offer efficiently. Our driver/guide, Joseph, was incredibly knowledgeable about the island, very friendly and took time to personalize our day with him. It ended up being one of our best days in Malta, hands down!
We had a wonderful time with Gerald. Genuine local with experience and knowledge. He will listen to your preferences and come up with the perfect course and schedule. If you don’t feel like doing the research and have someone plan and drive you door to door, he is the man.
Melvin was excellent! Full of information about the island and sites. We packed a lot into 4 hours. He both made suggestions and worked in what we wanted to see. Car was clean and cool. A great tour!
Andre did a great job of taking me round many of the key sites in Malta. Each location I was able to spend as much time as I wanted. At each location where possible he'd wait near by, or I'd message him as I finished if waiting was not permitted. Whilst not a "tour guide" he gave me interesting information as we drove around which added to the day.
Definately the way to go, Gerald was excellent. Picked out a selection of sights and made it soo easy, especially when you're unsure where to go . Very friendly, brand new immaculate vehicle too. In my opinion you'd be silly to risk using anyone else!! 10 stars!!!
Gerald made a full day across Malta feel effortless. We covered Mdina, Rabat, Marsaxlokk, the Blue Grotto, plus Ħaġar Qim Temples, Mnajdra Temples, Għar Dalam, and Borġ in-Nadur without any stress. We realized that Malta can be logistically tricky. Gerald made it simple, efficient, and relaxed. He’s the perfect mix of driver & guide, flexible, and great at pacing each stop. Safe driving, punctual, clear communication, clean car with strong AC, and helpful local tips. Perfect for anyone wanting to see Malta’s highlights without the hassle. 100% worth it. We’d book him again. Thank you, Gerald!
We had such an amazing day for pur Malta tour we book Gerald again for a Gozo tour. He gave us great information and made sure to take into consideration wjat we wanted to see/do. If I came back to Malta I would definitely use Gerald's service again. Can't recommend him enough!
Excellent tour: Old Valletta, Blue Grotto, Dingli Cliffs, St Paul’s Catacombs & Mdina. Joseph was friendly, personable and attentive. Upgraded for free to a van which was super comfortable for the three of us. Highly recommended!!
This is a great way to see things in Malta with a driver. Our driver was very nice, prompt and provided great information while we were driving. Unfortunately we were confused by the description of the tour - we thought we were getting a guide especially for Hagar Qim which would have really made a big difference (the museum audio wasn't as useful as we'd like - we ended up going to the internet for the history and timing of the site. )
We (group of 6) took a full day private tour to Mdina, and Gozo, Malta's sister island, a tranquil destination known for historic sites, as well as the most beautiful natural spot - Blue Grotto. We were so pleased to have Joseph, our professional driver and guide, who was so efficient, patient and helpful to take us around on a Saturday. We thoroughly enjoyed the ferry ride to and from Gozo; The Cittadella (Citadel) an ancient, fortified city situated in the heart of Victoria; Bażilika tal-Madonna Ta' Pinu. On our way back to Malta, we walked around Mdina, an ancient walled city. With limited time, Joseph managed to call the boat service at The Blue Grotto to book a ride for us before it closed at 5pm. We were so pleased to have joined this private tour and highly recommend it. Thank you to Joseph again for your exceptional service.
Gerald arrived at our hotel exactly on time ,his electric car was comfortable And quite, We started discussing exactly what was the plan for the day, Gerald would drop you off close to the attractions and. explained what to do and then with a quick call would meet you by the drop off point, as a Maltese man he new all the history and gave a great tour, Thank you
Excellent. Host was kind, experienced, and thoughtful in making sure i had a good trip to the highlights of Malta.
The positives for this trip were many. Our driver was easy to communicate with beforehand when coordinating pick up at our hotel, and to talk with during our time together. He arrived exactly on time. The car was spacious, clean and new. As we didn't have a specific plan, he made good suggestions that echoed some other recommendations we had received about things to see and places to visit. Our driver was also prepared ahead of time, and when one of our sites only took cash, he provided his own money up front to cover, and when the public toilet needed coins, he was right there to help. However, if you are hoping for, or expecting more of a "tour" experience, this may not be your best bet. This was an excellent assured ride around the island that provided peace of mind that we could get where we were going and be sure to have a ride present when we had finished. It was not a guided tour or a history lesson. If you are hoping to learn more about what you are seeing or where you are going, or have a guide when you arrive at a destination to enhance your visit, this may not be the choice for you.
We had an excellent experience tailored to our family and the perfect stops to see unique and beautiful spots on Malta. We travelled with our two kids and Gerald knew the perfect spots and kept us on an excellent schedule to make sure we could see and experience it all. We are so grateful for his knowledge and kindness toward our family and a fun day experiencing Malta!
Awesome day with Gerald taking us around to see the highlights of the island! If you want to see a lot and only have a little time, this is a great option. He’s friendly, Knowledgeable, and can help customize your day according to your preferences.
Great expérience with Gérald. Best guide in malta
Gerald was excellent and very friendly. He showed me all the highlights of Malta and made me very comfortable with the time.
Gerald was incredibly informative, helpful and flexible. Would highly recommend this private tour of Malta with Gerald!
We had the most wonderful tour with Gerald! He created the perfect itinerary, gave us so much knowledge of his country, and provided us with incredible recommendations! We were able to request stops we wanted to make, and cater the tour exactly to our wishes with his recommendations! Our tour with Gerald was truly the highlight of our trip, even on a rainy day. Malta has so many beautiful sights to see, I definitely recommend booking the 8 hour tour with Gerald!
This was a very enjoyable tour. Gerald was a great guide, was attentive to our desired schedule and had lots of great recommendations.
Awesome full day touring Malta. Excellent communication with Gerald. Andre his brother and driver was wonderful. Punctual and warm hospitality. He took us to every destination on our list avoiding traffic and lines. Gave informative tour. It was a perfect day.
Malta is an amazing country to go to. The sights are spectacular. The people are lovely. Everything about Malta is truly outstanding.
Gerald was helpful , knowledgeable and personable. He gave us options and we were able to fashion the tour to suit our interests. We saw archeological sites , the caves, museums and the fabulous architecture in Malta. Well worth the time and money.
Very enjoyable day. We did half day 4 hour tour of Malta.. Our driver Gerald was very helpful and professional, he contacted me ahead of time to arrange pickup. He had some suggestions for the day and adapted the plan to include some sights we especially wanted see at Hagar qim as we had a special interest in the megalithic site. Thank you for a very memorable day Gerald and best wishes to you.
Great, great, GREAT experience with Gerald! He took us to a lot of places, giving good advices about tickets, places to visit, places to eat well and not expensive, his car is very comfortable and AC was great after walking in the sun. Conversations with him are very nice and after one or two hours you feel like you're travelling with a friend. 😁 When we'll come back to Malta I will call him first to book a day tour! Also, there is too much too see in Malta so I recomand the 8 hours tour, 4 is not enough! Even 8 hours is too litlte, it should be split in 2-3-4 half days... Thank you, Gerald, you helped us have an amazing trip! 🤗
Wonderful Day tour experience!!!! I’m more than glad to book my tour with “Malta and Gozo Tours”. Special thanks to Joseph, for his professionalism, knowledge and efforts. He was really helpful throughout the journey, connecting and coordinating in every moment with all his efforts. Definitely recommend to book your next trip with Joseph: safe, friendly, helpful and kindest! Thanks Joseph once again for making my trip to Malta and Gozo so special, smooth and memorable!!!
We had such an amazing day with Gerald! He took us all around Malta and Gozo and made sure we did everything we wanted to do. He was super friendly, easy to talk to, and told us so many interesting things about the islands. Nothing was too much trouble for him — he really went above and beyond to make the day perfect. Honestly, couldn’t have asked for a better guide or driver. Thanks, Gerald, you were awesome! 🙌
It was so informative and fun and a great tour. We have been to Malta before, but this tour and our guide Joseph, gave us such a memorable tour experience to last a lifetime. The island is beautiful and so historic. Thank you again Joseph for the giving us the best tour ever.
Andre was friendly and an excellent driver. He had a great plan for our half day but was completely flexible and adaptive. We managed to cover a lot of different sites.
