Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"My friend Kylie and I had the wonderful Victoria show us around Valletta for a drinks and bites tour for 2.5hrs. We found Victoria to be professional, interesting and friendly in the delivery of her service. Not only were all our questions answered, we were given a great insight into the importance of the Maltese history. Victoria is a very personable guide who is proud of her country and happy to share with her clients. Thank you Victoria, we are happy to highly recommend you as a guide in Malta!"
"Our culinary tastes walk with Victoria started with meeting outside the main court building on Republic Street. We strolled and were told about the early history of Malta and some of the impressive buildings built by the Knights Templar and later occupiers of the islands, we then tried our first local speciality pastizzi a filo envelope filled with chicken or ricotta style cheese a three bite delicious snack from a little bake shop.in a side street we then moved on to a small bar/cafe called the Museum cafe,where we had a local sourdough sandwich (fcira) filled with tuna, salad beans,tomato and tomato paste,onion, capers and sliced onion. Delicious and very popular with locals and visitors We also tried a local bean curd paste and cheese with a pepper coating. All delicious and well worth seeking out.We walked on with loads more information on the work.of the Knights Templar building grand houses and churches, passed close to the Cathedral of St John and the to another little shop to taste a honey based treat popular with locals which we chose to have boxed for later in the day. Next back to Republic Street and the very posh Caffe Cordina a lovely cafe styled on the great Vienna coffee shops, must with posing citizens and their patisserie called cannoli o pastry tube filled with sweet cheese or a pistachio curd very yummy! Our final stroll.psst more impressive Templar built palaces used by the government to our last stop 'The Pub' in Archbishop Street famous for a very blow away visit by Oliver Reed when filming 'Gladiator ' which resulted in a fatal excess of liquid joy! A quirky place to end our excellent tour with a glass of the local beer."
"Victoria was a great guide, sharing history of the area and the food as we walked around Valletta. Of particular note was the library and the band rooms, little cafes and centres for the community to gather. We never would have found some of these places without a local guide. Totally worthwhile experience."
"We loved our tour. Victoria adapted immediately to our place, she was very knowledgeable and took us to some of the best restaurants of our trip. We returned to them later in the week for more great food. She also helped us orient ourselves to the different areas of Valetta. Thank you, Victoria!"
"We highly recommend Victoria and the tour. We had a great time trying various food, learning about the history of Maltese cooking and traditions. Victoria is personable, knowledgeable and professional. The tour is a wonder mix of culture, history and food."
"Bruna provided a great introduction to Valetta and its history, and we really enjoyed the snacks we tried during the tour. She did a great job making the tour interesting for my 10 year old daughter, and the whole family had a great time. Definitely recommend!"
"Our 2 back-to-back tours with Victoria were excellent (The Culinary Kickstart & The Three Cities Tours). We had a wonderful experience with Victoria despite the rain. She was our sunshine. Victoria was flexible and accommodating to our needs and expectations. Victoria is very very knowledgeable, personal, fun and passionate about Malta. We sure appreciated her humorous manner in sharing her personal comments on different topics during our tours. The city of Birgu is not to be missed and we tasted such lovely local food.! Victoria even gave us her WhatsApp so that we could message her for recommendations for our free time! Our stay in Malta was definitely enhanced by Victoria's 2 tours, complementing very well our organized motor coach tour. We will definitely seek her out if returning to Malta! Thank you Victoria!"
"Victoria was a fantastic guide! She was able to share so much knowledge about the city and explain how the food developed within the country. We were able to try so many different bites and treats. She was very personable and shared information about food traditions you don't see at local restaurants. I would highly recommend Victoria. She was a great guide and felt like a friend by the end of the tour."
"Victoria is very professional and friendly, telling us many stories along with interesting facts along the way. We tasted lovely local food and drink and all the communication when arranging was perfect. Victoria also gave us her WhatsApp and we could message her for recommendations afterwards too - all her recommendations were great and she helped us with an itinerary for the next day too. Thank you Victoria "
"We had an interesting time with Victoria yesterday. We had booked a walking food tour of Vallatta as we thought that would offer a different experience to just a walking tour. We were not disappointed! It was a marvellous morning discovering the food history of the capital. I would really recommend Victoria ( her knowledge was amazing!) and this tour. Don’t have breakfast. You are going to be nibbling all morning! Highly recommended. "
