Great experience - Super experience! My friends and I were in a group of a total of 6. Glad we weren't so many people. A friendly and humorous local guide took us around and told about Mdina, Rabat, 2. World War shelters and catacombs. 5/5:)

Wonderful tour from a genuine local. - What a wonderful tour guide Chris is. He is a local from Rabat and you can tell how much he loves his home town. It was a pleasure being shown round by him and you can tell by his interactions with nearly every local we met how well liked a guy he is. The group was a maximum of 12 so a really personalised tour. Chris was full of interesting and fascinating facts and also had some funny stories. The catacombs were a real delight to see and not every tour visits these. So glad I chose this tour and cannot recommend it enough.

An amazing tour of Mdina and Rabat. - This was a truly memorable tour of Rabat and Mdina which included the world war two shelters, catacombs and St Paul's cave. The architecture and ambience of the area is amazing but Christopher our guide brought the whole place alive with his tour. He is obviously a local with a real passion for his home and it's incredible history and was riveting from start to finish. One of the best walking tours we have ever been on.

Historical sightseeing - The tour was really amazing. The guide was both entertaining and knowledgeable. The Catacombs were an intriguing addition to the tour and a pleasure to visit. Also, the small size of the group was a nice aspect of the tour.

Chris is AMAZING!! Do this tour - Chris's knowledge is incredible. It was a walk through history with friendly meetings of locals as we walked through the ancient cities of Rabat and Mdina. His connection to the history was very obvious and his way of imparting his knowledge fun and easily understood!
