Great tour - Great walking/history/food tour, our guide Marisa was friendly, engaging & knowledgeable. We tried pastizzi, ftira sandwich with tomato & tuna, Kinnie soft drink, maltese coffee with mini cakes/sweets & ended at a restaurant with choice of ravioli or stuffed rabbit preceded by small platter of maltese items (stuffed olives, maltese sausage, sun-dried tomatoes & cheese) followed by maltese halva, all food good quality. Inbetween we walked around Central Valletta saw various sights & heard lots if history. GREAT TOUR

Amazing All Round! - I highly recommend this food tour! Our guide was knowledgable, engaging and shared a ton of information and history of Malta. I love when a tour guide is upbeat and really knows the history of a city. We walked the streets of Valletta stopping for traditional food while learning about the history of this incredible city. I walked away from the tour knowing much more about Valetta and Malta that I did before the tour and got to sample some great local food.

Valetta foodie walking tour - Oh my, I’ve forgotten our lovely guide’s name but she lead us round Valetta on Monday morning, 28 April. She was very knowledgeable and friendly and her itinerary gave us an excellent intro to Maltese cuisine, history and the grid system of Valetta! We really enjoyed it, thank you!

A total waste of time and money. - Undeniably the worst food tour I’ve ever taken. After 90 minutes we arrived at our third location for our third bit of pastry. A complete waste of time. Save yourself the time and money.
