Infectious walking tour for all ages - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an incredible walking tour around Valletta with Chris as our guide. From start to finish, he was engaging, knowledgeable, and full of fascinating insights that brought the city’s rich history to life. Our group of eight included a 10-year-old and two teenagers, and Chris managed to keep everyone—young and old—completely captivated throughout. Even those of us who had visited Valletta before discovered new stories and hidden gems we’d never noticed. Chris’s passion for the city is infectious, and his ability to tailor the experience to suit all ages made it truly memorable. We all walked away having learned so much and loving every minute of it. Highly recommended!

Best walking tour of my life - Chris is the best guide I had the pleasure to do a walking tour with. The fact that we were in a small group was great, as he would learn our names and really make a personalized experience. 10/10!

Educational and fun walking tour! - Had a lovely evening tour with Chris! He was very attentive to the group, staying in the shade where possible. He spoke with a lot of love and passion and was able to get engage the group with their own nationalities and cultures. Especially enjoyed his use of photos to demonstrate. Would highly recommend!

Malta A Beautiful Island - Wonderful visit to the charming town. Expect wind, sunshine, and pleasant locals. Too much to see in one day, but the tour guide was very into history, maybe a little too long winded and not enough into moving quicker. Mdina old city was spectacular! Highly recommend.

Informative & Enjoyable Walking Tour of Valletta with Lorraine. - Thanks so much to Lorraine, of Best Tours Malta, I learned so much on this fascinating, small group, walking tour of Valletta. We were only 8 guests, and Lorraine managed to share several centuries of history, anecdotes, and stories, keeping us all in the shade as much as possible. I will definitely be back to the Malta and will book the three cities tour next. Thank you very much.

Excellent tour - We chose this tour because of its high ratings and the fact it was limited to a small group. Lorraine was an excellent guide. She pitched the level of information really well, lots of history and background presented in a really engaging way. We had lots of stops and there was a nice comfort break in the Barraka gardens. If you do the 10:00 tour you won't see the cannons at noon, but they fire again at 16:00. We were very happy with our choice and would definitely recommend. There was one long flight of shallow steps up to Hastings gardens, the rest was level. There are some very steep up and down streets in Valetta.

An enjoyable morning tour - A well informed, interesting tour with a lovely guide. We didn't walk far and I would have liked to have done so, but saw the main sights at a gentle pace.
