The pace was just right, with time at each stop to enjoy the food and chat with other guests if you’d like. Our guide, Ernest, was animated, informative, and made the experience lively and engaging. Considering the planning and coordination behind a tour like this, I found it well worth it.”

“The guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his subject and the history of this amazing place. Unfortunately we had very little time to wander around Mdina after seeing Rabat and the catacombs. It would have been fine if it hadn't been raining and getting late by the time we got into Mdina (around 5:20). Be sure to plan time to spend in Mdina after or before the tour to fully appreciate the town.”
