Valletta Tours in October 2026

A great chance to spend a week in Malta & Gozo seeing most of what the islands have to offer but avoiding the beaches. Chantelle was an excellent tour leader. Her knowledge of the area is impressive & she really cares that people enjoy the trip. Highly recommended.

We really enjoyed Malta and Sicily trips. All guides at sites visited were v knowledgeable and informative; both tour leaders, Chantelle and Daniele, were enthusiastic and went to great lengths to make our trip the best possible, and we had some interesting and fun fellow travellers. Thanks very much.

We saw many sites, had three boat rides, and went to many places in a short period of time. The coastline of Gozo is spectacular. Our guide, Chantelle, taught us history, ancient and modern. She shared her country with us from a perspective of passion and knowledge. Our group dinners together were fun and we ate at wonderful restaurants at Chantelle's recommendation. I highly recommend this trip. Malta and Gozo are beautiful, deeply historical and varied in many so different ways. Coming from the US I arrived a few days early to get over the jet lag before the tour started. I recommend that as the days were full.

Chantelle was excellent, mainly because of her sense f humour and energy. Malta is gorgeous, hotel on Gozo was basic but ok. The tour packs a lot in, as with most explore trips I feel I’ve seen a lot.

Gozo was wonderful and definitely worth 2 days. Malta probably only needs 3 days not 4 or swap a couple of activities to allow more free time in Valletta or Mdina. In the 6 days, there were 4 boat rides, 3 related to seeing blue grottoes or cliffs. The longer Valletta boat trip was very good and perhaps one grotto ride would be enough. The afternoon spent with a local farmer was far too long. Plus while it was nice to be in 1 hotel for 5 days ie Sliema, perhaps 3 there and 2 further south closer to Mdina would be better. We did the Classic Sicily the week before which was busier so enjoyed the slower pace but I would have found the Malta week too slow by itself.

Chantelle was an organised and knowledgeable guide who made sure to answer all questions and supported each group member. Malta and Gozo are lovely places to explore with great history, culture and food.
