This Blue-Roads tour was everything, and more, than I expected. The guide combined just the right amount of information with being personable and approachable. The itinerary was perfect: the more I saw and experienced, the more I fell in love with Malta. The group size (of just 14) was also perfect: we all got to know each other quickly and were soon one big happy family. Also, it meant no lengthy waiting around for toilet stops etc. because of the smallness of the group. Accommodation was first class, as were the included meals. I have done 5 Blue-Roads tours and so far, this was the very best one.
