I really enjoyed the tour. The hotel we stayed in was excellent. It has great location, harbor view and the service was wonderful.
The itinerary was good though I would have liked couple of excursions included, especially the harbour cruise and the grand mastger's palace.
Over all the trip was a success for me. Thank you

Kudos to this tour operator and the staff members, but the lion’s share goes to Omar Gubernati, the managing director of the company. No words could describe and explain how incredibly and amazingly Omar is. He is superb in organizing our private tour in Malta and Sicily. He went beyond my expectations. He made all possible the things I requested. He tailored our tour with different tour guides and drivers everyday, who were all friendly and professionals in their respective chosen profession. I was really fortunate that I booked our trip with the agency. The places we visited were full of history, surrounded with centuries old buildings and fortified walls everywhere in Malta, the country seems the world’s oldest. Our day trip in Sicily is just a wink of an eye. We just drove around, like a hop on and hop off touring style. It should’ve been better if we stayed a day or two. Anyway, we’re glad to see part of Sicily. I highly recommend this company and particularly Omar Gubernati, who deserves 5 stars.

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.
