Greetings from Malta. I have been a guide for over 25 years and will make sure to use all my experience and knowledge of Malta & Gozo to provide you and your family a wonderful and informative time. I was born and raised in the town of Sliema, Malta and have always been happily active in the hospitality industry, organizing and guiding various tours and activities, including destination weddings for foreign couples. Although the serene and raw beauty of scenic Malta still fascinated me most at first glance, I myself am an avid archaeologist and a descendant of James Somerville, who was a lead excavator of the Ggantija Temples on Gozo. The architecture prowess of us Maltese, empowered by our local limestone, has prevailed up to present times and is one of the most outstanding features in the course of all our tours. I am also well acquainted with strategic wartime Malta and possess an extensive knowledge of Malta's political, geological and economical background. Your day on tour will be customized to your benefit. I look forward to meeting you in my beautiful country of Malta. Thank you, Alfred. - National Tourist Guide certificate. - Chauffeur License.

Overview of your Valletta tour

After your hotel/port pick up, we will discover the best of the island of Malta in 7 hours. Unless specifically requested, we usually desist from too much walking and avail ourselves all the more of the available comfortable transportation to sightsee and assimilate the information that I, as your guide, will impart to you on the way to and during our selected stops at the various places of interest. This strategy builds up the momentum of the excursion and the visitor's interest and anticipation for the particular site in question. As an experienced guide, I will give a running commentary eloquently to correlate the historic events which unfolded over time in Malta with the visual impressions the visitor experiences during the course of the tour. This tour offers a varied itinerary. It combines historic cities with quaint picturesque fishing villages and prehistoric temples with magnificent churches. Photo stops are as numerous as the countless panoramas and pristine places of interest included in the tour.

This was an exceptional tour with Alfred. He picked us up on time and while touring around Valletta, he was able to point out all the sights and talk to us because he had a driver, which made it very easy for us to communicate and interact with him. His knowledge of Valletta was unending. He had researched some private questions we had had for him and shared that information with us which was exciting. The tour of the medieval city was just spectacular! The tour lasted the entire day and we have so many great memories. Alfred was the best, and we can't imagine anyone having the the depth of knowledge that he did since he had lived there all his life.

Great tour for an overview of Malta Our guide Alfred was excellent as well as a native born Maltese citizen. Super knowledgeable about Malta’s history. Unlike other places in the world that are old, the Maltese built buildings back in the 15 hundreds and they are still in modern use!

Alfred is well organized and an expert tour guide. We learned so much about Malta’s history, geography and contemporary Malta life. Thoroughly enjoyed the day.

We were in Malta for the beginning of a cruise and wanted to see more of the Island than what the cruise company would show us, so we went a day early and booked an all-day tour with Albert. We reviewed with Albert where the cruise company was going to take us and he adjusted his itinerary so that we didn't duplicate things. He and his driver, Ray, took us to most of the main sights. He was very knowledgeable and Ray was a good driver and very polite. They were both good people to be with. He took us to a small restaurant for lunch that had very good food. That was nice and special for me. While we saw many things, the most interesting to me was the caves where people lived during the bombing of Malta in World War II (in Rabat). If you’re going to fly all the way to Malta, I recommend you do a private tour to see more of the island. While the cruise company took us to a few places, it wasn’t much. We would have missed a lot of Malta without the extra day tour. And I highly recommend Albert and Ray for that private tour.

Alfred is an excellent guide. Punctual, professional, knowledgeable and nice. We ( two couples in their 70’s) had a wonderful day in Malta with Alfred. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed our half day walking tour of Valletta with Mirabel. We saw so many historic sites and learned much about the history of Malta. A highlight of our trip to Malta!

Your Valletta tour itinerary

Pick up from any location of your choice. Our first stop will take us to the beautiful scenic cities of Senglea and Birgu, followed by a visit of Malta's quintessential fishing village, Marsaxlokk. Our next two stops are at the Blue Grotto & the ancient neolithic Temple of Hagar Qim, which we will both view from the outside. The boat trip to the Grotto depends on the weather and is optional. We'll take a short lunch break in the former medieval city of Mdina and enjoy a walking tour around this small but impressive silent city, steeped in time. From there we will visit the Church of Mosta, with its all impressive 4th largest dome in the world. A couple of photo stops on the perimeter coast line of Valletta will bring this tour to a pleasurable close. Return to Hotel/ship.
