Trudy was a wonderful guide. Her insight into the history of Malta was amazing. Trudy planned the tour cleverly, to access all the important places and sights Malta had to offer, while mitigating the pedestrian and automobile traffic, to the best of her abilities. There was a Grand Prix race in town when we visited and she did her best to avoid the traffic bottle necks! Bravo! Trudy had a great grasp of the arts and was a phenomenal person to visit the famed Caravaggio paintings of the St. John's cathedral with. The Cathedral held so much historic relevance and she delivered it to us in a very user friendly, understandable manner. Trudy took time to visit a local renowned eatery with us and explained the savory treats that we sampled. I highly recommend Trudy to show you the Best of Malta!

How many times have you been abroad and missed out on many local attractions? Make sure to see the best especially if you are limited with time, as a tour guide since 1997, with an excellent knowledge about the Islands past and life, you will be in good hands. I am very passionate about our long and diverse history and take great pride in showing My Malta with its beautiful locations. So many momentous events took place these last 5000 years that is impossible to see them all in a few days however I will do my best to show you the highlights of this small island and hope you will also fall in love with it. Some of my personal interests besides working :), are sports, yoga, and my favourite and most expensive hobby is travelling. That is probably a reason why I always try to do my best with clients and to make their holiday a special one, with some jokes, some local insight and fun, knowing that holidays should always be remembered with warmth and nice memories, especially those of our little island.

Really wonderful and enriching experience!
We had a wonderful time with Trudy. She was very knowledgeable and had a bright, friendly manner. Trudy's itinerary was varied and gave us a good insight into the sights, history and local traditions. We felt very lucky to visit Mdina when the town was decorated for an upcoming religious parade. The pastizzi she recommended were great! Sharing lunch at the historic Caffe Cordina in Valetta was the perfect end to a special day. Thank you, Trudy
