Michelle | Licensed Guide | Art History Specialist | into archeology, art & cuisine Welcome! I’m Michelle, a local licensed guide with an academic background in Art History and Hospitality. I specialize in the central Mediterranean heritage of Malta and Gozo, offering an authentic look at our history—from Baroque art and the Knights of Malta to 5,000-year-old prehistoric temples and megalithic sites. ~ Bespoke Private Tours and Shore Excursions ~ My customizable private tours of Malta and Gozo feature UNESCO World Heritage sites and 17th-century baroque architecture to medieval and 19th century. Whether exploring the fortified walls of Valletta, viewing Caravaggio’s masterpieces at St. John’s Co-Cathedral, or visiting the Silent city of Mdina s medieval streets, my private tour and shore excursion itineraries always focus on your interests. My itineraries often include the salt sellers at Marsaxlokk Fish Market and villages close to the Blue Grotto, and the prehistoric art from the ancient megalith temples of Ġgantija and Ħaġar Qim temples. My tours have been the choice of corporate companies, international media, diplomats, and cruise guests seeking more than a standard Malta excursion. ~ Customized Experiences ~ Every private tour or shore excursion of Malta and Gozo is customized to your interests, from artisan shopping for Malta lace , ceramics or blown glass to seasonal honey apiaries and olive presses and Sunday morning atmosphere of a local summer village "festa". My tours can include visits artists' studios, and exhibitions like the Malta Biennale 2026, ensuring ample time for art-history discussion and local connection. ~ Transport and Comfort ~ for vehicles moving us around, I collaborate with vetted local transport companies and professional drivers. My tours utilize diverse modes: guided walking, high-speed city elevators, and air-conditioned European vehicles—ranging from electric sedans and Ford people carriers to premium luxury models. For a traditional touch, I incorporate traditional ‘daghajsa’ ferry boats (gondola wooden type ferry) harbor crossings, the Gozo Fast Ferry, or vintage buses for large groups. Available for half-day and full-day private tours and shore excursions of Malta and Gozo from the Valletta Cruise Port or your hotel. Please message me to customize an itinerary to your specific interests.
