Hello and welcome to Malta! My name is John – though here on the island, I’m warmly known as Ġanni. For the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of working as a local tourist guide, after previous chapters of my life as a social worker, a chef, and more. Each of these experiences has shaped me, but my greatest passion has always been sharing the history, culture, and hidden treasures of Malta. I enjoy bringing Malta’s rich history, culture, and hidden corners to life, offering tours that are informative, relaxed, and enjoyable. My goal is to give visitors a genuine feel of the island, combining local insight with memorable experiences that go beyond the usual sightseeing. All my tours can be customized, please do not hesitate to contact me, and I will do my best to accommodate your requests!
