Welcome! My name is Victoria and I live in Gharghur, North East of Malta. I am a licensed, professional tour guide since 2005. For several years I have been informing and entertaining visitors from across the country and around the world about the sights and history of our beautiful country. Tour guiding was always my dream. At school, history was always my favourite subject and visiting places of interest was my biggest pleasure. I fulfilled my dream when I was 17 years. I was accepted by the Malta Tourism Institute to participate in the Tour Guiding Course. After 2 years of an intensive full time course, the Malta Tourism Authority had recognized me as one of its qualified guides. Being a tour guide is an exciting job that introduces you to people and places average travelers and tourists never experience, but it also requires solid skills and knowledge. To ensure this, I participate in various seminars and events in my field. Recently, I participated in a tourism-related EU funded project, consisting of an intensive course equivalent to the level of a Diploma in Tourism Management. I will be more than happy to help you plan your holiday or show you the most interesting places in the Maltese Islands, either by visiting the oldest free-standing temples in the world, the UNESCO World Heritage city of Valletta, the medieval town of Mdina, the island of Gozo steeped in tradition, or by following one of the many nature trails. Besides the popular traditional tours I also offer a number of excellent themed itineraries for all the different types of groups and ages and have been recommended by many including National Geographic. Together we can design a programme which suits your interests best. I have a passion for where I live and I have many ideas for exciting trips that I could take you on. I look forward to meeting you!

Valletta, Malta's capital and a World Heritage site, is nothing short of an open-air museum. It is a living experience of Baroque architecture, a monument donated by the Knights of St John nearly five centuries ago. Throughout the years, Valletta has welcomed emperors, heads of state, artists and poets and is now the permanent seat of the Maltese government. Dotted with quaint cafés and wine bars, the city is today one of Malta's main tourist attractions, hosting among others, the majestic St John's Co- Cathedral, the Grand Masters Palace, the imposing bastions and a treasure of priceless paintings. It also provides a stunning snapshot of Malta's Grand Harbour, often described as the most beautiful in the Mediterranean. Visit our Capital City and admire the bastion walls, the dense clusters of worn limestone buildings, the timber balconies, and imposing Churches!
Our day and the time we start the tour is flexible and is meant to accommodate your schedule and interests. Visit the Upper Barracca Gardens for a panoramic view of Malta's largest natural harbour. Guided Tour along the main streets of the city seeing the Auberges and chapels of the Knights of St John, the Renzo Piano parliament building, main entrance and Opera ruins. Walk to St. John's Co-Cathedral and the Caravaggio paintings. (Visit is optional) No shoulderless tops, stiletto shoes or shorts are allowed inside the Co-Cathedral. Continue on foot to the Magisterial Palace. (Visit is optional) Enjoy some minutes of free time for shopping and independent sightseeing. There may be occasions without any prior notice when either the Co-Cathedral or the Magisterial Palace is closed due to official functions. If this should occur, a visit to the Palace Armory and/or the National Museum of Archaeology can be done. Guests should wear comfortable walking shoes.
