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. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences

Visit the Capital City of the Knights of Malta in a Half Day Shore Excursion
Overview of your Valletta tour
The half day tour is perfect for cruise ship guests that have very little time but do not want to be out for a whole day. We can show you Valletta in more detail and save time by accessing town more expediently. We will make sure that you acquaint yourselves with our capital city of Valletta, both scenically and historically. The tour is also ideal for visitors residing in Malta, intent on exploring Valletta in a unique way. The tour can be customised, especially if the traveler has a special interest in a museum that is not usually visited by the mainstream tourist. Leave it to us to address your best interests. You may be an art lover and like to see the Caravaggio paintings in the ornate St. John's Co Cathedral, and you would certainly like to find out more about the Knights at the Grand Masters Palace. The city is predominantly pedestrian and extremely rich in architecture and cultural sites. The immediate surroundings of Valletta are very scenic and worth a couple of photo stops.

Eine Eindrucksvolle Reise auf den Spuren der Geschichte Maltas, dank unseres Guides Alfred. Es war ein toller Landausflug, mit allen vereinbarten Leistungen. Wir hatten einen tollen Tag auf Malta, gern wieder.
Brian B.United States
Alfred hosted our group of six people on a wonderful trip to learn about the entire Island of Gozo. Alfred is an expert in history, architecture, and the customs of the Maltese people. Alfred is a treasure to be associated with. We felt we really got to know him well…so much that we hired Alfred to take us on a tour of the Island of Malta the very next day. Once again on Malta, we had a wonderful time with great service. We all felt like Alfred became a very good friend to all of us in a very short amount of time. Everyone in our group recommends Alfred in the highest terms.
