09:30 AM

Meeting Point

City Gate, Valletta

- Just outside the main entrance of Valletta, at the beginning of the bridge that traverses the dry moat.

10:00 AM

Dingli Cliffs

We board our transport and head to to Dingli to enjoy Malta’s highest point with sweeping views of the open sea and countryside.


At about 250 meters above sea level, these are Malta’s highest cliffs. From here, you can admire spectacular views over the Mediterranean. The landscape is peaceful, with terraced fields and little chapels, giving a taste of rural Malta.


On the way you will hear about Malta's colourful history, our language, culture and traditions.

10:30 AM

Blue Grotto

Scenic stop overlooking the famous sea caverns. Optional: short boat trip (weather permitting, ~25 min) - €10 per person.

One of Malta’s most photographed natural landmarks. The limestone cliffs and sea caves reflect the sunlight, making the water glow with intense shades of blue and turquoise. Weather permitting we can do an optional 20-minute boat ride to see the grotto up close. Best visited in the morning when the light is at its most dramatic.

11:50 AM

Rabat

Rabat, Malta’s “suburb” of Mdina, is closely linked with the story of St. Paul, who was shipwrecked on the island in AD 60. The catacombs are an extensive underground burial complex used from Roman times into the early Christian period. With their rock-cut tombs and circular communal tables for funeral banquets, they illustrate the transition from pagan to Christian burial customs.

12:50 PM

Mdina

Explore the Silent City: Cathedral Square, bastions, and medieval alleys.

Known as the “Silent City”, Mdina was Malta’s capital for centuries. Its narrow medieval streets, palaces, and bastions create an atmosphere that has hardly changed in 1,000 years. Highlights include Cathedral Square, the bastion views stretching across the island, and the elegant facades of noble residences. The silence and timelessness make Mdina one of Malta’s most enchanting stops.

01:30 PM

Fontanella Tea Garden

Relaxed meal with panoramic views over Malta. Famous for tasty dishes with a Maltese flavour and its famous cakes.

Situated on the bastions, Fontanella Tea Garden is famous for its panoramic views over Malta and beyond to Gozo on a clear day. Their menu includes light dishes, but the highlight is their homemade cakes — especially the legendary chocolate cake. A relaxed and scenic setting for a lunch or coffee break (one may opt for either or both).

03:30 PM

Mosta Dome

Admire the third-largest unsupported dome in the world and hear the WWII “miracle bomb” story.

Formally the Rotunda of the Assumption, this church has one of the largest unsupported domes in the world. During WWII, a 500kg bomb pierced the dome during Mass but miraculously failed to explode — a story that has become part of Maltese collective memory. The interior is beautifully decorated, and visitors are often astonished by the scale of the dome. (Admission €3 per person)

About Tour Guide Martin F.

I’m Martin, a fully licensed Maltese tour guide with a lifelong passion for tourism. Over the years, I’ve worked across every facet of the industry—from hotel management to overseeing operations for a leading tourism management company.

I have hosted tour operators, travel agents, and key decision-makers visiting Malta for the first time. My role was to showcase the island's potential and convince them to include Malta as one of their main destinations. I didn’t just plan itineraries—I crafted unforgettable experiences. From cultural and historical highlights to seaside charm, vibrant nightlife, and hidden village gems, I ensured every guest experienced Malta at its most vivid and welcoming.

My career also took me beyond Malta. I’ve managed tourism operations in destinations such as the Azores, Sicily, Dubai, Oman, and the Canary Islands—broadening my perspective and deepening my expertise in destination management.

As a guide, I bring more than just facts. I bring context. I know Malta’s history and its role within the broader story of European events. I know the island’s rhythms, its culture and traditions, and where to find the best cafés, restaurants, and tucked-away treasures. Whether it’s arranging access to the top of a church belfry, exploring closed-off sections of Valletta’s fortifications, or enjoying the peaceful pace of an off-the-map village, I can create experiences that go far beyond the ordinary.



Reviews

Zwei tolle, individuelle & erstklassige Touren mit Martin

Unsere private Führung mit Martin in Valletta am 6. und 7. März war ein echtes Highlight unserer Reise. Wir waren eine kleine Gruppe von fünf Paaren, und Martin hat die Tour sehr individuell und persönlich gestaltet. Am Freitag führte er uns durch Valletta und erklärte dabei nicht nur die Geschichte Maltas und der Stadt, sondern auch die besondere strategische Lage der Insel im Mittelmeer. Seine Erklärungen waren spannend, lebendig und sehr verständlich – und das in ausgezeichnetem Deutsch. Nur bei einigen speziellen Begriffen wechselte er kurz ins Englische, was aber überhaupt kein Problem war. Der krönende Abschluss dieses Tages war der Besuch der beeindruckenden St. John’s Co-Cathedral. Am Samstag ging es weiter zum St. Catherine’s Monastery – ein absoluter Geheimtipp, da dieses Kloster erst vor kurzem für Besucher geöffnet wurde und deshalb noch weitgehend unbekannt ist. Anschließend machten wir eine wunderschöne Hafen-Cruise ab Sliema, bei der wir Valletta und die historischen Befestigungen noch einmal aus einer ganz besonderen Perspektive erleben konnten. Martin ist ein äußerst kompetenter, engagierter und sympathischer Guide. Er hat sich um alles gekümmert, jede Frage aus unserer Gruppe geduldig beantwortet und die Führungen mit vielen interessanten Anekdoten und echten Insider-Informationen bereichert. Wer Valletta und Malta wirklich verstehen und gleichzeitig eine unterhaltsame, entspannte Tour erleben möchte, sollte Martin unbedingt buchen – mit ihm macht eine Führung nicht nur schlau, sondern vor allem richtig Spaß.

Lieber Christof, vielen Dank für Ihren ausführlichen und sehr lobenden Bericht über Ihre Erlebnisse auf der Insel. Ich weiß das sehr zu schätzen. Ich möchte Ihnen und Ihren Freunden ebenfalls danken, dass Sie so angenehme Zuhörer waren; es hat mir wirklich Spaß gemacht, mit Ihnen zusammen zu sein. Man trifft selten so freundliche und sympathische Menschen. Sie sind ein perfektes Beispiel dafür, was diesen Beruf so erfüllend macht. Nochmals vielen Dank und ich wünsche Ihnen eine gute Heimreise mit vielen schönen Erinnerungen, die Sie mit Ihren Freunden teilen können.

Excellent, knowledgeable, adaptable guide.

Martin was Great. He was able to quickly pivot to change our tour as we had already seen some of the content. His knowledge was first-class. He was very friendly, considerate and obliging. Martin went above and well beyond with Additional scope and time which we were more than happy to compensate for, beyond his expectations. A 1st class person.
