this was a wonderful tour seeing both Mdina and Valletta. our guide Jeremy was very informative about the history and happily told us all about the history of the country and the two towns and those that surround it. The tour is one I would recommend to all wanting to see the different areas of Malta, especially when you are on a cruise ship with limited time
