What people are saying about Valletta

It was a very nice experience. The hotel pick-up was right on time, the group was a great size - not too small and not too big. The ferry was also included in the price of the tour, we got to take a small private ferry which was very fun, and also coming back from Gozo the ferry took us near the cliffs of Gozo for photos. The guide was amazing. He was caring and always checking if everyone is feeling well and is good to continue. The tour itself was long, we got to see pretty much the whole island of Gozo. Lunch was also included in the price and was 100% filling. We took stops to take pictures. Overall would recommend it.
