Easy half day trip from Valleta
The tour guide was great. The weather didn't help. The boats didn't work but when she found out they did it was too late. So many coaches did the same tour so certain places overcrowded. The tour wasn't expensive but I would rather spend more and have a quality experience.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very pleased to hear that you found the tour guide excellent and appreciated her efforts throughout the trip. We’re sorry that the weather and the confusion regarding the boat operations affected your overall experience. We also understand that overcrowding at certain locations can make the tour less enjoyable, especially during busy periods. We will certainly take your observations into consideration as we continue working to improve our tours and services. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts with us.
A rather disappointing tour. I would recommend taking an Uber from your hotel to the Sunday Fish Market and avoid the "big bus overhead"
Good morning, Please send us more details so we can investigate further.
Marsaxlokk is a small fishing village.. so not much except to see hundreds of these colorful fishing boats in the port.. so lovely. There’s the usual markets and thing to buy and worth the trip.
Thank you for your positive feedback and we are glad to hear that you did enjoy the tour.
This tour was amazing. Our guide Lisa was very friendly and even if we were a big group, everything went smoothly. We had enough time to visit everything we wanted.
Dear Marilyn, we're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour. We hope you had a wonderful holiday on our island!
booked with Get your Guide perfectly arranged beautiful small boat for 20 people to the caves, comino, gozo and the Blue lagoon
We are glad that you enjoyed the tour that you booked with us.
Blue Grotto is a very suggestive place a wonderful wonder of nature a unique experience in seeing these blue waters, only shame that for reasons of time (very strong wind) prevented me from making the excursion with the boat for safety reasons. But it was equally very nice to see this place.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your tour.
Good tour with unexpected added visit to Qrendi. Blue grotto excellent. Boat driver was really helpful and informative. However would have preferred more time in Marsaxlokk instead of going to Qrendi. So basically cost is the bus !
Thank you for your feedback! We're happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. We will make sure to pass your comments along. We always aim to improve our tours to better satisfy our clients.
Absolutely brilliant tour - the bus picked us up right from outside our hotel and dropped us back at the end of the tour. Our guide was fantastic and took us through the history of Marsaxlokk, the Blue Grotto and surrounding areas.
Good afternoon. We are pleased to read your comments and have passed on your positive feedback accordingly. We look forward to having you join us again in the future. Best regards SMS team
