★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 788 reviews · 4 hours · from $81

Review of Malta’s Lazy Pirate Boat Party, with open bar, DJ music, snacks, sunset sailing, and a moonlight swim from Sliema.

“We were a group of 5 girls, we really enjoyed the experience overall. Drinks were good and there was good music. The swim stop wasn’t great if you specifically want to swim but it’s fine for what it it. The only negative was the security got very aggressive with one of my friends when she was trying to find the rest of the group, swearing and pushing her.”

Taste pastizzi, ftira, Maltese drinks, and more while exploring Valletta’s history, food culture, landmarks, and local shops.

“We had a great time trying some Maltese, traditional and current food selections. The locations were diverse from coffee shops to open market. The Maltese cuisine is adopted from many cultures so it does lack a bit of originality. In my opinion, it is worth taking this tour as a guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Malta, including some specific points in Valaretta that proved to be very interesting. Overall, it’s worth the time.”

Malta food and history tour review covering Mdina, Rabat, Mosta, Valletta, local dishes, guides, transport, pricing, and practical booking advice.

“I had very high hopes based on the reviews for this private tour, but ended up very disappointed overall. First off, we were picked up in Valletta for an extra fee, which was fine, but our driver to Mdina knew nothing of our tour or who we were meeting or where. He dropped us off a Mdina and drove away, leaving us with no way to contact our guide. Fortunately, we found her a few minutes later. She was very, very nice and quite knowledgeable.
