I read the reviews beforehand and didn’t believe them when they said you’d be full. I warn you, come hungry. You will have eaten before you’ve even left the meeting point. Chris greeted us with pastries and introduced himself and got to know each individual member of the group. He was so engaging provided great knowledge and humour along the route. Facts and food, what’s not to love! Booked via Marriott Bonvoy Tours and Activities

We explored the Maltese cuisine with a brilliant guide who procured the finest Maltese delicacies for us, all of which had interesting historical anecdotes attached to them. This tour is a wonderful introduction to the local culture and history. The whole experience was elevated by the warmth and enthusiasm of our guide.

This was the best food tours i have been lucky to participate on. Chris provided an amazing experience full of historical facts and educational information. His passion to engage with the group through comedic jest made it more than just a tour. If you did not know much about this beautiful island you sure will by the end of it. The food tasting was a delight and will no doubt set many to be more adventurous with their pallets. The only downside was it ended after approximately after 2.5hrs I would quite happily signed up for another hour. I hope if my family returns Chris would have added some of the other delightful hidden gems that Malta has to offer. This was a 5 star professional production from a native who has put together a fantastic live show. Chris take a bow, what an amazing experience you delivered 👏 🙌 👍 😀 👌

This was hands-down THE bet way to experience Valletta- so many delicious food samples, wonderful commentary from an exceptional guide. It was the perfect balance of food, culture, and a bit of history. Appreciated that the main focus was on the FOOD, as that is what we signed up for. FANTASTIC.

The Guide for the food tour provided or arranged gluten free alternatives for me during the tour. So much appreciated. Chris, our guide was amazing. So knowledgeable about the history of Malta and with some humour too. This was so much more than a food tour, though the food and drinks were delicious. Thanks you so much Chris.
