My partner and I were enthused with the experience as we tried a few different pastries, locals' favourite drinks and other local food. We were thrilled to learn about the history of the food and how their culture towards food came about as the guide ensured that he explained the history very well. I believe it was worth the money we spent.

We had a wonderful time on this food tour! Matthew the tour guide was amazing, he has so much knowledge of Valletta and the history of Malta! We went on the tour on the first day of our trip, and it was the perfect tour to get a layout of the city and a taste of Maltese delicacies. We had so much food on this tour - and they catered for vegetarian/ pescatarin diets! We went back to the spots that Matthew took us the next day as they were so yummy!! Please book this tour as you will not regret it! Instructions for the meeting point in the morning were clearly laid out and it was super easy to find the group! If it was busy/nosy around us, the tour guide had a speaker to make sure everyone could hear the information. It was a very casual and nice pace around the city, so it's perfect for all levels. Additionally, there was plenty of time at each stop and if we wanted more time to keep looking around, then that wasn't a problem! Thank you to the Colour My Travel team!!

This was an exceptional tour. A perfect mix between eating and a history lesson. Don’t eat before you go as you start this tour eating some delicious street food and you end the tour with a sit down meal! The coffee stop is perfect. We went back and bought Carnival cakes! Our guide was able to move easily between a history lesson to modern Malta. Don’t miss this tour!
