Summary:
This was a 6-hour private tour, my driver was Kenneth, and the vehicle was a beautiful new, large, comfortable van for only 3 people who signed up for the tour. Kenneth was on time picking me up from my hotel and very engaging. I easily get motion sickness so Kenneth invited me to sit in the front seat to reduce the effects. Although Kenneth was listed as only “the driver,” he was very informative about the area, the stops we were making, history behind the culture, food, materials, etc. we encountered on the tour. Such a joy to spend time talking with a local about things you wouldn’t normally encounter. We made stops at the Dingli Cliffs and Mdina as well as the glass factory and finally, Meridiana Wine Estate. He patiently waited for us to finish our free time at each stop. I give Kenneth and this tour an absolute 5-stars! He was a delight to speak with and his engaging manner made it easy to learn so much about Malta. HIGHLY suggest this tour, but ask for Kenneth! A plug for the drivers…PLEASE remember to tip them!! I was the only one out of 3 people that tipped Kenneth!

Summary:
If you only have a couple days this is a great way to hit the highlights. Meridiana winery was fun and tasty. Mdina is a fascinating view of the past. Dingli cliffs were a letdown compared to all else.

Summary:
The winery was beautiful, with very nice wines. Our driver was very nice, but seemed new at tours, felt very safe. Had five good pours of five different wines, all delicious. Very charcuterie plate. Cute lazy cats. Would recommend, and purchased some of the wines.
