My friend Kylie and I had the wonderful Victoria show us around Valletta for a drinks and bites tour for 2.5hrs. We found Victoria to be professional, interesting and friendly in the delivery of her service. Not only were all our questions answered, we were given a great insight into the importance of the Maltese history. Victoria is a very personable guide who is proud of her country and happy to share with her clients. Thank you Victoria, we are happy to highly recommend you as a guide in Malta!Friendly, informative, interesting

Our group had a fantastic time with Victoria on our walking and food tour. Victoria was engaging and informative and provided a great history of Valetta. Victoria took time to get to know all of us on an individual basis. As a group we shared many of a laugh, over some local cuisine and beverages. Informative and fun

Bruna was very friendly and welcoming to our group. She started with a great introduction to some core historic references in Valletta as we walked around the city and then we headed to a restaurant to try a local aperitif and some Maltese food. Afterwards we headed for some dessert.
Bruna shared her experience and stories of living in Malta, which made the tour feel personable. Wonderful host - great city intro

If you want a high quality introduction to Valetta and Malta you must meet Victoria and have her take you around. Historical over view was excellent and she took us to places that other tours don’t go. Victoria’s local food tips and suggestions were excellent and much appreciated. I would definitely recommend booking with Victoria. Great experience with Victoria.

We loved our tour of Valletta with Victoria she was super knowledgeable and helped us to get oriented with the city with lots of history and fun facts too. She was great at suggesting an alternative start time for our tour avoid heat of the day and met us directly at our hotel. Victoria was a lovely person and we enjoyed spending time with her.Tour of Valletta

Victoria has great knowledge about Valletta an its history. I got dizzy by all the mentioned celebrations and all matching food.
We walked around the center and tasted food at the places for the locals, curiously little other tourist at the spots. Certainly no tourist food!
Luckily we found a cooking book with the tasted snacks. Now we are going to try to replicate the good feeling of Malta.
Thank you Victoria, a walk to remember. We had great fun!Great walk! Great taste!

Victoria was a great guide, sharing history of the area and the food as we walked around Valletta. Of particular note was the library and the band rooms, little cafes and centres for the community to gather. We never would have found some of these places without a local guide. Totally worthwhile experience.Hidden gems in Valletta

Our culinary tastes walk with Victoria started with meeting outside the main court building on Republic Street. We strolled and were told about the early history of Malta and some of the impressive buildings built by the Knights Templar and later occupiers of the islands, we then tried our first local speciality pastizzi a filo envelope filled with chicken or ricotta style cheese a three bite delicious snack from a little bake shop.in a side street we then moved on to a small bar/cafe called the Museum cafe,where we had a local sourdough sandwich (fcira) filled with tuna, salad beans,tomato and tomato paste,onion, capers and sliced onion. Delicious and very popular with locals and visitors We also tried a local bean curd paste and cheese with a pepper coating. All delicious and well worth seeking out.We walked on with loads more information on the work.of the Knights Templar building grand houses and churches, passed close to the Cathedral of St John and the to another little shop to taste a honey based treat popular with locals which we chose to have boxed for later in the day. Next back to Republic Street and the very posh Caffe Cordina a lovely cafe styled on the great Vienna coffee shops, must with posing citizens and their patisserie called cannoli o pastry tube filled with sweet cheese or a pistachio curd very yummy! Our final stroll.psst more impressive Templar built palaces used by the government to our last stop 'The Pub' in Archbishop Street famous for a very blow away visit by Oliver Reed when filming 'Gladiator ' which resulted in a fatal excess of liquid joy! A quirky place to end our excellent tour with a glass of the local beer.A walk with a local in Valetta

We booked Victoria for the Hidden Gems tour of Valletta & it proved to be a wonderful decision all round. This was our fifth 'With Locals' tour and against a previous high-bar was arguably our best so far - Victoria is knowledgable, experienced, personable & simply a joyous guide to show you the undisputed delights of Valletta - worth every penny and we recieved the most pleasurable and informative 3 hour tour - perfect in every way - thank youVictoria & Valletta - a perfect pairing

Absolutely brilliant! The knowledge and narrative that Victoria has on Valletta and Malta is immense....even after 6 days around Valletta, we thought we'd left it too late to get the full benefit but we didn't (it was impossible to book Victoria before then).
Lots of little gems to find and so many interesting explanations around the history, art, buildings, architecture and hidden local communities that you simply can't locate just meandering the streets and visiting the key attractions.
A great end to our holiday. Thank you. Highlight of our holiday

Yesterday we went to Mdina and Rabat with Victoria as our guide.
Our contact prior to the visit was very smooth and meeting Victoria at the gates of Mdina was easy.
On our tour around the cities Victoria was very good at informing us of details and small stories. She was attentive to our students and welcomed their questions. When finishing the historic tour, Victoria gave us tips on where to go and what to have for lunch. And also which local treats to try. All of this was greatly appreciated by us and our students.
Thank you for great day.Wonderful Victoria

We (a group of 5) booked for 4pm, and moved to 5pm to accommodate Bruna's schedule (or we could move to a colleague). There were only 2 food stops: one at a food stand by the Triton Fountain, for pastizzi (cheese/pea) and the second at Luciano in Merchants Street, for a platter and a pizza. Bruna also gave us a box of Maltese biscuits. The tour lasted only 2 hours, not 3, finishing at the Queen Victoria Pub. After the tour we asked why, and it was because we were "very energetic". The tour was not absolutely not worth the EUR425.43 we paid, and WithLocals has provided a gift voucher for part of the cost.Disappointing

Our 2 back-to-back tours with Victoria were excellent (The Culinary Kickstart & The Three Cities Tours).
We had a wonderful experience with Victoria despite the rain. She was our sunshine. Victoria was flexible and accommodating to our needs and expectations. Victoria is very very knowledgeable, personal, fun and passionate about Malta. We sure appreciated her humorous manner in sharing her personal comments on different topics during our tours. The city of Birgu is not to be missed and we tasted such lovely local food.! Victoria even gave us her WhatsApp so that we could message her for recommendations for our free time!
Our stay in Malta was definitely enhanced by Victoria's 2 tours, complementing very well our organized motor coach tour.
We will definitely seek her out if returning to Malta! Thank you Victoria!Wonderful time in Malta with Victoria!

Our tour with Victoria was fab - we were a large group from all over the world but unfortunately a little limited on time and the weather was not in our favour! Despite all that, she provided a fantastic tour for our group - an informative overview of the history of Mdina, scenic route through the windy streets to see and learn about the most striking landmarks and even tailored the tour to add in some unique nuances that personalised the tour to us (church visit and coffee shop stop). Victoria was professional, a fountain of fun and interesting knowledge, super friendly and a guide we would highly recommend! Extremely good value for money. I will definitely seek her out if returning for a personal visit too - thank you!!!The Perfect Host!

We had an interesting time with Victoria yesterday. We had booked a walking food tour of Vallatta as we thought that would offer a different experience to just a walking tour.
We were not disappointed! It was a marvellous morning discovering the food history of the capital. I would really recommend Victoria ( her knowledge was amazing!) and this tour. Don’t have breakfast. You are going to be nibbling all morning!
Highly recommended.

Victoria was our energetic, engaging and delightful guide who led us on two separate walks during our time in Valletta - a Valletta Kickstart tour and an in-depth walking tour of Mdina and Rabat.
Her amazing knowledge of Malta and its history is indeed impressive, and she passionately conveyed this during the tours. Her explanations and descriptions really helped us gain an understanding into the heart of this beautiful country - and the events that have shaped it.
She also gave us many brilliant tips and suggestions for the rest of our time in Valletta - invaluable to get all this from a local!
Thank you, Victoria! We will definitely be recommending you to all our family and friends!An Amazing Guide - Highly recommend!!

She knows so much history about all the buildings! We had asked her to show us a few specific things (including local pastries), which she did and showed us much more. She also made great recommendations for other things to do while we were in the city. Thanks Victoria, we had an amazing time!Victoria + Malta = Fabulous!

Victoria is an extremely nice lady with a lot of knowledge about Valetta. She gave a good overview, jumping from one topic to the other, which made it kind of interesting.

She also gave us a few helpful tips for restaurants to visit and even walked us to our first reservation. Really nice. Crazy little walk

Victoria was a polite and informative guide. We had an easy pace around the whole of Valletta with Victoria explaining the history of the island and pointing out the history of significant buildings from the Knights Templar to the British.Victoria recommended we go back in our own time to see at leisure a number of buildings, eg Cathedral and Hospital or underground tunnels.
An enjoyable and relaxing tour
