What you'll see and do
Enjoy a 4-course dinner with free-flowing local wine and mineral water in one of the island's most historically rich restaurants. Our long-standing experience, coupled with our chefs’ explosive creativity, have enabled us to introduce a new take on Maltese cuisine; one which serves as a fusion between the old and the new. For an evening of culinary delights sprinkled with a lot of liveliness, join us on one of our special folklore dinner shows. These special nights start at 19:30 hrs. and end at approximately 22:30 hrs. After dinner our folklore show features six dancers in traditional eighteenth-century costumes who will lure you into a jovial story of Maltese history told through dance. Our dancefloor also elevates to enable you to watch the show comfortably from your dining table. After the show and après-dinner the dancefloor will light up, with soft or popular music according to the mood, to make your own history of a truly unforgettable evening!

Don’t waste your money-terrible
This was the worst food I have ever had in my life. We left it was so bad. We never even stayed for the dancing. Not to mention the driver that picked us up had no idea where we were going and it finally took my daughter to put the directions in her phone after we passed the same street 4 times. Don’t waste your money

Folklore Evening Dinner Show at a Traditional Maltese Restaurant Incl. Transfers: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Valletta.
How much does Folklore Evening Dinner Show at a Traditional Maltese Restaurant Incl. Transfers cost?
+
Prices start at $75 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Valletta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Folklore Evening Dinner Show at a Traditional Maltese Restaurant Incl. Transfers take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Valletta is not rushed.
Is Folklore Evening Dinner Show at a Traditional Maltese Restaurant Incl. Transfers worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 38 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Valletta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Is Folklore Evening Dinner Show at a Traditional Maltese Restaurant Incl. Transfers suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Folklore Evening Dinner Show at a Traditional Maltese Restaurant Incl. Transfers?
+
Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Valletta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Valletta and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Valletta?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Valletta?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
