Never showed up
Super disappointed. We were at the location noted on our tickets 30 minutes early and waited 30 minutes beyond our pickup time and the tour never showed up. We tried calling and emailing with provider during the window and received no response (and still haven’t yet). Even worse, we requested a refund through Viator which was unapproved (because the tour operator denied it for some reason). I have since disputed the charge from my credit card company.

We were picked up at DB...
We were picked up at DB Resort. We were 1st picked up and last dropped off so about 3 hours of driving just to get to where tour began and ended. Also there was a mixed group of English and French speakers, though this tour was aimed more at English speakers. So when our English guide was speaking, the French group sat in bus talking amongst their selves making it very distracting for our English group to hear our tour guide. Also, when we got to the winery, the women at winery only spoke English, and again, while she was explaining the wines and wine making in Malta, the French group again over talked her which I found very distracting and disrespectful to the women trying to speak. I understand why the French group was upset, as this was clearly aimed at English speakers. However, I feel having the French group speak over both our tour guide and the women at winery was very distracting and rude. The French should have had their own tour away from English speakers. The tour itself was very nice and Mario our tour guide did a great job. The women at winery was also great, very knowledgeable, however she was also distracted from the French group. I’d only do this tour again with English only group.

3 cities and wine tasting
Trip was easy to book. Good value for money. Guide was very knowledgeable and told us lots of information not only about the 3 cities but also about Malta its history and economy. Wine tasting guide was very informative told us all about the wine and about what grapes were used and the process and history of each wine. I would recommend this trip.

Good way to quickly get in two activities in a short time.
This was a good way to get a quick look at the 3 cities with a guide who knew interesting information. The wine tasting was good, but it is a big bus tour with lots of people and a buffet style food pairing so not as good as others that I have been on. Still was fun though.

Great guide, great wine and food!
Michael our local guide was so lovely and had a lot of good knowledge and history about the places we were visiting. He was funny, sweet and very engaging as a guide. The host at the wine tasting was also so lovely and knew a lot about wine in the region and served us some lovely options with a delicious Maltese antipasti. All In all, a lovely tour.

Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Valletta.
How much does Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $53 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 Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.6/5 across 113 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.
Can I cancel or reschedule Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour?
+
Around 40 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Valletta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Valletta?
+
On Outty we rank every Valletta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Valletta Food Tour, The Original Valletta Walking Tour, Valletta Walking Tour, In a Small Group. 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.
What is included in Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour?
+
Included: Local guide; Wine tasting; Snacks; Local taxes; and Pick up and drop off at Hotel or Nearest Point. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 27 listed pickup locations in and around Valletta. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Malta: The Three Cities and Wine Tasting Tour?
