Transportation was rough,...
Transportation was rough, apparently the usual van was broken down and they used one the that was for beach stuff. Dirty and sandy. Food was good and an experience. Entertainment was way too loud and was simple.definitely a touristy event.

Better trips to book
Food is lovely with the wine surrounding is nice but the dancing is poor came on stage at 940 pm and was finished by 10pm the hostess Bella was really nice and friendly but disappointed with the trip waited long time In between the food courses 1 hour after having our starter

Folk show at Mosta
What a great night. From the moment you arrive you are welcomed, shown to your table and then just let the restaurant crew set the stage as the entertainment happens. Great food, great performances and the water or wine keeps flowing. Opportunity to dance once the Maltese dancers have finished. A night not to be missed.

A must do in Malta!
Absolutely incredible experience! The staff were amazing and so friendly, and the food was lovely. You also get a choice of options from the set menu so theres lots of choice. My partner had the set menu and I had the vegan menu so can cater to all dietary requirements. The dancing was lovely and the entertainment was great. Also the wine kept flowing!! I would highly recommend this trip of youre visiting Malta

If you want to waste your evening, definitely book!
Would leave 0 stars if I could. Still currently waiting for transport to pick us up for an experience that will now have already started. We have been waiting well over an hour outside of arranged pick up location. When asking the travel provider we were told there’s traffic. People have since been picked up for the same trip who booked through a different company, while we’re still waiting. Refund has been requested and evening has been wasted.
Response from the operator: We are sorry that the transfer did not arrive within the expected timeframe on the evening of your booking. While delays of this nature are extremely rare, we fully understand your frustration and regret that the delay affected your plans. We are particularly disappointed that you were unable to experience the excursion itself, which continues to receive excellent feedback from the vast majority of participants. Thank you for taking the time to share your comments.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with Transfers: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mellieha.
How much does Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with Transfers cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mellieha usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with 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 Mellieha is not rushed.
Is Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with Transfers worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 44 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mellieha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with Transfers?
+
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 Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with 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 Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with Transfers?
+
Around 15 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 Mellieha 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 Mellieha and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Maltese Traditional Dinner and Folklore Show with Transfers 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 Mellieha 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 Mellieha?
+
On Outty we rank every Mellieha experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gozo All Inclusive Chauffeured Tuk Tuk Day Tour - Blue Lagoon, Malta: Gozo Full Day Buggy Tour with lunch and Comino Stop, Gozo Quad Bike Day Tour - All-inclusive + Blue Lagoon. 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 Mellieha?
+
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 Mellieha?
+
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.
