Too expensive for what it was
The tour cost 110 euros each (about 400 NZD. For that we were taken to 3 temple locations, tickets were incl, but were left to find our way around with audio downloads. No guides at all. Our driver Kenneth was lovely but didn't have the level of knowledge to round out the info we got from the audio downloads. The temples were fantastic and we did get an extra visit overlooking blue grotto and because couldn't go to one place it was replaced with another. Kennet was great and we did have a great chat with him and he even stopped so we could get lunch. But this tour was too expensive for what was included. For comparison we did a full day tour today, with an excellent guide, substantial sit down lunch included with lots of stops and paid $280 NZD.

Visit to Malta Megalithic Temples
The temples we visited were great, however the service could have been much better. Our driver showed up 20 minutes late, blaming the traffic. She being o local, should have known how much time she needed for the drive. During driving she spoke constantly to someone people, drove carelessly, speeding and taking curves at high speed. Also, we had no guide or advice how to visit. If this was not included in this very expensive tour, maybe should be in the future. We don’t have the name of the driver, but the license plate vehicle was FLY 505.

Malta at its best
Kenneth was amazing. He not only took us to the Temples but drove through Malta to show us so many other sites that would be part of another tour. To top it off, we had tix to the Hypogeum and he did not want us to overpay on a taxi later that day so he took us there and back to hotel at no charge

Tour of the Ruins
Driver was very good, prompt on pick up/drop off, walked us through what to expect at each location. Gave a lot of information about the area. We got through two of the ruins early, (they’re next to each other) so as we had time at the end, he made sure we got to see some other sights. Driver was Duncan so would request him again

My sister and I really...
My sister and I really enjoyed our temple tour. Not only were we taken to all the main stops, but we also had several other fun stops along the way. Two of these stops included the Blue Grotto and St. Paul's Catacombs. Our driver, Kenneth (I apologize if I misspelled his name), was very kind and made the stops mentioned previously since he had free time at the end of the tour. I really recommend taking this tour. My sister wanted to add that she agrees that our tour guide was very nice and welcoming. She also recommends the tour.

Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Valletta.
How much does Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included) cost?
+
Prices start at $212 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 Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included) take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 12 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 Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included)?
+
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 Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included)?
+
Around 4 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Temples Tour (Pick-up, Transfer, Tickets & Drop-off Included) 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.
