Our so called "half day private tour" was just OK but grossly overpriced at $150.00 for just 2 hours. Payment in full weeks before the tour was demanded repeatedly in a curt manner by their employee Christine. Hoping for the best we did so.
During the walking tour Matt spoke to us in a monologue for 2 hours. We only walked a few blocks so we were standing for long periods in the sun. Matt never suggested we sit on a nearby bench - even though I told him I have a bad knee, the reason for the private tour in the first place. Matt was nice enough but seemed overwhelmed and distracted. (He even said this to us).
The ONLY thing we requested was to get us to Upper Barrakka Gardens for the noon cannon firing, but Matt failed to do so. I contacted the company privately about my concerns as per their request but they didn't bother to respond.
My advice: While their free or cheaper groups tours may be OK, don't book a costly private tour with this company. Later tours we took were much better value.
