This is a good tour, just a little underwhelming for me. When I booked the tour, Inonly had the option for AX Seashells Resort pick up (there must have been some sort of glitch), annoyingly, this was a long way from where I was staying in St Julians. I had a little bad luck on my travels and had my phone stolen, so had limited access to Trip Advisor or emails, the tour was supposed to begin at noon and the time was changed to 2pm, I only discovered this when I couldn’t see anyone around to collect me. The advice of collection time changing was communicated at 3 or 4am that day - it isn’t the providers fault that I didn’t see the message but frustrating that it was changed on the day like this.
The tour started in San Anton Gardens which were very pretty, we were then dropped to Mdina and walked to the catacombs. The catacombs are small and would be just as easy to see without booking a tour, they’re a ten minutes or so walk from Mdina’s city gate.our tour guide was a really lovely lady and clearly very knowledgable; just not overly engaging.
The tour is good value for £30 but not one that I would highly recommend.
