View on Google MapsAn agent booked this trip for me which caused some issues. They chose a pickup point far from where I was staying. I saw Robert Abrigo & Sons agent at the airport and was able to change the pickup point to close to where I was staying. However, that caused another issue and I missed the trip. I called the company to see what could be done and the MOST RUDE lady answered. She screamed at me, interrupted me multiple times (and then screamed some more if I interrupted her). Unfortunately they would not re-book the tour (I could have still joined, I called about 15 minutes after missing the pick up) but they would not work with me. It was very sad, and I think the company caters to cruise passengers as they only do trips on certain days so if you miss...too bad. The worst was the RUDE agent, and this company should be ashamed to have such a person working for them. I would NOT recommend this company.
The pickup for the tour was prompt. We were driven to a different location and divided in groups according to language. We started at the Blue Grotto due to the weather. After arriving we had to buy tickets (which would be nice to have included ahead of time) and stand in line for the boat ride. Beautiful view, water, and well worth the ride. Luckily, we were one of the last groups to go due to the wind and weather. Next we went to Qrendi. We didn't spend much time there due to the delay in leaving Blue Grotto. Personally, I could've skipped it and spent more time at Marsaxlokk. We had about 80 minutes to explore the area and market which didn't feel rushed. Rita was a good guide and full of information. This ran longer due to delays, but I was back at my hotel around 3pm so not too bad.
I did this trip in January and it was exactly what it said on the tin. There was plenty of time at each stop. We didn’t get to go in a boat at the grotto, but this didn’t matter. The only thing that let it down (that wasn’t the tours fault) was grown adults arguing because they didn’t sit back in the same seat as when they got off at the first stop. Utterly embarrassing. The market does get very busy, so be warned (I went out of season and it was HEAVING!)
A great guided tour with a very knowledgeable guide (Ian) great stops. Remember to bring cash for the blue grotto. The guide kept us informed all through the trip and ensured we all stayed together.
Great half day tour of the market and fishing village.Blue grotto was great but very quick boat trip.
The guide was great. Lots of great information. The village is just a tourist trap. The Blue Grato was beautiful and felt very rushed at just 20 minutes.
