Testimonials

I chose to visit Malta because of the warm weather in April, I had no idea the magnificent experience that this would be! All arrangements were made through Exclusively Malta, the process was so simple and efficient. Since the moment we arrived until our departure every detail was taken care of. The choice of hotels was lovely, the restaurants were hand picked and served very different food and the tours were exceptional! We enjoyed aspects of Malta that are only known to the locals! Our driver was wonderful, he took care of us in every possible way, courteous and respectful! Our guide was so knowledgeable and a warm and caring person! My thanks for planning this memorable vacation!

I just had a long call with KB….who you may recall was a client of mine that you hosted in Malta. Anyhow….we realized that he had not really given me a full report from his Malta trip so he did that just now. Simply put, he was blown away. It has totally re-wired the way he thinks about travel. We will for sure get him back for another trip and ideally he will send some of his friends my way so that we can get Exclusively Malta to give them the royal treatment.

You are the very best travel hosts EVER! Thank you for 4 incredible days and service that went above and beyond my very high expectations. Available as a reference at: [email protected]

You are absolutely my go-to source for any booking to Malta. You and company always seem to go the extra step (without being prodded) to be sure I have the information I need for my clients. Your care for them on site has been thoughtful. Clients come home raving about your guides. I wish more tour operators were as thorough and well-informed as Exclusively Malta.

The itinerary offered real insight into the country and its history. We had a great walking tour of Valletta and had a very special tour of a private Palazzo with the descendants of the original family which was outstanding. Highly recommend.

Jason listened carefully to our requests (wine tasting, some hiking, boutique hotel in the center of Valletta, food experiences and one on one encounters) and incorporated them all and provided us with a great and flexible guide and driver.

Jason and Damon were fantastic from our initial conversation until the tour ended. Jason and Damon were incredibly responsive to all concerns and planned several exclusive events for us which were memorable.

To see as much as we did, you need a well planned, well executed schedule. Each day in Malta, we had private visits, but our favorites were the private after-hours visit to St. Johns Cathedral, the Chef Shopping, Cooking & Lunch on Gozo, the Palazzo Falzon in Mdina with Curator and a private palazzo. Unbelievably, there were still several “experiences” that couldn’t be arranged due to our timing. We’ll have to go back!

Malta is amazing and, for those of you who’ve never been here, consider putting it high on your list.

Malta was marvelous, and we thoroughly enjoyed all of it – most of which we’re pretty sure we got to see. The itinerary couldn’t have been better for us. In short, we had a great time, and we thank you most sincerely for having arranged it for us.

My whole group were delighted with every aspect of the tour along with all the little extra's you provided which were always a lovely addition. You have won me and all my fellow traveler's over with your over the top personal service and your attention to detail. Sincerely

I had the chance to personally use Exclusively Malta's services in October, and I can tell you that they are top notch. I would highly recommend Malta as a destination, but even if you have passengers who are only doing a one day shore excursion, this is the company to use. Do not let your clients see only Valletta – have Damon and Jason to get them to Rabat, a visit with an artisan gilder, see Mdina and St. John’s! Your clients will thank you – we were gone 25 days and this experience was one of our top three!

Damon is very hands on, and he has many local connections. Extremely personal and service oriented. We did a lot in 4 days! But it was not overwhelming, the people were very friendly, English is the official language, and it is quite safe. They say that the island is small and there is no place for criminals to hide.

My client just spent a half hour telling my how wonderful their experience was - how well planned it was and what a great time she had. What most impressed her was the little surprises, the table prepared for them at the Canons with drinks and hors d'oeuvres, the special attention, all unexpected. In the countryside, the personal visits with locals were wonderful. My recommendations re pacing were followed to a T. Actually, her impression was that everyone was listening to what her needs were and was happy to fulfill the smallest request. All the positive feedback is really significant, but they are very experienced travelers. She knows what's good and what is not. No negatives, only positives.

We are 50/50 about recommending Malta since its such a great place and we wouldn't want it to become too popular.

Hey guys! Wanted to thank you all again for taking the time to plan such a spectacular family trip to Malta for all of us. It means so much that you put so much time and thought into what we do every day + who we interact with — the effort really shows and makes the trips utterly seamless. Thanks again for all your hard work, we appreciate it more than you can imagine! Thank you and you will be our Malta people forever !!

Fantastic tour of Malta with Joseph our guide and Adrian our driver. Experienced Malta to the fullest. Great restaurant suggestions. Thank you so much.

Every door opens for our clients. It's always timely and exciting to work with Exclusively Malta. Like us luxury travel advisors, our clients are well traveled and a lot of the world is too familiar. There are few places that give me butterflies when I am there because it is so other worldly. Malta is one of those places. Malta is so incredible - out of this wold and surreal.

My group has just returned from their cruise, and they were thrilled with the tour that your guide gave them. They loved Malta, I am sure in no small part because of the wonderful experience they had. Thanks so much for creating this tour for them, and for executing it so wonderfully.

Every single day worked out like a Maltese clock! It was a wonderful trip, and I hope that more people will choose to visit Malta. If interested travelers ask us, we'll recommend your expertise.

Thank you so very much for all your attention to my clients. I know you made their trip extra special. I truly hope to have more guests come your way!

Thank you for the updates. I love that you take the time to let me know how the clients’ experience was handled and the feedback.

We all thoroughly enjoyed the day in Malta Your guide was lovely and very accommodating. Thanks for your quick follow up. Very impressive. I hope to send lots of business your way.

Jason and Damon’s experience in the industry is second to none and their "Customer First" philosophy is so welcoming. I hope to be doing business with them for a long time.

This is Malta

Located in the heart of the Mediterranean, the Maltese Islands are an oasis that provides a very unique mix of culture, history, nature and relaxation. With a local population of just over 460,000 and a land mass of 122 square miles, you can see and do more within short driving distances. Some seek out Malta for its rich UNESCO heritage, World War II history or the Knights of St. John storyline. Whatever the reason for visiting, our islands will leave you speechless. #braggingrights

Let us craft the perfect experience for you – taking your personality and desires into consideration. We stand out as the best host in the Maltese Islands because of our dedication to attention and personalization.

Malta Tours & Vacations

Floating smack-bang and isolated in the middle of the shimmering Mediterranean Sea, minuscule Malta trots along to a charmingly laid back pace.

A consortium of 3 bite-sized islands containing countless blue water lagoons backed by stunning surrounds, the country presents a beguiling mish-mash of Arabic and European languages, architecture, cuisine and traditions - the legacy of having been alternately raided, invaded, or occupied by virtually every Western power to have attained conquering capacities over the past 2,000 years. Little wonder then that the locals are so versed in sharing their island’s spoils with the latest foreign hordes to reach their shores.

Best time to visit malta.

Malta’s summer season - stretching from April right through to October - is the best time to visit, with daytime temperatures generally sitting in the high 60s that are tempered by sea breezes along the coast.

Over July and August, the temperatures can climb above 80 degrees F - perfect for some, unpleasant for others.

From November to March, temperatures range around 60 degrees F and it can be quite rainy in December and January.

Geography and environment

Malta’s largest island (which goes by the same name) consists of low-lying, hilly and mostly arid terrain covered by terraced fields and bounded by a rugged coastline of coves, harbors and beaches.

Gozo is noticeably greener and more densely vegetated, with craggy cliffs and flat-topped hills.

Top 5 movies shot in Malta

1. gladiator.

Fans of Ridley Scott’s historical Roman epic, charting the rise, fall, rise and death of wronged General Maximus Decimus Meridius (played by Russell Crowe) will be interested to hear that the scenes of Ancient Rome and the Colosseum were actually shot in neither. Instead, a million dollar replica of the city and its illustrious fighting stadium were constructed and filmed in Malta’s Fort Ricasoli. The film, which dominated the 73rd Academy Awards, included some brilliant scenes of Crowe doing somersaults while battling tigers.

Starring Brad Pitt and Australia’s own Eric Bana, Wolfgang Peterson’s loose adaptation of Homer’s Iliad was shot almost exclusively in Malta’s Mellieha, Fort Ricasoli and on Malta’s sister island Comino. An epic tale of wanton murder and betrayal, fueled by an illicit royal affair, the film was purportedly produced on a budget of approximately $175 million – making it one of the most expensive ever made. In a damning demonstration that people learn nothing from history, the Turkish town of Canakkale accepted Pitt's gifting of the giant Trojan Horse maquette used in the film.

3. World War Z

When a zombie outbreak threatens the planet’s very existence, United Nations worker Gerry Lane (played by Malta-crazy Brad Pitt) decides to step in. Citing inspiration from All the President’s Men and The Bourne Identity, this 'politically-penetrating apocalyptic horror film' featured scenes shot in Malta’s Valletta, Cospicua, Vittoriosa and Senglea.

4. Orca - The Killer Whale

A captivating piece of 70s filmmaking wizardry, Orca: The Killer Whale tells the tale of a great white shark hunt gone horribly wrong. Captain Nolan, a salty Irish seadog looking to return to the country of his birth, accepts one last job to catch a great white shark for a local aquarium. But just as he is about to catch the shark, which is about to kill a canoeing scientist named Ken, a killer whale appears out of nowhere and kills the shark. Infuriated, Nolan harpoons the whale, but hits the wrong one – the whale's pregnant whale girlfriend! Understandably irate, the canny Orca bachelor now sets out laying waste to the entire fishing village; sinking boats, exploding the community’s fuel reserves, and chomping Nolan’s friend’s leg off when he attacks their seaside dwelling. The final, nail-biting scene, in which the Killer Orca lures Nolan out to the remote polar region of Labrador and sinks his boat by knocking an iceberg into it, was fabricated and filmed off the coast of Malta.

5. Swept Away

Popularly lauded as one of the worst movies ever made, Guy Ritchie’s Swept Away – starring his then-wife Madonna – marked the director’s filmmaking nadir. A right box-office disaster, the film scooped the 2002 Raspberry Awards and was the only movie ever to have won both Worst Picture and Worst remake or Sequel. What the film does have going for it is the setting, with Blue Lagoon, Vittoriosa and Mdina all featuring prominently as the stunning backdrop to the mismatched couple’s shipwrecked shenanigans.

What is the internet access like in Malta?

Internet access is good in Malta and internet cafes are easily found in most cities and major towns. Some hotels will also have wireless.

Western-style, flushable toilets are the standard in Malta. Expect to pay a small fee when using public toilets in some parts of the country.

Can I drink the water in Malta?

The water is safe to drink in Malta, though it may taste a little brackish as it’s desalinated sea water. For environmental reasons, try to use a refillable water bottle rather than buying bottled water

Are credit cards accepted widely in Malta?

All major credit cards are widely accepted by stores in Malta. Smaller cafes and shops may not accept credit cards, so ensure you carry enough cash to cover small purchases.

What is ATM access like in Malta?

ATMs are readily available throughout Malta.

Do I need to purchase travel insurance before traveling?

Absolutely. All passengers traveling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip.

Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.

Orange is an outbound travel business which with its sister companies is the only pan-European of B2B cruise distributor.

We are pro-active and highly success-driven people backed by a financially sound structure. Our primary goal is to continue to expand the cruise market together with some of the world’s major cruise lines which entrust us to distribute their products on either exclusive or partly-exclusive basis in the countries we operate in.

Our customers – 8,000 travel companies, range from small, privately-owned travel agencies, to the largest travel groups in Europe. Our geographic area of distribution is linguistically and culturally hugely diverse and runs across places like Germany, Tunisia, Cyprus, and Kazakhstan. Each market has its own complexities and that is why to give truly meaningful support to our travel partners, we often employ people that originate from such countries and can speak the native language.

Learn more about Orange by visiting this website, and about our main sister brand, Executive Cruises executivecruises.eu

Successful operations in four different countries, technically make Orange an international company. A tiny business by global standards, Orange can still pride itself of being the top-selling outfit for selling cruises in the entire South East Europe, Middle East and Africa regions.

Orange is backed by the SMS Group - since the 1860s run by the same Mifsud family. This offers consistency and reliability, both in Malta where SMS is a household name, and abroad where the company is the world’s second largest cruise passenger handler.

Directly involved in travel agency business as from 1947, Orange has unparalleled experience which coupled with longstanding partnerships in Malta and abroad give it a unique advantage. The Group employs a dynamic, multi-national team of people that enable it to constantly stay ahead of its competition in all the market segments it operates in.

To strengthen their mutual international position and open new opportunities for growth, in 2011 Malta-based SMS Group Ltd and Mondial Investments Ltd merged their main outbound travel interests thus forming Orange Travel Group Ltd. “Orange” was chosen because this name would make it easier to grow the brand abroad since the word is common the various vocabularies of many languages. On the other hand it was decided to brand Orange’s Malta retail business as “SMSMondial” since both names are extremely well-known locally.
