Cospicua (Bormla) Travel Guides (Updated October 2026)

Joseph is simply the best guide we've ever had. Smart, funny and deeply knowledgeable, he made every stop come alive. Always on time, always thoughtful, and his car was spotless. We couldn't recommend him more highly

We spent a great day exploring Malta with Joseph today. We feel we saw the majority of the island and visited the sites we really wanted to visit. With a private vehicle tour there was no waiting for everyone else to get back to a bus and we got to see the locations we wanted to see, not limited to where a tour bus goes. Joseph recommended an amazing place for lunch, food was absolutely amazing. Thank you Joseph for a wonderful day exploring Malta.

After a bit of a rough start due to our inability to get in touch with the tour company to advise them of a delay as a result of poor WiFi connection from the ship, we were finally able to connect with our driver/guide, Joseph who patiently waited for us to disembark. Joseph was a fantastic driver and guide. He allowed us to enjoy as much of Malta as possible during the time we had. Malta was amazing. We would totally go back!

Our tour guide was Peter Caruana, and tour operator was Joseph. Fantastic experience. Immaculate MB van, strong AC, and some perks like bottled water and umbrellas. Itinerary is flexible even if we gave Peter the liberty to suggest points of interest. We basically toured the entire island except the fishing villages, since it started to rain. We were able to avoid any tour bus crowd, and we were able to eat some hand peeled prickly pear. Malta is beautiful and you have to experience it without the crowds. Peter is very passionate about the history of the islands and as a bonus he showed us all the Hollywood sets for films made in Malta. 5 stars all around. Make sure you tip generously, as these guys go above and beyond normal expectations.

Our tour guide was outstanding with his knowledge of the many important places we visited during this day trip around the entire island of Malta. We stopped in several of the sites and were allowed to stay as long as we wanted or to opt out of staying long. Joseph knew the history of the island and reviewed the time periods of the various countries claiming control of the island. Joseph also knew many locals and was able to guide us with expertise through churches, neighborhoods, shopping areas, and eating establishments, in addition to the various viewing points of interest for photo opportunities and appreciation of the surrounding ocean and communities. He treated us with respect and and kindness, and was happy to answer our direct inquiries. I highly recommend this Cool Destinations tour to all tourists new to the island of Malta. It would be worth our time to take the same tour again, as there is so much to see and enjoy, along with the enjoyment of many locals that Joseph was familiar with.

We had a very enjoyable and informative day out with Joseph, I think we visited all the places of interest that we wanted to see....would highly recommend 😀

What an amazing day, couldn’t have imagined a better way to travel around to see the island. We messaged Joseph beforehand to request specific places to visit which he managed to include within the day. At the ta qali crafts village he arrange for a small glass workshop demonstration which was amazing to watch first hand. He was so kind and knowledgeable, provided us with plenty of water throughout the tour and gave us recommendations on were to go during stops. Would recommend this tour instead of a big coach tour as this feels a lot more personal and made to what you want to do.

We arrived at the Malta port at the end of a cruise at 8:00am. Joseph met us and took us (and our luggage) on a 6 hour tour of Malta, including a stop for lunch. He dropped us off at our hotel at 2pm. This worked out well to avoid “wasted time” waiting for our room to be available. Joseph was very informative and took us to all of the main sights on Malta. Highly recommended!

Excellent way to see the island. Six hours or so to see several sites. Joseph has a route planned but this can be adjusted. Friendly and very knowledgeable. Much better (and probably cheaper) for two people compared with cruise line coach tours

Joseph was on time and offered a great deal of information about Malta and the sites and neighborhoods we were visiting. He included several stops where we witnessed a glass blowing and stop for a wonderful lunch by the sea. The car was clean and comfortable and his driving skills were excellent. We would highly recommend joseph as an alternative to being crammed on a tour bus. The trip was customized to our interest in needs.

Joseph our guide was excellent. He had rich knowledge of Malta. Very courteous.

We had the private tour of Malta with Joseph today. Joseph was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We had a great time with him. He took us to a seafood place for lunch and it was very fresh and delicious. We saw so many places today in this private tour and some of them we wanted to come back. Joseph provided all the information to us and made sure we knew where to go. Highly recommend this tour with Joseph. We will book with him again when we come back to Malta.

Joseph our guide picked us up right on time and took us to all the places we had mapped out and even added a couple places. He saved us time in places because of his connections and was fun to talk and hangout with for the the day. We would highly recommend this tour if you want flexibility and want to see everything in a day. Thank you Joseph

Alex was our driver. He was very informative and a great tour explaining the history of Malta. He was friendly and made sure we had time to take photos, and have time for drinks and plenty of time exploring. He was courteous and allowed us to request places we wanted to see. A lovely kind person, I would strongly recommend this tour and ask for Alex.

Joseph is the best! He is very dependable, great communication and delightful in every way. If you are in Malta, book with Joseph and you will have an amazing day!

Joseph is a true gem of Malta! Incredibly friendly and full of energy! He shared so much knowledge that you wouldn't necessarily learn on a regular tour and he answered so many questions with so much patience! We enjoyed his company and learning about all facets of life in Malta. Thank you for helping us make some great memories!
