5 Gold stars – Just do it! 😊 We thought we were just joining a history tour… instead, we were completely spellbound for over almost three hours. Giacomo has a way of turning Malta’s past into something alive, vivid, and impossible to forget. His passion for his island hits you immediately it practically radiates off him. If you want something genuine, powerful, and entertaining from start to finish, look no further. Skip the generic tours and go straight to Giacomo. Just book it , trust me you’ll thank yourself later

Great tour - fun, interesting and just something else. The participants are charmingly involved in the tour and the story - I had not experienced this before on classic city tours, but we had a lot of fun. Giacomo is a very sympathetic city guide with a lot of knowledge about Malta and especially Valletta. Highly recommended!

I absolutely loved this Malta-themed Valletta tour. The guide was animated, engaging, and made sure to involve every single one of us. He brought along fun props to bring his explanations to life, showed original photos and documents, and even involved us in small reenactments that made the stories come alive. I’ve taken other Valletta tours before, but this one stood out for its focus on corsairs and the guide’s excellent storytelling. Highly recommended!

I’ve honestly never had a more wonderful tour experience. Everything was thought out down to the smallest detail, and the tour was so captivating that my attention stayed on the guide the entire time. Giacomo is truly exceptional — his originality, talent, and professionalism shine through in every moment. He not only shares incredibly interesting information, but also adds just the right amount of humor and makes every guest feel included. After this tour, Malta reveals itself in a completely new way. I can wholeheartedly recommend the Valletta tour with Malta Themed Tours, and I’m already planning to join Giacomo for more tours next time!

We had previously engaged Giacomo for a Children’s Medieval Tour in Mdina during our Whiz Summer Outdoor Adventure, and the kids absolutely loved him. This time, however, it was the adults’ turn with no filters attached. 😊 Half the team had a vague idea of what was coming, the other half had none at all… but by the end, everyone agreed it was an unforgettable experience. Giacomo delivered a magical immersive event filled with humour, history, and those “only in Malta” breathtaking moments that stay with you long after the night ends. I can't recommend Malta Themed Tours enough for anyone looking for a fun, well-organised event that works beautifully for local organisations and international companies alike looking to give their team a genuine taste of Malta’s history, mischief, and character. Trust me, just book it

This tour was so much more than we expected. I have lived in Valletta for several years myself, but Giacomo, as the corsair Captain Alonso de Contreras, surprised us at every turn with his vividly told stories. He knew exactly how to engage all the participants. To be honest, it's quite an art these days to keep people captivated for two hours without them looking at their mobile phones. Congratulations, well done, Captain!

Really enjoyed this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. As it is a walking tour have good walking shoes. Although it was very informative the information given was in a casual way where the guide answered all queries in a jovial manner.

This is a tour that really brings history alive in all its colourful - and gory - details! Forget all the dusty names and dates, Giacomo will carry you back to a time when corsairing was Malta's most thriving industry, providing the funds that kept the Order of St John - and Malta - afloat! This is a great way to tour Valletta and become part of Malta's history in a lively, interactive manner, and nobody does it better than Giacomo!

Giacomo is one of the best tour guides Malta has to offer. He could speak about a pebble and still leave you thoroughly entertained, educated, and laughing. Normally I get bored with history but this is something magical. I can hand-on-heart say it’s one of the few experiences I recommend without hesitation. In fact, I genuinely believe I’d enjoy any tour with Giacomo, no matter the subject he takes about. That’s why I returned for another experience a year later, and I’m thrilled to say he’s still the same: charming, animated, and engaging in every sense of the word. Absolutely phenomenal, honestly, I’m convinced it cannot be topped. Bravo!
