Ben's 3 Cities Free Walking Tour

Duration: 2h
Languages: English
Guru: Ben
Quality Verified Registered on November 10, 2022

Hi, my name is Ben. I previously used to work in IT, but now I'm a full-time Tourist Guide! I'm a licensed professional tourist guide and I have guided thousands of people all around Malta. I'm also 100% Maltese, born & raised here. I love meeting new people and showing them around my country of Malta. I usually adapt to the audience, but I usually intersperse history, current Maltese culture, and what the Maltese people think & feel, together with recommendations for places to eat & drink (usually my favourite spots ;) ).

Tour description

On my tour we talk about HISTORY, CULTURE (current day), POLITICS (short section), with examples and humour :)

If you are going to be LATE, please message me on WhatsApp (I will share the number once you book) BEFORE the tour starts, so I can share the live location. Phoning or messaging me after the tour starts might not work. Messaging me on the app will not work, so please message me on WhatsApp before the tour starts.

If you want to cancel, no need to apologize :), just cancel as soon as you are able to. You can cancel using the email confirming your booking (inbox/spam folder). 

I look forward to having a great tour with you! :)

Other Practical information:

- I accept cash, Revolut, or PayPal as forms of payment.

- If you're travelling to Mdina before the tour starts please take into account that traffic and delays are common, so please consider leaving around an hour before the starting time. I've had many guests who were confident they could make it on time miss a bus, or get stuck in traffic.

- Please do not book children/teens < 18 years old. They can join, but please do not book them, as they take up slots that can be used by adults.

- Children are welcome provided they do not disturb the other guests or the tour. Either by running around or by being noisy. This would be very distracting and disrespectful to the other guests and to the guide.

- It's true, it's marketed as a "Free Tour" but please consider the amount of effort the guide puts in, together with the quality of information, and the quality of the tour itself. A recommended donation amount is €10 per person. There are those who give more, which is VERY much appreciated and helps with the sustainability of the tour. Of course the amount is totally up to you to decide.

- This tour involves steps, so might not be wheelchair accessible. Though I have managed with alternate routes and prams.

- Unfortunately the ground, road, walkways that we use in the tour can be slippery, uneven, have holes and/or obstacles. Please watch your step during the tour. 

- Also unfortunately, cars in Malta might use the same road as we do, and as you might have noticed they drive quite fast in areas where people walk. So please take note of this and be aware.

Liability exclusion: By booking and/or participating in the tour, the participants agree, understand and acknowledge that the tour leader/operator will not be held liable for any damages (whether direct, indirect, incidental or consequential), injuries (including personal injury), loss, accident, delay or inconvenience incurred  to or by the persons participating in the tour and/or their property. The persons participating in the tour further agree to release the tour guide (and tour operator) from any liability, claims or actions arising from or related to the participation in the tour.
