my wife and I have been visiting Malta for the past 10years (excluding Covid 2020/21) The island has so much history and as the video states everyone seems to speak English, obviously this was due to the island being a crown colony from July 1813 to September 64. I have found the food to be extremely good, but you do have to shop around for the exceptional restaurants. There always seems to be colourful festivals on the go and when we tend to visit, June July or September, the whole island seems to be setting of huge fireworks form the villages all over the island. When visiting we have tended to stay at a boutique hotel in Valeta (Palazo Consiglia) which is in the old part of the city. The staff and management are fantastic and have always made us extremely welcome. I would highly recommend a visit to the island and would be surprised if it isn't the start of a lovely relationship.... especially if culture and history is your thing.
We've never had any problems in Malta, with anything, public transport is very reliable, buses to any part of the Island are frequent & run from very early in the morning to late at night, eating out is cheap, food is great, the people are very friendly, it has a rich history, with many beautiful buildings, & museums entry prices are very reasonable, St Johns Cathedral Valletta is breathtaking. We holiday in Malta 6 weeks a year, absolutely love it, Christmas in Malta is amazing, they really know how to celebrate.
I'm sorry but saying that Malta's public transport is reliable is a blatant lie. I've been to numerous countries and I gotta say in Malta public transport is by far the worst. Never on time, drivers often skip bus stops, overcrowded 😵.
@@Icheb82 Im going on our experience, we've been holidaying in Malta for the last 5 years & never had a problem, if one bus is full you can be sure anotjer will be along in a few minutes with more space. Try the public transport system in Greece that is a nightmare! By the way my parents didn't raise liars!
@@elaineduker.6355 totally agree with you. If you are time limited, then get a taxi, otherwise just chill out, and as Elaine says, wait for another one. Icheb82 sounds like one of those people who demands everything should be exactly as he/she wants it. If it's not, then obviously it is useless.
My grandparents were Maltese and moved to Australia in the 1930’s. 10 years ago my dad encouraged me to gain a dual citizenship between Malta and Australia which took 18 months, but I did it. In 3 weeks time I’ll finally be able to visit my country after 27 years. I’m so excited! Thanks for the video, it helped a lot!
wow! nice. it must be fascinating to discover your roots. hope you will enjoy it, however Malta has changed to worse since 2018 (overpopulation, terribly traffic, no-stop rising construction sites... Still it has nice place to see :) I live here since 7 years, came for 6 months, met my bf (Maltese) and stuck here :D Good luck!
I you want to visit the Hypogeum, you need to book at least 6 weeks in advance on line. May be even earlier in the summer. About 15 people are allowed in for each tour to protect the humidity levels . Worth a visit.
The best way to get around is ABSOLUTELY by bus. It's really expensive (I buy my monthly ticket back home for the same price as a malta 7 day ticket, it's brutal) but the buses come frequently, they are air conditioned and you don't have to worry about driving and parking. 10/10
My friend, be VERY PROUD of the 'Maltese 🇲🇹 ' connection. For it's size, it's the MOST HISTORIC ⚔ 🛡 place on earth and punches above it's weight in most things. Malta is where I was born & want to retire after 35 yrs in Oz 🇦🇺. SAHHA U SLIEM 🙏. Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ™
Good evening bro,how are you?I would like to go malta 🇲🇹. Could you help me about the issue bro.i am from Bangladesh 🇧🇩but living baharain. Thank you bro stay safe.
I worked in Malta for 4 months and been coming here on and off for over 10 years its definitely different vibes to anywhere else in Europe I have been always loved it out there
I visited Malta recently and I had a blast. Some things I wish I knew were transportation. I taught since Malta was a small island it wouldn't be a problem travelling by bus but public transport isn't convienent and neither the huge traffic jams. However, many places offered deliveries which made our stay more convienent. For example, I stayed in Sliema and wanted to try canna bis from aromatic buds malta and they offered same day delivery to my hotel. It would have been better if I stayed in 3 different accomodations to get around Malta easier.
Ahh I would love to go, My Nannu grew up in Gozo very poor, came to Australia in the 50s, worked very hard and made a great life for his family but sadly passed away in 2007 due to cancer. Would love to meet my Spiteri family over there.
Nice video . Best time to visit for climare and value for money in during may/June or Sept/October. Also not menined in the video I recommend a day trip to the smaller island of Gozo.
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
You can yes! You need a full driving license from your home country and some rentals ask to see an international driving license but mostly your countries license should be fine
Okey, seems like someone adding live pictures and reading from a guide book? Nothing wrong with that, a lot of these here on YT. So nice, and maybe add that you probably won´t need a car or taking taxi that much. Public buses work even when you arrive the airport. Also, you probably can get accomodation during low season cheaper than mentioned here. And yes, Mdina! Don´t miss that one, public bus goes here too. One of the most beautiful churches I´ve ever visited and a very charming village.
A few hard facts: The bus service in the summer is inadequate. You can wait 20 minutes in 35°C weather for a bus and when it finally comes it is cram-packed and won't even stop. A trip to a beach that took me 15 minutes on one day took an hour the very next... Food: can be good but it is now way overpriced. I can eat more cheaply and better in France than in Malta, as in France you can find fixed menus with an hors d'oeuvre, main dish and dessert for 17 Euros whereas in Malta no fixed menus exist and the same thing would cost you more like 25. And the quality will not be as good. The staff are poorly paid and if they are Maltese they have absolutely no sense of pride in their work. There is so much Construction going on that everywhere you go it is noisy, dusty and dirty. The Maltese throw garbage everywhere and altho they will spend a lot on the interior of their homes, a lot of the external façades look like ruins. The pollution level in Malta is the highest in all of Western Europe, so if you suffer from asthma or other respiratory problems you are warned. Be careful if you go to the restaurants along the waterfront. They will give you a dessert menu with no prices and charge you depending on what they think they can get away with. Avoid the white taxis - they are much more expensive. Use an app for the Bolt or Ecabs taxis...
Well, During summer it's true that the buses are overpacked. and next time choose a good resturant. All the resturants i've visited were cheap and good. And If you went 2020-2021 year, yes. there is many construction going on. We're upgrading the country.
The summer is too hot to be out in most of the time, and the over-building on the island has irretrievably spoiled it. Out of greed, it seems 'they' are busy letting the same thing happen in Gozo. Wake up Heritage Gozo! Take Action.
@@midnight_yt8788 'upgrading' = making it uglier.... Many of the new builds are hideous and far too high. Most Maltese agree but are afraid to speak out. Now Gozo is being spoilt and in both places even valuable farmland is being lost. SO short-sighted. I have a business that attracts tourists and many are complaining bitterly.
very informative you missed to mention smarter car rentals, eco transportation fun and cool way to visit some of the best attractions in malta. they can be lest from Valletta water front.
It really depends what you want to do. If you plan on sightseeing then temperature is comfortable for that. It can be warm enough for a swim occasionally but not often.
I was there 3 years ago for the second half of November. We had between 20 and 23°C during the daylight hours and slightly below 20° in the evenings, we absolutely loved it! Also not a single drop of rain during our entire stay. Went again in March 22 - wouldn't recommend that so much, max. temperatures of 20°, often cloudy, windy and the occasional rain, too.
"CTG", WHAT A PROFESSIONAL, EXCELLENT & INFORMATIVE TRAVEL VLOG👏👏 👏. PROUD TO BE MALTESE BORN & BRED 🇲🇹♥ . Several years away and still so much in love with my beautiful historic island ⚔ 🇲🇹 🛡 😍 🙏. Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ™
Great informative video.. But lacking in info when it comes to holidays via travel agencies such as TUI or thomas cook. I'm wanting a resort you see, so info on excursions would be great. First time booking a holiday abroad! I'm really nervous, I just want it to be nice
It never gets really "cold". Can be windy and sometimes a lot of rain. Still I enjoy it here. Extremely relaxing this time of the year. Yet you probably be surprised, actually a lot of cars and traffic jams here all year around.
Paceville is best avoided at night. Do not let your payment card out of your sight in restaurants etc. Carry your back pack at the front. Don't hire a car, bike, scooter etc. If you have to get a taxi get bolt app. If there's no price on something don't ask.
@@maltesephil thank you. I heard Malta dosent have fixed price on food according to the comments is this true. Also I'm thinking of doing group tours any you would recommend that are good affordable? Best place to stay in Malta?
Intrepid Travel offers some good tours, including a few cruises that visit Malta and Italy. For best areas, Sliema has plenty of hotels and restaurants to choose from and prices in Valletta and Gzira are fair too.
Do not drive in Malta and the sister island Gozo. Here everyone does what they want went it comes to driving. No police enforcement. It is scary driving in Malta. I know..
Malta is not a city, it’s an island.. 🙂 Although people do cycle here it is not great for cycling in general, too many cars, lorries etc. and virtually no cycle lanes. Plus in summer it’s way too hot.
Yes you can visit Malta in November but don’t expect to be able to swim too often and bring layers. Average highs are 20C but it can drop down to around 14C during the evenings
Firstly, my are family are Maltese and I've travelled there more times than I can remember, however, they are not friendly and often rude and very miserable. You'll often find that everyone thinks they're a model because many of the younger generations pay a small or large amount of their wages each month to join modelling agencies with no work, where they sadly think they've made in life, living in their own little bubble, hoping that one day they'll be noticed and they'll become an overnight sensation. DO NOT DRIVE IN MALTA ... it will become very apparent and very obvious while in Malta the vast amounts of roadside shrines and memorials for individuals that have sadly died due to car road accidents... Like hundreds and hundreds ... I counted 56 in the space of 15 minutes. No doubt you'll see at least one car accident or more during your stay. However, Malta is a beautiful island, you'll either love it or hate it ... it's a little like Marmite. It's dusty and dry and most of the buildings are partly derelict, due to taxes. It's steeped in culture on every corner. The beaches and the sea are amazing, and the nightlife is great and caters for all ages. Since joing the EU, Malta as lost it charm.. the vintage yellow buses have sadly gone, and have been replaced with more modern buses, that often don't fit on the narrow roads... even within the last 20 years, I have sadly noticed the huge diffrence in clear blue water that once surrounded this beautiful island ... sadly the amount of tourism each year is making malta unreconnisable, and has now become a very dirty Island with major issues with trash, rubbish. Malta only has a few beaches, that are often overcrowded, however, you'll always be within 15/20 to get to the coast... which is rocky, with shape rocks so make sure you take water shoes... and in many cases, the water is very deep but great for swimming. Use the beaches at all times if with small children or those that can't swim. If you plan on visiting, I highly recommend you stay in Selima ... this way, you'll have easy excess to local transport for visiting the entire Island... and you're within walking distance to the nightlife, the main capital Valletta either by Bus, water taxi, or walking if you wish. And you'll have plenty to do in the evenings... whatever you prefer, either chilled, relaxed or something a little wilder. Valletta, even the main city and as beautiful as it is ... isn't really like your average city... after sunset, it becomes very chilled and closes up. All the action is over in Selima, and St.Julians. [along the central north coast] Bars, clubs, restaurants, cafes... Valletta does have a few Restaurants.. however, it's worth a visit in the evening, both the day and night offer two completely different vibes... there really isn't much going on after sunset. Shop wise ... nothing, just tacky clothing shops and gift shops. - But a 'Most' if vistiting. Apart from the driving, the Island is totally safe. You will however find bars near the Ferry port in Valletta... but Clubs are a total NO NO... this is all in St. Julian. Both Selima and St. Julians have that city vibe, and anyone not knowing would assume this area is the Capital. - Shops,... designer labels and household brands [Zara, M&S, pull and bear, Diesel, etc] bars, Malls, restaurants, cafes, takeaways, beach bars and restaurants and this area stays open till early hours into the morning... and is very family-oriented. While St.Julians is geared more toward your younger generation and stays open until 4 or 5 am into the morning.
@@CreativeTravelGuide I went all over as I rented a car so visited Gozo and Comino. Also to Valletta, The Three Cities, Mdina and Victoria so pretty much everywhere and even did my own vlog.
The summer is too hot to be out in most of the time, and the over-building on the island has irretrievably spoiled it. Out of greed, it seems 'they' are busy letting the same thing happen in Gozo. Wake up Heritage Gozo! Take Action.
@@CreativeTravelGuide looks like Annabelle is happy making money on the Island but complains in every possible way. Looking at her comments….. its hot, over built, greed, expensive… bla bla bla. Well Im glad that most of the comments here are the opposite. Well done for this video. Very informative and professional.
Great video! Sadly a friend of ours didnt let us enjoy the video and wanted to explain us everything in detail by himself. We will come back to this video and watch it more careful :) Thank you a bunch!
Malta has degenerated into an overcrowded mess of tourists, almost 2,000,000 per year making a few traders and business types very rich but ruining the beaches and historic sites in the process.You must pay for a place at certain beaches in Malta and prices are doubled in summer. Both my visits to Malta were spoiled by overcrowding and rip off tourist prices. I was born in Malta but I shall not return.
Well, if you were born there you should have known better. I used to live there and i know for a fact that you could avoid the overcrowding had you opted for the south-end instead of Slima and the northern part of the Island. Or even historic cities such as Rabat , Naxxar and Qormi near the Airport.

Hi! I'm from bangladesh.im 28 year's old woman.im a single mother.i have two children 5 and 3.5 years old.Mam can I settle permanently Malta with my child?
I've lived in Malta since 2004. What's great about the country is we drive on the left (i.e. the correct side) and a little café in Valletta called Gambrinus. The bad side is, well everything else. You will NEVER find a bigger hive of scum and villainy. If you are going diving please take garbage bags with you and collect some litter.
Malta is also jam packed with people and cars and construction sites and litter. A big proportion of the locals are into money, while a bigger proportion of the population are pissed off at this situation. We need to breath here. We're suffocating, if you know what that means. For all those planning to visit, cancel, don't waste your money here. You could pray for us and send warm wishes instead. Thank you for your attention.
И аз установих това. Съчувствам ви, за съжаление тълпите от туристи от цял свят са примамени от легендарната история на острова. Те са съвременните варвари завладяващи света. Поздрав от България, и тук вече сме нападнати от тези тълпи хора.
my wife and I have been visiting Malta for the past 10years (excluding Covid 2020/21) The island has so much history and as the video states everyone seems to speak English, obviously this was due to the island being a crown colony from July 1813 to September 64. I have found the food to be extremely good, but you do have to shop around for the exceptional restaurants. There always seems to be colourful festivals on the go and when we tend to visit, June July or September, the whole island seems to be setting of huge fireworks form the villages all over the island. When visiting we have tended to stay at a boutique hotel in Valeta (Palazo Consiglia) which is in the old part of the city. The staff and management are fantastic and have always made us extremely welcome. I would highly recommend a visit to the island and would be surprised if it isn't the start of a lovely relationship.... especially if culture and history is your thing.
Where would you recommend? I want to see all the historical sights
We've never had any problems in Malta, with anything, public transport is very reliable, buses to any part of the Island are frequent & run from very early in the morning to late at night, eating out is cheap, food is great, the people are very friendly, it has a rich history, with many beautiful buildings, & museums entry prices are very reasonable, St Johns Cathedral Valletta is breathtaking.
We holiday in Malta 6 weeks a year, absolutely love it, Christmas in Malta is amazing, they really know how to celebrate.

It's not that warm in the Winter!
It ranges between 7-16°C. I'd say that's pretty warm compared to other countries. Yeah this year is an exception but it's still quite warm.
From October 2022 public transport in Malta will be free
Thanks for the update! That is so helpful for our watchers!

Such a pretty city!
Creative travel creative travel creative travel! Is the best she told many about malta

Amazing 😍😍😍
Any advice for solo female Travelers?
Safety, food, areas to stay in and avoids, scams.
Paceville is best avoided at night. Do not let your payment card out of your sight in restaurants etc. Carry your back pack at the front. Don't hire a car, bike, scooter etc. If you have to get a taxi get bolt app. If there's no price on something don't ask.
@@maltesephil thank you. I heard Malta dosent have fixed price on food according to the comments is this true. Also I'm thinking of doing group tours any you would recommend that are good affordable? Best place to stay in Malta?
Thanks for sharing your advise
Intrepid Travel offers some good tours, including a few cruises that visit Malta and Italy. For best areas, Sliema has plenty of hotels and restaurants to choose from and prices in Valletta and Gzira are fair too.
@@CreativeTravelGuide Thank you.
Is there snow in Malta
It very rarely snows in Malta!
taking bus (x4) from airport to Velletta is much better
I see a lack of trees there
Само камъни и море. Добре, че бях през зимата.
Do not drive in Malta and the sister island Gozo. Here everyone does what they want went it comes to driving. No police enforcement. It is scary driving in Malta. I know..
Thank you for the advice
Anthony; that' s right! Don't drive there! We spent €200 more because of the behaviour of malteses driving! Terrible!
Fabulous place.
A nice looking place.
I want to visit they how can I go about it
Where are you based? There are plenty of direct flights into Malta and so many affordable hostels too!
Is Malta a bicycle friendly city?
Malta is not a city, it’s an island.. 🙂
Although people do cycle here it is not great for cycling in general, too many cars, lorries etc. and virtually no cycle lanes. Plus in summer it’s way too hot.
I’m over 50% Maltese and look so Mediterranean but have never been !
Hope you get to go one day!
Is it ok to visit Malta in November
Yes you can visit Malta in November but don’t expect to be able to swim too often and bring layers. Average highs are 20C but it can drop down to around 14C during the evenings
Firstly, my are family are Maltese and I've travelled there more times than I can remember, however, they are not friendly and often rude and very miserable. You'll often find that everyone thinks they're a model because many of the younger generations pay a small or large amount of their wages each month to join modelling agencies with no work, where they sadly think they've made in life, living in their own little bubble, hoping that one day they'll be noticed and they'll become an overnight sensation.
DO NOT DRIVE IN MALTA ... it will become very apparent and very obvious while in Malta the vast amounts of roadside shrines and memorials for individuals that have sadly died due to car road accidents... Like hundreds and hundreds ... I counted 56 in the space of 15 minutes. No doubt you'll see at least one car accident or more during your stay.
However, Malta is a beautiful island, you'll either love it or hate it ... it's a little like Marmite. It's dusty and dry and most of the buildings are partly derelict, due to taxes. It's steeped in culture on every corner. The beaches and the sea are amazing, and the nightlife is great and caters for all ages.
Since joing the EU, Malta as lost it charm.. the vintage yellow buses have sadly gone, and have been replaced with more modern buses, that often don't fit on the narrow roads... even within the last 20 years, I have sadly noticed the huge diffrence in clear blue water that once surrounded this beautiful island ... sadly the amount of tourism each year is making malta unreconnisable, and has now become a very dirty Island with major issues with trash, rubbish.
Malta only has a few beaches, that are often overcrowded, however, you'll always be within 15/20 to get to the coast... which is rocky, with shape rocks so make sure you take water shoes... and in many cases, the water is very deep but great for swimming. Use the beaches at all times if with small children or those that can't swim.
If you plan on visiting, I highly recommend you stay in Selima ... this way, you'll have easy excess to local transport for visiting the entire Island... and you're within walking distance to the nightlife, the main capital Valletta either by Bus, water taxi, or walking if you wish. And you'll have plenty to do in the evenings... whatever you prefer, either chilled, relaxed or something a little wilder.
Valletta, even the main city and as beautiful as it is ... isn't really like your average city... after sunset, it becomes very chilled and closes up. All the action is over in Selima, and St.Julians. [along the central north coast] Bars, clubs, restaurants, cafes... Valletta does have a few Restaurants.. however, it's worth a visit in the evening, both the day and night offer two completely different vibes... there really isn't much going on after sunset. Shop wise ... nothing, just tacky clothing shops and gift shops. - But a 'Most' if vistiting. Apart from the driving, the Island is totally safe.
You will however find bars near the Ferry port in Valletta... but Clubs are a total NO NO... this is all in St. Julian. Both Selima and St. Julians have that city vibe, and anyone not knowing would assume this area is the Capital. - Shops,... designer labels and household brands [Zara, M&S, pull and bear, Diesel, etc] bars, Malls, restaurants, cafes, takeaways, beach bars and restaurants and this area stays open till early hours into the morning... and is very family-oriented. While St.Julians is geared more toward your younger generation and stays open until 4 or 5 am into the morning.
Thank you so much for all your suggestions and feedback! 😊
I bet you're fun at parties :)
Thank you for this fantastic guide. I'm going in a week!
I never knew malta could go up to 60° Celsius
Never knew it was so populated!
I was there in October last year and it's absolutely beautiful
It is such a beautiful place! Which area did you visit?
@@CreativeTravelGuide I went all over as I rented a car so visited Gozo and Comino. Also to Valletta, The Three Cities, Mdina and Victoria so pretty much everywhere and even did my own vlog.
Sound awesome, you are very welcome to move here, in our amazing island!😂
How was the weather in October? 😁
Hello
Hi
How are you? I will come to Malta.I live in Greece.I have a residence permit in Greece. What you say please tell me.
My grandmother was born in Malta and my relatives go back once every few years God I wish I could get out of California !!!!!
The summer is too hot to be out in most of the time, and the over-building on the island has irretrievably spoiled it. Out of greed, it seems 'they' are busy letting the same thing happen in Gozo. Wake up Heritage Gozo! Take Action.
Yes, definitely! Malta can be quite hot in the summer.
@@CreativeTravelGuide Errrr... that's an understatement! It's far too hot to be out in most of July and August.
We currently live in Thailand so maybe we are too used to the hotter temperatures lol. 😓
@@CreativeTravelGuide looks like Annabelle is happy making money on the Island but complains in every possible way. Looking at her comments….. its hot, over built, greed, expensive… bla bla bla. Well Im glad that most of the comments here are the opposite. Well done for this video. Very informative and professional.
Greedy people are everywhere even in your country
Great video! Sadly a friend of ours didnt let us enjoy the video and wanted to explain us everything in detail by himself. We will come back to this video and watch it more careful :) Thank you a bunch!
Egal
Haha hope you were abae to come back and watch it again! Happy travels! 😊
Now you can use uber in malta
The price of accommodation needs updating
Thank you, yes this video was from a while ago, we will share an updated version soon! Any suggestions?
Instead of e cabs use bolt or uber they are cheaper
Thank you for your suggestions!
Malta has degenerated into an overcrowded mess of tourists, almost 2,000,000 per year making a few traders and business types very rich but ruining the beaches and historic sites in the process.You must pay for a place at certain beaches in Malta and prices are doubled in summer. Both my visits to Malta were spoiled by overcrowding and rip off tourist prices. I was born in Malta but I shall not return.
Go choose somewhere else, the world is a big place!
Well, if you were born there you should have known better.
I used to live there and i know for a fact that you could avoid the overcrowding had you opted for the south-end instead of Slima and the northern part of the Island.
Or even historic cities such as Rabat , Naxxar and Qormi near the Airport.

Hello... pls. Help me, i am looking a job in malta. Driving position.
You can contact Ecabs and Bolt :)
Malta is beautiful country
u forgot the pastizzi.
Why recommend tourists rent cars if traffic is such an issue? It's a tiny island with public transportation.
Many prefer to rent cars and public transport isn’t always reliable or convenient between to cities
I been next to the wembley store
I wanna see malta
Cheaper in compare ???? You mean : Monte Carlo ? Hot: are you from the North Pole ? Are 30°C hot ? With all the wind they have ?
30°C is very hot yes, and i live in Belgium
I've lived in Malta since 2004. What's great about the country is we drive on the left (i.e. the correct side) and a little café in Valletta called Gambrinus. The bad side is, well everything else. You will NEVER find a bigger hive of scum and villainy. If you are going diving please take garbage bags with you and collect some litter.
Scams to look out for
Please don't slam the door on your way out.
I’m watching this video 1 hour before I go to the airport
Yay have a great trip!
Karen i am gonne cliff dive
i am going here on Vacation this summer (2023) and great video 🎉❤❤
Yay hope you had an awesome time!
I would expect more comments
Well thanks for yours 😎
@@CreativeTravelGuide (:
Beautiful Country!
Wow...
Bolt are more cheaper
Thanks for the feedback!
How much would it be for a bolt from the airport to gzira do you know that maybe?
Malta is also jam packed with people and cars and construction sites and litter. A big proportion of the locals are into money, while a bigger proportion of the population are pissed off at this situation. We need to breath here. We're suffocating, if you know what that means. For all those planning to visit, cancel, don't waste your money here. You could pray for us and send warm wishes instead. Thank you for your attention.
И аз установих това. Съчувствам ви, за съжаление тълпите от туристи от цял свят са примамени от легендарната история на острова. Те са съвременните варвари завладяващи света. Поздрав от България, и тук вече сме нападнати от тези тълпи хора.
