I've lived in malta in 2018 and I'm thinking of returning to the island. However I'm curious about the mass illegal immigration that's happening in Europe,as to how it's affecting Malta. Do you have any reliable info on the subject? Thanks.
Hi Alex, I’m a British citizen originally from west Africa and been living in the Uk for over 50 years. I visit Malta & Gozo every year for the last 22 years and hope to one day retire there 😊 (but I fear Brexit may prevent me from doing so) …Keep up your good work publicising all things good about Malta ,your videos are brilliant 👍🏾
Alex I love you with all my heart! your videos are fantastic, I remember when I went to study English to Malta ❤ that island is Wonderful 😊 greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴
Thank you Alex for taking me on the Ferry with you..🥰 We did this return ride twice when we stayed in Sliema three weeks ago. It’s a fantastic experience. So much better than taking the bus, which we did one day. I miss Malta so much. I’m already nagging Nick to come back.. I will just follow you everywhere in the meantime so I feel like I am there.. 🇲🇹❤️
EXCELLENT VIDEO - GOOD ENOUGH TO MAKE ONE HOMESICK 🛳️😅. Beautiful clean ferry and terminals plus an amazing scenic crossing. Love the little chubby doggy in the pushchair 🐶 🤗. Careful Alex 😇🙏(5:40) 😅😂🤣. THANKS Alex 🛳️🎥👋 Cheers 👍🇲🇹❤️🇪🇺™️
Great video just wish it wasn't mirrored when you're using the front camera. Very trippy with all the text and seeing landmarks seemingly in the opposite direction
Thank you for this video and the advertising your giving to my home country. wonderful video, Mind you, Manuel Island is open to the Public until 8pm not 6pm. Regards
Thank you Robert, i will double check the timing, as i was on Manoel last week and the security said 18:00, it could be a wrong info or it could be a winter schedule. As i remember last summer i was at Manoel past 19:00 for sunset
Thanks Alex super helpful video I will have to get me a personalized Ta linja card when I get there as the card I still have is a 7 day explorer this was Good to know Thank you so much always .😘
If I was visiting Malta and Valletta in particular, I’d be far more interested in seeing Malta’s rich history and culture, especially it’s beautiful churches - I’ve read some articles about the history of the Maltese Cross and it is fascinating reading ❤❤❤❤
I guess the ferry still worth it, because you avoid a longer and bumpy bus ride with mostly full of people, and on the ferry you even feel more special! :D
Thank you for this information. How much does a Tallinja card cost? I looked on the official website of Malta Public Transport but there were no updated prices. Do you pay per month, or only once at purchase? How long is it valid?
Tallinja card is free for those who are residents or citizens of malta. Just letting you know: To apply for a Tallinja Card, a customer must provide personal details which include an identification document number (Identity Card, Residence Document or Driving License in the case of a Maltese resident, or passport or other international identity number in the case of a non-Maltese resident), and proof of identity together with the name, surname, home telephone number, mobile phone number and email address.
Hey Alex, your camera work is so smooth! Do you use a phone or something else? As I am partially sighted you really help me prepare for my Malta trips, thank you for all your videos ❤️❤❤❤
Why am I not surprised that there is no “Departure” & “Arrival’s” signage at the Sliema Ferry terminal….. after all those years of delays surely you would think that it was thought thru such important information hahaha
4:59 Alex here is the hint to the left is where the people leave the ferry to the right thats where people are entering i know this your frist time im just giveing a hint since i been from Bormla a lot
While applying for the card why at bottom it asks to tick student for 3 months sponsorship? How can I apply from India as I got a job in malta and in June I will be there
Hi, i just registered for the talinja card but i think I've misunderstood you as it costs 33 euros plus postage and you have to add credit. I thought you said it was free?
Hi Alex - this ferry would be great for passengers transferring up the River Liffey at high tide for passengers and their luggage arriving off the Irish Ferries and Stena Ferries from Holyhead at Dublin Port up to Capel St Bridge - On the River Thames in London they have a similar ferry or Water Taxi, although I’m not sure if they have the same for the River Mersey in Liverpool or for the Manchester Ship Canal at Salford Quays - I’ve already made the suggestion to Transport for Ireland about this - by the way, does that card have to be topped up with credit when you buy it?
Interesting, but not this ferry, maybe the fast one that goes to Sicily. No need of top up, its €25 registration fee to get it and its valid for lifetime
@@AlexinMalta I’ve been on the Irish Ferries Dublin Swift fast ferry between Holyhead and Dublin and the ride is very rough, even on calm seas across the Irish Sea from Holyhead to Dublin - and the Dublin Swift gets cancelled very often in rough weather, as the Irish Sea can be very unpredictable
Hello Alex, i will be travelling in Malta in September. Can i apply for talinja card and send it here in Spain even if i will be only staying there for 8 days?
1:08 i mean its kinda worthless to go from Sliema to Comino like i took around 5 hours and 60 mins to be in Comino until the ferry and then when we came here in Sliema I found it so worthless since you go from Sliema then to stop to Bugibba then to Gozo and finally to Comino so i not recommend you to fo with this just go with a ferry from Cirkewwa to Comino since there it will take mins
Prepare for our trip to Malta with my online guide book, available here: alexinmalta.com/shop/
I have it I love it, although I live in Malta I learned something new from your book

I like the new ferry terminal for the shade whilst waiting.
How much I’ve enjoyed seeing this
Glad you enjoyed it! It was a beautiful day.
Great vlog I had my marriage blessed at that church over 20 Years ago, I remember lands end being flats
Malta is always stunning.

Awwww, love the birdy that swooped by your cam, aweseome ...
Браво ,всичките ви видеа са прекрасни.
You are the best. Educated, smart, thigs well done and really interesting content not stupid things to attract followers
Great video just wish it wasn't mirrored when you're using the front camera. Very trippy with all the text and seeing landmarks seemingly in the opposite direction
I didnt pay attention to that as i thought my settings were already set not to be mirrored. Will make sure on the next one to be the right way
Great videos mate. You're a natural. keep up the good work. How about a walk through the gentlemen's clubs? Any recommendations?
Currently living in Ireland and planning to move to Malta but the end of the year!!
Do your research!
I wish you good luck 🫶🏼
😂 worst decision of your life !!!
Good Luck. 😉
Great info Alex Viva Malta 🇲🇹

Pleasure is mine to share this ❤️
Great video, Alex. Very cool 😎 👌
Sure, use your tallinja card on the bus. That should be interesting.
If I was visiting Malta and Valletta in particular, I’d be far more interested in seeing Malta’s rich history and culture, especially it’s beautiful churches - I’ve read some articles about the history of the Maltese Cross and it is fascinating reading ❤❤❤❤
Ofcourse :)
Hello Alex, nice video. My rich cousins own the ferry 😁. The new terminal looks like a good improvement. Greetings from Ireland.
So fantastic needed this
❤️
I guess the ferry still worth it, because you avoid a longer and bumpy bus ride with mostly full of people, and on the ferry you even feel more special! :D
lovely, nice to know, thanks Alex. I'm back to cold England now, I miss Malta already hehehe :-) God bless x
Im glad you enjoyed Malta. This island is always a good idea, let me know if you plan to visit Again :)
Good I did not know that with the Card it is free.
Thank you for this information. How much does a Tallinja card cost? I looked on the official website of Malta Public Transport but there were no updated prices. Do you pay per month, or only once at purchase? How long is it valid?
Thanks for sharing this information 👍🏻
I hope they have one going to birgu from sliema too. Theres an exact same port there
3:46 In Bormla that station was closed since you have to go and buy a ticket from inside of ferry

In February it was free
Hi Alex can you do a video on which buses use the tallinja travel card you used please
Hey Alex, your camera work is so smooth! Do you use a phone or something else? As I am partially sighted you really help me prepare for my Malta trips, thank you for all your videos ❤️❤❤❤
Hey hey ❤️i use iPhone 14pro max in 4K with 60 frames :)
Great informative video ❤ are the ferries included on the weekly Taljina card ?
Yes they are! Sliema to Valletta & Valletta to 3 cities (and back ofcourse😅)
I don't think the Tallinja Explore cards get free ferries, just buses. Free ferry is only for personalised Tallinja cards
Why am I not surprised that there is no “Departure” & “Arrival’s” signage at the Sliema Ferry terminal….. after all those years of delays surely you would think that it was thought thru such important information hahaha
Nothing in Malta is “thought through” the place is a mess…
They’re dumb as F C K so what did you expect
How beautiful
❤️
Thanks for yet another great video, Alex!! I have one question, though. Are there any plans to build a new ferry terminal on the Valletta side?
Well done Alex, still doing a good job with all up dated information, good luck .
Oh, that is why your phone died in Marsaskala…😊 And- yes we said we want to see “atmosphere” from 🚌, so use that card there also. 😅and- save money 😅
Hi Alex can you do a video on using the buses please
Great weather like in Morro Jable now)
Love from India ❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤️ love to India from Malta
4:59 Alex here is the hint to the left is where the people leave the ferry to the right thats where people are entering i know this your frist time im just giveing a hint since i been from Bormla a lot
Nice video!! where is better to stay? Valletta or Silema? Thank you!
How you can come back at night? for example after 12 or 1am - many thanks
good stuff
7:07 Its not bad like there are guardrails and plus that will help you
Hi, can once transport motorbikes or cars on the ferry?
While applying for the card why at bottom it asks to tick student for 3 months sponsorship?
How can I apply from India as I got a job in malta and in June I will be there
11:31 nah it looks like a gym since you go for hike in a hilly Valletta and plus you’ll lose the breath easily since it’s because of the hills
9:44 and plus behind from hotel is that there is a office of Planet 365
Hi, i just registered for the talinja card but i think I've misunderstood you as it costs 33 euros plus postage and you have to add credit. I thought you said it was free?
33 🤯it was Free till end of February, and 25e from March. Last year it was 19.50, hmmmm
Last year 21
Hi Alex, is the ferry also free with the tallinja card explore?
Best regards

Super❤
6:15 Sadly you can’t use it on TD buses since it will cost and take your money away from your Tallinja like it cost I believe 2.30€
Zdravo Alex
Pošto je zelena karta?
€25, isplati se ako si duze na Malti i koristis autobuse i ferry
@@AlexinMalta hvala ti za info.
12 dana , bice mi dovoljno.
And it only took them four years to build!
8:35 meaning its a Party boat
💚
15:03 Not TD like TD is not free
Yes
13:34 Can pls do a ferry ride to Three Cities like I think you gonna love that ferry then to Sliema (i think)
14:29 why did you put upside think like when i see this it gives me headache (since idk where does it go and such)
It's hard to believe... In Malta, they filled the sea and gained land.
7:36 yeah this is one is kinda annoying but what can you do it’s passengers
1:46 oh really i thought you hated going with a bus oh and speaking about that maybe you should do a live stream on Buses not just but also ferry
Around 3000 Pakistani lives or reside in Malta
1:08 i mean its kinda worthless to go from Sliema to Comino like i took around 5 hours and 60 mins to be in Comino until the ferry and then when we came here in Sliema I found it so worthless since you go from Sliema then to stop to Bugibba then to Gozo and finally to Comino so i not recommend you to fo with this just go with a ferry from Cirkewwa to Comino since there it will take mins
3:34 Honestly this station looks similar to Bormla’s station meaning that im not kind of excited of this station im sorry
Use bus next time 😂
