Hi all,
Let's get the forum going again with lots of new reviews and posts! I'm just back from a lovely week in Malta, my first JY trip since 2018 and my 19th overall. It was most enjoyable with the itinerary showing us the best of the island. The weather was very good for the time of year, with just two wet mornings (boy how it rained!). Malta is now very built-up, with the east of the island essentially one sprawling city. The west is wilder and largely undeveloped. We saw some stunning churches and the views at the Blue Grotto and on Gozo were lovely. The hotel is adequate and simple with a very good breakfast (excellent hot counter with proper sausages and bacon!!). There are plenty of very good restaurants nearby for dinner and I didn't have a single disappointing meal. The itinerary wasn't too hectic and made for a reasonably relaxing week. The group were brilliant, one of the best I've encountered; very friendly and there were no cliques at all. Sue McCullough, our tour manager, was excellent and dealt with everything with great patience and good humour. The local guide was very knowledgeable. I wouldn't go back to Malta but I'm glad I went!
