Maltese History and Tours BORING? – NOT on our Watch!

Has history ever felt as stale as a 300-year-old ship biscuit?

Imagine history being fun. Imagine stepping into a forgotten chapter, where Malta’s rich heritage and intriguing past come alive in a way you’ve never experienced before.

Are you craving something deeper than the ordinary tourist trail, something that stirs your soul and connects you to Malta’s hidden heart?

If yes, then you’re not alone! Many travelers feel frustrated, eager to connect with the true essence of Malta but end up feeling like they’re only scratching the surface.

Dates, facts, and architecture are important, but they can’t make you feel the excitement of a knight’s first day in Birgu. Or the simmering tension in the air as a daring lady challenges social norms, all under the watchful eye of the feared Holy Inquisition in Malta!

This is where Malta Themed Tours steps in.


Imagine being greeted by a local Maltese guide—not in modern clothes, but dressed as a real character from Malta’s colorful past, ready to help you re-live that character’s untold story!

In a recent article by top local media company Guide Me Malta, Giacomo explained how his inspiration for Malta Themed Tours was born from his experience in business consulting. He often saw clients disconnected from their financial data, realizing, “These weren’t just dry figures; each number told the real story of their business, challenges, and journey, hidden behind the polished facade of a shop, website, and supposed facts.”

Giacomo shares, “I wondered: how can I make numbers fun and meaningful to serve business owners better?”

Can this be replicated for History?

“Definitely yes! Just as numbers reveal a business’s true story, individual characters reveal the soul of a nation—the passionate, beating heart that made my island what it is today, hidden behind the façade of palaces and general history.”

Giacomo realized he could make Malta’s history come alive for visiting guests and locals, just as he had done with numbers for his consulting clients.

Imagine stepping back in time, strolling through the streets of Valletta with a love-struck 17th-century sea captain, trying to escape poverty while dodging dangerous foes and jealous so-called friends. Or perhaps you’ll join a knight whose vow of chastity might not survive the city’s temptations.

Feeling rebellious and want something even darker? How about allying yourself with a medieval rogue during one of Mdina’s most dangerous periods? Definitely yes? Then get ready to experience the scandal, gossip, and drama as you meet the forgotten people behind the island’s history!
