I'm Emm, a local Malta guide and unapologetic history geek. I'm usually found leading private tours, but lately I wanted to give something back — direct insight into the historic centres I love, to you, VoiceMap users. My audio tours of Malta are built around what I love most about these beautiful central Mediterranean islands: the architecture, the art history and local traditions.
These routes bring parts of my longer, bespoke private tours to independent travellers like you, who prefer to explore at your own pace — and to cruise ship guests who'd rather set your own route and timing than join a big group tour.
Each self-guided route is easy to follow and richly layered with art, architecture, and storytelling that bring the history of the Maltese islands to life. Plan on around two hours — or four, if you walk my way: slowly, stopping at every corner, taking in the detail and the local cafés.
My Valletta and harbour routes trace the Knights of St John through Baroque streets, the British Empire's commercial legacy, and the story of the Grand Harbour and its people. All my tours include a few stops near cafés and museums I love, so you can wander into history at your own pace.
Why my profile picture? It's a detail of my family's Maltese door knocker — an elaborate brass dolphin fish on a 8pointed cross familiar in Malta - stylised into a logo by my teen son on blues . It felt welcoming, unmistakably Maltese, and beautiful too. When you're out walking, tag me with your photos of balcony corbels, door knockers, and façades, and I'll repost my favourites.
Wander into Malta's story with me.
