This guide was created out of a deep passion for our home island, Malta. Malta Info Guide is more than just a travel site, it is a personal journey, showcasing our islands through real experiences, first-hand insights and unforgettable content across multiple platforms.

This is just the beginning, sit back, explore, and enjoy the journey! 😊

How Malta Info Guide Began

We have always wanted to share our passion for Malta with the world. Knowing the Malta is a small island and not widely known, we set out to expand its reach online. And so, our journey began.

Back in 2012, Malta Info Guide was launched, created by a father-and-son duo, two locals with a deep love for our home island.

The idea behind Malta Info Guide was simple:

Albert has always had a deep love for culture, which began during his secondary education. His history teacher would take the class to historically significant sites such as the megalithic temples, the Ħal Saflieni Hypogeum, and Għar Dalam, sparking his lifelong passion for Malta’s heritage.

He also participated in local cultural groups, where the Ministry of Culture organized monthly historical site tours across Malta from 1990 to 1994. These experiences allowed him to expand his knowledge and, for several years, he personally organized cultural visits for foreigners, sharing his love for Malta’s history with visitors from around the world.

Benjamin, on the other hand, was always drawn to technology and innovation. He was passionate about finding new ways to showcase Malta to a wider audience through digital platforms. His expertise in photography, video editing, animation, and social media has grown tremendously since the launch of Malta Info Guide. Studying these subjects as part of his diploma and degree further deepened his skills and understanding.

He joined Malta Info Guide at just 14 years old, with the technological knowledge available at the time. However, alongside his love for digital media, he has always had a strong passion for Malta, especially its history.

Since launching Malta Info Guide, our platform has grown into a trusted resource, helping thousands of travellers plan their holidays to Malta each year. We have also reached plenty of locals who find it useful for day-to-day information.
