I woke up this morning wanting to know more about Malta and had the fortune of finding your wonderful video - thank you Alex!

Hi Alex a great video and thankyou so much for making this.

Always LOVE watching your videos Alex!!! Love from South Africa ❤❤❤

Great video Alex, thank you for the great tips as I plan my trip to your beautiful country.

Love your Videos.Thank you for always depicting Malta as a beautiful place.We still have a lot of things to arrange.!!

Thank you for the helpful and funny video, Alex. I’m going to Malta for a March holiday. I will download your guide as soon as I click send here

Spot on video as usual, well done Alex 👏👏👏

Thank you so much Alex you are doing a great job living in our beautiful Malta.

Thank you very much for producing this video. I am going to travel to Malta in December and i was a little unprepared. But now I know more and i will read your guide book :D

Alex, I've been enjoying your videos and you just earned yourself a new subscriber (Maltese living in the US here). You did remind me on how I used to get all heated up driving there, you were spot on on that (I did however witness much worse driving in a couple other European cities).

Very honest and personal advises that you are giving here, I really appreciate how non complacent you are about things. Thus us refreshing and really informative for us who have not visited the island yet.

Great video. Thanks for all the tips, I'm visiting Malta soon, really helpful!

Thanks for Sharing Good information again Alex 👍

Thank you Alex, I was fortunate enough to visit Malta last Oct/Nov at the end of the 'season' and it was beautiful and an amazing experience. So much so, that I have already booked another holiday to start the last week of April. Thank you for the valuable tips and of course all the other videos you've produced about Malta and how to get the best of of any visit, its appreciated!

Zurieq is like no life there. I stayed twice in Buggiba Saint Paul's Bay, (for me) the best place to live in Malta ☺️ I didn't have any problem to talk mixed english n arabic to Maltese people. I find them so kind n helpful ❤❤❤

Hey Alex, we've been watching vids researching Malta for an upcoming trip and you have the best, funniest by far!! "We don't care"!! Brilliant!

Alex that was a brilliant video everything you said is so true I love listening to your advice thank you ❤

Just back from Malta :-) you are so sunny person❤ thanks for this great video🎉

great video Alex!

Great tips Alex! Use to drive in Malta but not any more , I’ll stick to the buses and taxis now as the roads are so much more busy now!

Thank you so much for cousiousnes by sharing necessary information

a lot of genuine information...thk u alex

thanks i am gonna visit soon very helpful video

I can't help but smile because I can relate to you so much about the driving in Malta part of your video. I also get heated up when talking about driving here as I also drive in Malta. It is somehow such a relief that it's not only me who feels this way about the drivers and pedestrians here, why they drive like that and when you think about it, the small stupid road accidents should not happen if they just follow the rules and give way to others when needed. 1-2 seconds to wait, stop can avoid these road accidents and traffic.

Nice vedeo very interisting ❤

Wow, I am so impressed with your video presentation. I love the island as I have the priviledge and honour to have been born here. I'm in my 70th year and think of Malta as my home. I am so ashamed that I have never taken the time to learn the language but I know that you are spot on with your coments of not over doing it. My prefered place of residence, when i come, is Sleima and they are fantastic towards visitors. Your attitude toward the local people and the vistors is perfect. A priviledge to listened to your advise. I ca n only hope that visitors take note of your advise

Great info... I'd love to know what the tipping guide is?

thanks Alex for a very informative video, Love from Canada

Thank you for making these videos about my Country. Malta is barely noticed by other people from different countries. I speak Maltese hope you do too 😊

Spot on, well done 👍

Everything you’ve said so informant

Thank you very much for the great video and very useful tips. Can you recommend Malta for a stag do at the end of April? is there something going on? what is the nightlife like this time of year? thank you very much in advance 😊

Love your videos. You make me want to come there

love your ❤video as always 🎉

Your explanation is worth it brother... 😅❤

Good morning Alex🎉

Omg😂#7 was so funny Alex Great list

Nice guy and great video Maltese parents but live in England got two holidays for 2024 booked already but would love to move there .

Cheers Alex..another great informative video..Chris Birmingham UK

What’s funny to me is that last month, we spent about 3 weeks driving around Sicily before flying from Catania into Luqa, and I honestly told our taxi driver the day we arrived in Malta that I was so glad for the calm driving! It seems that even the crazy driving in Malta feels like a slow Sunday cruise when compared to Sicilian driving! I think I would have been worried about trying to learn to drive on the other side of the road, however. That definitely messes with your mind when you first experience it.

Great stuff

Hi Alex! Just see your channel and videos and found funny and interesting. Just joined it and tip to the bell... :) Next October me and my motorider club in Sicily will have a weekend trip to Malta. Of course it's a very short period for appreciating the beautiful things we will see, but I think it will be really funny, thanks also to your suggest. Cheers from sicily :)

You make me smile.

Great video! Very informative. Loved your hand gesture description of the seductive "ladies" of Paceville, lol. 😘

In my country Nigeria which is in the western part of Africa, Ehen is a normal everyday word for us and it's used in 3different ways, it would be difficult to see a Nigerian not using that in their everyday sentences, ehen is used mainly when speaking our broken english called pidgin english it's used as an exclamation in 3different ways, so if you see a Nigerian using that term you must understand it was gotten from home, you are either using it to concur to what the person is saying, or you use it when you are surprised at a statement the person makes cos you weren't aware, or you use it after daring a person in a conversation

Thanks Alex for this info. I'm planning to come to Malta for 3 nights in mid-December . Any tips on best place to stay and things to do in 72 hours? Thanks.

If I get visa for purposes of my rest of the study then I will travel over there and your videos might be helpful for me.

Great video! We're visiting Malta soon and I'd like your input on whether it's worth renting a car to visit the main sights of the country. Also none of us have ever driven a right-hand steering wheel car, in a left-side driving country haha, so coupled with the erratic driving of the locals that you described, should we perhaps just stick to buses to get around?

A huge well done..

good one Alex.. but fireworks 8am to 11pm? Better check your clock the fireworks are more like 7am to 1am !! 😄

I loved those fireworks 🎆 they were amazing

I love love your videos 😂

Im a big van of mass transit but the busses are terrible- always late, always crowded and it can take 2 hours to go 15 kilometers

I'm coming over to Malta on the 11 December for 28 nights,very much looking forward to it,and I know they celebrate Christmas much better than in England

A much needed video! You forgot to mention the beautiful sound of our Church bells which many foreigners living in Malta hate! They must come from very boring countries!

I think you forgot to mention the sandy beach of Birzebbuga 😎🌝🇲🇹👍🏼

Hi Alex! I'm going to visit Malta soon for the first time! I'm also thinking about moving there in the future (TEFL). Thank you for giving all the information! I was wondering and hope you don't mind me asking: are you living with a roommate? I can imagine it being hard (financially and socially) to live alone (but also nice, haha). Best wishes, Karin!

You should add: Just because it's a very small place.... doesn't mean that you can travel around quickly. Cabs might be faster but I use the buses (tal-linja card) and going somewhere just a few kilometers away can take a really, really long time and you need to factor that in when making plans.

Morning! Alex😊

Hey Alex, thank you for a great discussion and real facts about Malta, my birth country. I may want to add something that may not be on everyone's radar. If you come to Malta and want to hire a (God Forbid) car, think again. If you are 75 years and over, the Insurance cos. do not cover you, so you may want to give that a miss. I speak with recent experience. I am sorry I missed your walk and live show in Valletta recently.

I plan on schooling in Malta… what’s your take on??

I'm going to malta on 9th December till 23rd December...staying at the db seabank...cant wait 🍺 🍻

Thank u so much sir

Glad you touched on the subject about driving in Malta 😂 the taxi drivers act like they are racing in nascar

6:03 especially the green grass in water that is so slippery so be careful

You are hilarious!! I tried to purchase your guide, but it's only sold in Europe. I'm in US and would love a copy. Do you sell to US?

Hi Alex !!

interesting.

Point 11 watch all your videos! But the driving point is so true. I still have ptsd lol. Oh and point 12 come hungry

Hey Alex, how can I get your book? thx

I live in Italy (in the north east) and I find Maltese traffic quite relaxing, traffic jams excluded.

Soon i will be in malta and i want to meet you also

what is best sity for living?

True. The driving is madness. Many accidents

Having watched the 3 part series about Malta on Sky TV, I was seriously considering going there for a holiday......probably not anymore.

#7 Ehe mela mela with eyes rolling annoyed faced 😂. The most helpful tip in the video. 8:01, 8:33, 9:09, 9:22

Hahha I thought I should use Mela because everyone does 🤣Great video

Was in Malta in June..amazing island

Love what you said.... ehe, mela Vera.....true that maltese speak like that!!!!!! I have been away for 17 years, and now i find it funny!!!!(maltese)

What about motorbikes in Malta?

10:07 i mean look at Ibiza (so many partys)

Frist language in malta is English as you well know been under british role for 150 years research please,,,,but hey love your videos reminds me when lived there many years ago but visit often hence English is still first lingo as you know Sliema st julians and all over

Qala feast 2023 was very windy on saturday we had fire works and 20 people were had burn

I live in malta and he is so right

thanks Alex ,Malta sounds like a place to avoid and i will.

I'll travel to Malta on november 7 for 3 momths🎉🎉🎉

Visiting Malta at the end of February. From what I gather, English is spoken all around?

You have really spot on everything as usual…. Bdw we also use also the word ‘ta’ 😅

This video is sponsored by myself 😂 Alex sir Thank you for giving us information

3:10 is pronounced Zoorieq like the q in arabic.

and at the end ...why should i even go there on my holiday and get more stress than my usual city?

So it’s okay to explore underground tunnels then??

Mr. Alex can u make a video about the update for Malta Government regarding refusals of work permit and the new rules. TIA❤

i live in Malta ty/ for telling me

Maybe a bit beyond the scope of this video but I am Maltese and I can tell you that a lot of Maltese people complain about fireworks, particularly the extremely noisy (bombs) petard. I love the colourful night time ones, but something needs to be done regarding petards + we don't need launches at 8am. (Where I live they do an entire week of this, barely 300m away from my house) Traditions change and evolve over time (the same thing happened in Italy). So by all means, complain because a lot of us dislike the noisy bombs/petards, just because something is traditional does not mean it cannot be altered.

11:37 there is a hotel in Cirkewwa but this hotel is only used for Gozo and Comino

How is education and jobs in malta

Excellent....guess what ?!? I bought your Malta guide book😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😊😊😊😊😊

Ćao Alex! Pozdrav iz Novog Sada. 😊 To za saobraćaj…daaaa, divljina. 😳😵‍💫 And they driving like a crazy…on those roads!?🙄 Sure.🤭But…”wrong” side of a road- I was waiting bus on opposite side of a road once or twice!🤭😂😆 ridiculous 😅

Malta is my country, I am definately Maltese and have always lived in Malta. But it is true the so called "Festi" have become heavy to support to say the least. When I was little the Festa would be just during the weekend and we would have only the Church Fireworks and some few more from the Band clubs. It was nice, simple and it truly was religious. Unfortunately nowadys the Festi turned into " a Sodoma and Gomorra", I see nothing religious in these Festi anymore. It's just an excuse to drink and party for a whole week, and for the Band clubs to compete on who will have the biggest and most bombastic Fireworks of all. But obviously this is just my opinion, no offenece to no one.
