Please take the time to visit these absolute gems. My wife and our Daughters have been visiting (and loving!) Malta, Gozo and Comino for a few years. I obtained a "pass out" to visit this place. Having read "Ladies of Lascaris" and my Dad having passed through (Straight Street)... I was keen to visit. The guide was a young man called Jean, and was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but so enthusiastic. And explained not only defensive, but offensive armament. And the second oldest tree on Malta. I am ex Navy, and he never missed a beat with some tricky questions! To cap it all off was the Saluting Battery and a true gentleman called Mark, who, despite 30+ temps, in period uniform was as cool as a cucumber. He gave me a real insight into the ordnance and his job. What a true professional. I have to say, the two were absolute stars, and paragons of a good job well done. Mark put me in mind of "Yeoman Warder" at the Tower of London (YouTube it), but in a much nicer way. This was the first "selfie" I have ever taken. Respect is due!

Incredibly passionate tour guide Mike illuminated the war rooms like no one else could. Astoundingly fascinating and a history often ignored. These war rooms are not to be missed. What a role Malta played in WWII! Go and find out! The tour was detailed and entertaining and I feel quite emotional for anyone who has connections to the war.

Excellent time at Lascaris War Rooms. Mike, the tour guide, made it all fascinating and insightful. People who chose not to do the guided tour really missed out big time, as he made it all come alive as if he'd been part of the incredible history of it himself. I can't recommend the War Rooms highly enough. A couple of hours very well spent

Brilliant. To touch history and to be immersed to n it by a very knowledgeable guide was fantastic. If you do nothing else in Malta do this. You won't regret it. The Maltese people put up with so much to help the war effort. This explains why Malta was needed and how they struggled. If I could give ten stars I would

Today we visited Lascaris War Rooms in Valletta and joinedMike’s tour. It was extremely interesting and we thoroughly enjoyed Mike’s presentation and insite into life during the WW2 on Malta and the crucial work done in the war rooms. We both recommend a visit to the war rooms during your stay in Valletta.

Even if you only have a passing history in history the war rooms are well worth a visit. We were lucky to have Nate as our tour guide, as a history student he clearly had an in depth knowledge and a passion for the subject and kept the entire group engaged, enthralled and entertained throughout the entire tour. I would definitely recommend this tour as part of your Malta experience

Nate was our guide - what a knowledgable young man who really knew his stuff, it was a very enjoyable tour. These rooms have been meticulously restored to show how the war effort was organised in Malta. Highly recommended.

Informative and interesting. It's worth taking the guided tour. Mike, our guide was knowledgeable and supplied interesting facts that we would otherwise have missed. I would recommend a visit to understand the sheer scale and undertaking of that era.

We visited the war rooms as part of our visit from our cruise ship. It is amazing. So much information, so well displayed and lots of authentic artefacts. Rooms are set out as they would have been in WW2. It is all well thought out by curator, James who is such a kind and thoughtful person and helped one member of our party with walking difficulties. Thank you so much.

Really enjoyable guided tour but you can just walk around on your own. The tour was great led by a guide Nate who clearly knows and loves the WW2 history of the island. Not sure the guided tour would be suitable for younger guests as there is quite a lot of information to take in but as lovers of history we really enjoyed it.
