Hello. I'm Marianne, your local expert for Malta

Active online: 17h ago

I was born in France, into a French-Spanish family. From a young age, I was used to travel between these two countries, growing my fondness of traveling very early on. After some stints in Ireland and Spain, I ended up in Sicily.

For 4 years, I led groups and individuals across Sicily and the Amalfi Coast, from volcanoes to the Italian countryside, I got to know everything firsthand.

I decided to hang up my tour guide hat and started using my first-hand travel knowledge to help travelers worldwide to have the best trip possible in Italy. I can't wait to make your dream trip to Italy, Malta or France come true!

Trip to Italy

“My husband and I enjoyed our trip! He kept remarking that I did a good job planning it and I said I couldnt take all the credit! Everyone I was in contact with (especially Marianne) were very easy to work with. All our connections went smoothly. Our tour guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. I hope to go back to Italy and travel in the northern part of the country and I will use Rough Guides again!”

“Our hotels, Tours and transportation were great but it was the communication with the representatives that was unexpected and reassuring. Someone communicated with us throughout our trip and made our experience outstanding, I would highly recommend this tour company. ”

“We just returned from an unbelievable trip to Italy through Rough Guides. Marianne arranged for our complete tour of Pisa, Rome, Florence, Venice, Pompeii and Amalfi coast! The hotels, tours, tour guides and transportation were perfect. They were in contact with us as well during our trip if we needed anything. Unbelievable company and one we will pick again for future trips!!”

“Guides were wonderful, drivers excellent, great accommodations but the communication available while we were in Sicily was superb ! Any time there was any issue (and we did have a couple) they were sorted very quickly and competently. Marianne, who put together our 10 day Itinerary was great, not an easy feat with 11 opinions/ requests! Our only disapointment was Mt. Etna, the hike was too challenging for our group and would have been better had we had something with minimal hiking and vehicle/gondola as were available at the base.( Just to note: one of our group walks 10 miles a day but found it difficult).”
