The staff were very friendly. I love how bus are always on time, and the routes (Red line and blue line) are great to know the island. The only thing I would like to recommend is to improve the audios. I estimate on average there were audio only in 10% to 15% of the trips. For someone interested in knowing Malta this is desappointing.
