As a Dutchman who used to live in Malta for a few years, I have to warn you: Maltese public transport really bad in comparison. If your bus might be 10 minutes early or 20 minutes late and it won't show in the public transport app. If you want to get somewhere on time that's not within walking distance, you'll need a car (there are ride sharing cars and scooters). Bus tickets are cheap though.
And yeah, the climate is much much better. I really mis being able to see the sun.
- blunte 5y agoThank you for the warning. Are scooters common? In Thailand and Bali that is the easy answer in most cases, and I imagine Malta weather is usually reasonable for this mode of transport.
- wartijn_ 5y agoI would say maybe about as common as in The Netherlands. So it's definitely not at a Bali level, but you can there are still plenty of them. I didn't buy or long-term-rent one myself, but used https://whizascoot.mt/ https://whizascoot.mt/ and https://gotoglobal.com/en/goto-malta/ https://gotoglobal.com/en/goto-malta/ and I would buy one over a car. Traffic and parking can be bad, and scooters really help out there. And the fastest you can go on any road is 80km/h, so you can get everywhere by scooter. (the ride sharing ones are limited to 50km/h, so roads with a higher maximum speed are not ideal)
