Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about planning your Malta trip with Xemxi.
How does Xemxi create my itinerary?
Xemxi combines a curated local knowledge base with AI to build a personalised day-by-day plan. We consider your travel dates, group type, interests, pace preference, and transport mode, then assemble an itinerary from our database of Malta locations, activities, and restaurants.
Is Xemxi free?
Yes. Right now every plan is free: profile your trip and get a day-by-day itinerary at no cost. A Premium tier (the full week, PDF download, shareable links, activity swaps, and Gozo day trips) is on the way, and you can register your interest for it on our Premium page.
Does the plan cover Gozo?
Gozo day trips, with ferry routing tailored to your transport mode (car ferry from Ċirkewwa, or fast ferry from Valletta and Sliema), are part of the upcoming Premium tier. Free plans focus on the main island of Malta.
How accurate are the opening hours?
We verify opening hours against official sources and mark when they were last checked. Seasonal variations can occur, so we recommend confirming directly with the venue for time-sensitive visits.
Can I modify the plan after it is generated?
Editing, swapping individual activities and regenerating specific days, is part of the upcoming Premium tier. Your generated plan is saved to your account so you can revisit it anytime.
What months are best to visit Malta?
Malta is great year-round. Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) offer warm weather with fewer crowds. Summer is peak season with higher temperatures and busy beaches. Winter is mild and ideal for cultural exploration.
Do I need a car in Malta?
It depends on your style. Buses reach most places but can be slow. A rental car gives freedom, especially for beaches and Gozo. Bolt (ride-hailing) is affordable for shorter trips. Xemxi tailors your plan to your chosen transport mode.
