About Maltese Vintage Bus for hire in Qormi, Malta
Hi! Welcome to my page on All Malta Online.
I am a vintage 1956 Ford Thames Bus.
After many years of service on the local bus routes I have now been given a new lease on life. My kind owners have totally refurbished me and restored me to my original splendor.
I now spend my days doing fun things such as being the centre of attraction when they use me for weddings, private tours of our beautiful islands, graduation parties and the like.
You can contact my owners by using the contact details below and I am sure that they can give you a very reasonable price to hire me for the day or even for just a few hours.
I look forward to taking you on a memorable ride down memory lane so give us a buzz and leave the rest to us.
