Malta · Since the 1920s · Third generation
The island, on your terms.
Self-drive hire, private chauffeurs, long-term leasing and vintage wedding cars — from a Maltese family that has been moving people since before the roads were paved.
What we do
Four ways to move
around Malta.
One family, one standard. Whether you want the keys in your hand or a driver at the kerb, it is the same fleet, the same care and the same phone number that has been answered here for three generations.

Chauffeur service
Arrive without
lifting a finger.
Your driver is tracking the flight before you land. The car is cool, the water is cold, and the bags are in the boot before you have found the exit. For meetings, we wait. For tours, we know where the good light is at five o'clock.
- Flight-tracked airport pick-ups, day or night
- Budget and luxury tiers — Peugeot Estate through Mercedes E-Class
- People carriers for groups of five to fourteen
- Smart, uniformed drivers on every job
- Fixed, quoted fares — no meter, no surprises
The fleet
Pick your car.
We'll bring it to you.
Every vehicle is air-conditioned, serviced in-house and available with automatic or manual transmission. Collect from our Lija office, or have it delivered free to Malta International Airport, your hotel or any address.
Included as standard
Ready before you are.
Nothing on this list is an extra, an upsell or a box to tick at the desk. It is simply how every Percius car leaves our yard.
24-hour roadside cover
Every hire car carries round-the-clock roadside assistance and breakdown backup. One number, any hour, anywhere on the islands.
Full tank, cleaned twice
Cars are handed over valeted and with a full tank of petrol — and photographed at handover, so a scratch that was already there stays already there.
Air conditioning in all of them
Not a category, not a surcharge. From the smallest city car to the fourteen-seat minibus, the air conditioning works in August.
Free delivery and collection
Collect from our office in Lija, or we bring the car to Malta International Airport, your hotel or any address — and come back for it.
A proper map, on paper
Every visiting client gets a detailed island map with the car. Maltese village roads have a way of defeating a phone at the worst moment.
Serviced on our own ramps
Long-term rentals are washed and serviced on a schedule we keep ourselves. The workshop is ours, so nothing waits in someone else's queue.
Weddings
The one journey
you'll remember.
We have driven three generations of Maltese couples from the front door to the church and out into the rest of their lives. The cars are polished the night before. The driver knows every narrow street in Valletta, Mdina and Birgu. And if the photographer needs ten more minutes, that is fine — we are not going anywhere.

A car on your books,
not on your mind.
Over twenty years of leasing to Maltese businesses, embassies and families. You choose the car — virtually any model you like — and the term. We handle the licence, the servicing, the tyres and the replacement vehicle on the morning it is in the garage.

One car, one monthly figure. Insurance and maintenance folded in.
Commercial
Vans and fleet vehicles for trades, deliveries and site teams.
Executive
Premium saloons and SUVs for directors and visiting staff.

Our heritage
Three generations.
One family. One island.
Before Percius had cars, it had horses. What has not changed is who answers the phone.
- 1920s
The first motor car
Louis's father worked the island with a horse and carriage. Louis bought one of the first motor cars in the village and started driving physicians, clergy and midwives wherever they were needed.
- 1940
The Law Courts move
When the courts relocated to Balzan, magistrates and judges became regular passengers — and the small operation became a proper business.
- 1940s
The war years
Through the siege and after it, the British Services became the principal clients, and the cars rarely stopped moving.
- Today
Still family-run
Five working directors, a fleet spanning city cars to fourteen-seat minibuses, and the doors open six days a week.
Reviews
What our passengers say.
★★★★★
We've used Percius for our airport transfers since we first visited Malta in mid 2014. They were recommended to us and we are very happy to recommend them to you. Excellent drivers, immaculate cars, and the whole team couldn't be more friendly or helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to use any of the services that this business offers.
