Overview
We know our way around and gain precious time by following a customised itinerary, depending on the particular preferences of our clientele. We conduct the tour in such a way that, besides being culturally and historically informative to the customers, we always allow them to chill out and reminisce in every location we take them to.
We do not compromise with the professionalism of the tour guide or the standard of the tour transport vehicle, and therefore always strive to offer an optimum service.
The tour guide is also licensed to drive as a precautionary measure, but we prefer to offer separate services of a tour guide and a chauffeur.

What to expect
-
Island of Gozo
6 hours
Once in Gozo, the average distance from one point to another is 15 minutes. The furthest point from the Mgarr Harbour is only 25 minutes away, and namely in Dwejra, on the west side of Gozo. The inland sea and General Rock of this location are unique geological creations and hence out of this world.
-
Ta' Pinu National Shrine
20 min
Ta Pinu Sanctuary is where Our Lady allegedly spoke to a lady farmer in the year 1883 and revealed her desire for intercessions and prayers to receive graces. This happened in the 530-year old chapel, which was integrated masterfully by the larger Basilica to cater for the increasing number of pilgrims. The highlights here include the painting of the Assumption of you Lady and the 1,300 different stone reliefs which adorn the Sanctuary.
-
Xwejni Salt Pans
15 min
Salt Pans of Xwejni, hewn into the rock since time immemorial to provide enough salt after the evaporation of the contained sea water. Photo stops here are called for because the surroundings are very scenic.
-
The Citadel
1 hour
The Citadella of the capital Victoria is the outstanding jewel in the central part of the sister island of Gozo. Its fortification walls and bastions offer 360 degree views over the whole island and its steep winding streets mesmerise and take us back in time to reminisce about historic events.
-
Ggantija Archaeological Park
50 min
A visit of the prehistoric Ggantija Temples in Gozo would also be of particular interest to those guests who are intrigued by ancient civilisations. These temples are the oldest free-standing Megalith temples in the world and, despite being vandalised over time, boast intact large rubble stone walls on the inside and magnificent protective megalith walls on the outside. The stature of these temples reflect the intensity of our ancestral faith, which could then literally move mountains.
-
Qala
15 min
A stop at the lovely Belvedere of Qala in Gozo to enjoy a bird’s eye view over the Maltese archipelago including the Blue Lagoon of the smallest island called Comino.
-
Dwejra Bay
45 min
Lovely Inland Sea and mushroom-shaped General’s Rock.
The short but intense boat trip through the unique rock tunnel of the Inland Sea out onto Gozo‘s Blue Grotto is not to be missed, if the sea is calm enough for it to take place. The boat trip is not included in the tour price.
