“Exceptional service! If you’re in Malta, I highly recommend this experience for friends or couples. The entire day was amazing from start to finish. From hotel pickup at 8am to drop-off at 4pm, everything felt straight out of a movie. My girls and I absolutely loved it — the boat ride, the jeep, and the lunch were all fantastic. A special thank you to our driver, who was incredibly knowledgeable about every destination and went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable.

“Everything was well organized from the time we got picked up at the hotel and dropped off. The tour itself was fabulous. It was a lot of fun sitting in the open Jeep and going around Gozo to see the sights. There was 4 of us in the Jeep and so it was quick to get in and out, every time we stopped at a sight. Much better than any bus tour, as long as there was no rain. Our guides Mike and Nick did a tremendous job driving and telling us about the history of Gozo and Malta. They gave us enough time to enjoy the stops without being…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 166 reviews · 2.5 - 4.5 hours · from $53

Take a high-speed boat from St. Julian’s to Comino, with free time for swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing, or walking. The ride takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on conditions. You must arrange Malta’s Blue Lagoon access pass before boarding ashore.

“The speedboat transfer was fast and comfortable, offering fantastic views along the way. The driver was attentive, played music, and gave a brief but interesting history of the spots we passed. On the return trip, he provided life jackets, which were essential as the waves became quite rough. The visit to the Caves and Comino Island/Blue Lagoon was truly memorable—the water shimmered in beautiful shades of blue and green and was crystal clear. While the Blue Lagoon was very busy, we managed to rent deck chairs and still enjoyed an excellent time. There was a wide variety of food and drinks available at reasonable prices, and most vendors, including the…”

“This whole trip was amazing from start to finish, from the moment I booked the communication was spot on which was reassuring from the off. On the tour day we were met by our skipper Justin who was just the best, the man is a legend who is not only in our opinion a true gent, a knowledgeable guy who clearly enjoys his job and the role of making you feel welcomed but he has to be known as the life and soul of Malta/Gozo. The caves and the sights that he showed us were amazing and the pictures and memories that we have as a family will last forever.…”
