A Fun and Exciting day out which will take you to both sister islands of
Gozo and Comino. We start our tour with with a short ferry crossing to
Gozo Island. Gozo is the greenest of the Maltese Islands, and you will
notice this almost immediately when you arrive. The the beautiful
landscape, stunning valleys amongst other unique characteristics makes
Gozo the ideal location for touring by Jeep. Our tour features some of
the popular sites including Calypso Cave, Azzur Window and the Inland
Sea, you will drive on the salt pans and through the pretty quaint
villages. At around lunch time we make our way down to Mgarr port where
you will be picked up by catamaran. On board the Spirit of Malta
catamaran you can help yourself to a lovely buffet lunch and open bar
before we stop in one of the lagoons around Comino Island. Here you can
swim, snorkle or just relax on the catamaran. As the day comes to an end

Valletta – Mdina - Rabat - Mosta Dome
Our first visit during this tour is Valletta,
here we include the Barraka Gardens which offer
stunning views of the Grand Harbour and magnificent fortifications, a
walk down Triq Republikka where you can admire numerous historical
buildings built by the Knights of St. John including the Aubereges, the
Grand Masters Palace and the St. John's Co. Cathedral, the church of the
order and also home to Caravaggio's masterpiece
"Beheading of St. John" amonst other treasures. Our next stop will be
to Mdina. Mdina is a unique medieval city, built in the 9th century, the
city was built on a plateau in the centre of the island and from the
high bastion walls you can admire stunning views of the island.
This medieval city is a maze of narrow
alleys and magnificent architecture, the only way to appreciate this
special city is to stroll through it and admire the living history. Free
time will be given for lunch, approx. 1 hour. After lunch we proceed
with our tour and visit the old town of Rabat.
Here we will make our way through the narrow streets to the centre which
is dominated by the imposing St. Paul's Church
which overlooks the piazza. Rabat, can claim the origins of
Maltese Christianity. It was here in AD60 that the Apostle St Paul is
said to have stayed after being shipwrecked on the Islands. We visit
the St. Paul's Grotto which is said to be the resting place of St. Paul
during his visit to the islands. Our final stop is one of Malta's most
famous churches, Mosta Dome. The church’s dome is the third largest
unsupported in the world, exceeded in size only by St. Peter’s in Rome
and St. Sophia in Istanbul. Mosta Dome is also popular with visitors as
it was at this church where the World War II bomb pierced the dome
during a service, fell inside the church during a service and failed to
explode, this locals hailed as a miracle. Our tour ends here and we make
our way back to your hotel.
