Tour Description
Our tour starts with a transfer to the north of Malta and then a short 25min. ferry crossing which passes the small and pretty island of Comino.
On arrival at the picturesque Mgarr harbour, you will notice how much greener it is on Gozo. Even though so close to the larger island of Malta, the smaller island has many different characteristics. Included on our tour is a variety of scenic routes and interesting sights. We include stops at the Inland Sea and Azure Window at Dwejra, Victoria and the imposing Citadel, the beautiful seaside village of Xlendi Bay and the oldest free standing temples in the world, known as Ggantija Temples, these temples date back circa.3500 to 4000BC. A local lunch is included and some time for shopping for local hand made lace and woolen goods, both very popular buys on the island.
Throughout the day you will also see some of Gozo's typical old villages where the pace of life is typical of Mediterranean lifestyle of years gone by. We return back by ferry and back to your hotel.
