Welcome to Gozo, Malta’s quieter and more scenic sister island.


Gozo is known for its cliffs, turquoise bays, ancient temples and slow island rhythm that draws travellers back year after year. It is smaller than Malta but filled with places that feel untouched, from hidden swimming spots to terraced hills that turn golden at sunset. Life here moves at its own pace, shaped by fishing villages, limestone citadels and a landscape that invites exploring.

 

I have lived on Gozo for the past three years and created this site to help visitors discover the island the way locals experience it. Whether you want coastal walks, village restaurants, or a full day of sightseeing, Gozo offers more variety than most people expect. This guide collects the best tours, practical tips and real advice for planning your trip, with recommendations based on what travellers consistently love.

Best Gozo Tours

Tuk Tuk Tour

If you want a fun and easy way to explore the island, the Tuk Tuk Tour Gozo is one of the best choices for first-time visitors. The colourful Tuk Tuks take you along quiet backroads, small villages, scenic cliffs and viewpoints that most travellers never reach on their own. The day also includes a boat trip around Comino, with stops by the Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon and several sea caves. It is a really nice balance of sightseeing and time on the water.

 

Everything is organised for you, including transport, ferry crossings, guiding and lunch, so it is a stress-free way to see a lot in one day. Many travellers pick this tour because it shows the real Gozo without needing to drive or plan every detail.

Gozo Jeep Tour

If you want to explore more remote parts of the island without hiking or figuring out the bus routes, the Jeep Tour Gozo is a great full-day option.

It is an easygoing way to see Gozo’s hidden corners and some of the places that locals love most.

 

The day is all organised for you, including transport, ferry crossings, guiding and lunch, so it feels relaxed from start to finish.

It is a nice mix of land and sea, and a good choice if you want to cover a lot in one day without rushing.

 

Many travellers choose the Jeep Tour Gozo as an alternative to the Tuk Tuk tour, especially if they prefer a bit more comfort or want a smoother ride on uneven paths. Both tours follow a similar spirit and show you a wide range of Gozo’s highlights.

Quad Tour 

If you enjoy a bit of speed and adventure, the Gozo Quad Tour is one of the most exciting ways to explore the island. Quads allow you to reach scenic viewpoints, countryside tracks and coastal areas that are far from the main roads. It is a great choice for travellers who want something active and outdoorsy rather than a traditional sightseeing tour.

 

The tour is guided, so you follow an experienced lead driver who knows the safest and most interesting routes. You get to see cliffs, valleys, bays and local villages while riding through Gozo’s more rugged landscapes. It is a fun way to cover a lot of ground in a short time.

 

Everything for the day is organised for you, including transport, ferry crossings, guiding and lunch. This makes the Gozo Quad Tour a simple, hassle-free option for anyone who wants a full day of adventure without planning the logistics.

If you want to explore Gozo in a more hands-on way and enjoy the outdoors, this tour is one of the most memorable experiences on the island.

Buggy Tour

If you want an active day outdoors and enjoy exploring at your own pace, the Gozo Buggy Tour is a great choice. The two-seater automatic buggies are easy to drive and take you along scenic backroads, coastal trails and rural areas that most visitors never reach. It is a fun way to see Gozo’s cliffs, valleys and small villages while still having the freedom of a self-drive experience.

A skilled tour leader guides the route and shows you the most interesting viewpoints, quieter coves and places that locals often recommend. The tour suits couples, friends and anyone who wants something a bit more adventurous without it being too technical.

 

All self-drive tours include transfers to and from your accommodation in Malta, and lunch is provided so you can focus on enjoying the ride. The Gozo Buggy Tour is especially popular with travellers who prefer a mix of sightseeing and light off-roading.

Blue Lagoon Boat Trip

If you want a relaxed way to enjoy Gozo and Comino from the water, the Blue Lagoon Malta boat trip is a great option. This half-day cruise takes you along the clear southeast coast of Gozo and around Comino, stopping at the famous Blue Lagoon and passing several quieter coves and sea caves that most visitors never see. It is an easy and scenic way to spend a few hours on the water, especially if you enjoy swimming or simply want to take in the coastline.

 

The boat is comfortable, the route is smooth, and you have plenty of time to enjoy the colour of the water around Comino. This trip is ideal for travellers who want something simple and enjoyable without committing to a full-day excursion.

The Blue Lagoon Malta boat trip is only available from mid April to mid October, and places can fill up quickly during summer, so booking in advance is recommended.

Sunset Cruise

If you enjoy quieter evenings on the water and want to see Comino at one of the most beautiful times of day, the Blue Lagoon Malta sunset cruise experience is a great choice. This relaxed trip takes you along the southeast coast of Gozo and Comino during the cooler hours, with time to swim in clear coves before settling on deck to watch the sky change colour over the sea. It is one of the nicest ways to end a summer day on the islands.

 

The route includes highlights around Comino and a stop at the Blue Lagoon, along with a few lesser known coastal spots that are especially peaceful in the evening. The atmosphere is calm, the light is incredible for photos and the sea is usually at its gentlest at this time.

 

The sunset cruise Malta runs from mid April to mid October and tends to be popular in peak season, so booking early is helpful if you want a specific date.

Gozo Private Tour

If you prefer exploring at your own pace and want a more personal experience, the Gozo private tour is an excellent option. Instead of following a group schedule, you can tailor the day to your interests, whether that means focusing on quiet villages, dramatic cliffs, historic sites or hidden swimming spots. A private guide takes you around the island in a Tuk Tuk, which allows you to reach smaller roads and scenic areas that larger vehicles cannot access.

 

This tour is ideal for couples, families and small groups who want more flexibility and a relaxed atmosphere. Your guide shares local stories, suggests viewpoints and helps you discover parts of Gozo that many visitors miss. It is a comfortable and easy way to experience the island without rushing or navigating unfamiliar roads.

 

Since the Gozo private tour is customised, it can include stops such as the Citadel in Victoria, the salt pans, Xwejni Bay, Dwejra, small rural villages and coastal paths, depending on what you want to see. It is a great choice if you want the freedom to shape your own itinerary while still having someone knowledgeable leading the way.
