Explore Gozo by quad, swim at Ramla Bay, see Dwejra, and return by powerboat through Comino for a full day of island adventure.

“It was fantastic. Our quad bike guide was Mark who did a wonderful job leading us safely around the island. Our buggy experienced a mechanical problem about 10 min into the tour, thankfully, a replacement was quickly brought to us so we could continue the day. Lunch was included, and a couple other stops including a refreshment break. Also the two boat trips were very good. This was December 2025 and we can say we’d like to do it again. It was fun!!”

4.From Valetta: Catamaran Tour with Hop-On, Hop-Off Gozo Tour

★★★★★★★★★★3.7 · 132 reviews · 1 day · from $35

Review of the Valletta to Gozo catamaran and hop-on bus tour, with ferry tips, route limits, costs, stops, and practical advice.

“Sjovt at se Gozo fra oven. Selve busturen var den største oplevelse, da kørslen var meget spændende og vi blev kastet lidt rundt. Et stop på nordsiden af Gozo aflyst - angiveligt grundet “road-construction”. Færgeturen hjem var en udfordring da de påstod vi kunne havde en enkeltbillet. Retur delen af færgeturen stod kun på dansk - så det var kun grundet virkelig intens insisteren at vi kom hjem uden ekstra pris. Den del var lidt utjekket.”

5.Sightseeing Shore Excursion for Cruise Passengers

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 43 reviews · 4 hours · from $117

Explore Mdina and Valletta on a four-hour Malta shore excursion with guided walks, Barrakka Gardens, transport, and cruise-port return.

“We would have preferred more time in Valetta and less in Mdina. I was under the impression that we would go inside the cathedral rather than hear about it. "30 minute guided tour" implies going inside not just the exterior.”

6.Special Night Harbour Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 41 reviews · 1.5 hours · from $24Best value

Review the Sliema night harbour cruise, with Valletta views, a small boat, ten creeks, live commentary, price, timing, and practical advice.

“The boat ride was lovely because there were only 10 of us on board as opposed to the usual 50+. The tour however was read to us however by the vost drivers phone (AI/Computer). When It was run by Supreme tours, the boat driver was the guide and much more informative. For £17 however, its a great 1.5 hours to sit, have a few drinks, take pictures and juat relax. I would recommend it, yes.”
