Gozo’s wild cliffs, ancient stones and a salty breeze by tuk tuk

You’ll ride open-air tuk tuks along Gozo’s winding roads with a local guide, explore ancient temples and seaside villages, stop for lunch in a quiet courtyard, and finish with a boat ride past Comino’s Blue Lagoon. Expect salty air, honest food, and moments you’ll remember long after you’ve left the island.

Step-by-step itinerary

The Experience

I thought I’d seen “Mediterranean blue” before, but stepping off the boat from Malta to Gozo—well, it was different. The light was sharp, almost too bright at first. Our guide, Mario (he said he grew up just down the road from Xlendi Bay), waved us over to a row of tuk tuks that looked like toys compared to the big coaches. I felt a bit silly climbing in with my backpack bumping everyone’s knees. But honestly? That first jolt of wind as we zipped through Fontana’s narrow streets made me laugh out loud.

We stopped at Ta’ Ċenċ Cliffs when the sun was still low enough to throw long shadows on the limestone. The air smelled faintly of wild thyme and salt. Mario pointed out some birds circling below—shearwaters, he said—and then told us about ancient cart ruts carved into the rock. I tried to imagine people hauling things up here thousands of years ago. It made me feel tiny and kind of lucky at the same time. The tuk tuk rattled on toward Victoria’s Citadel, where you could hear church bells echoing off stone walls while kids ran past with gelato.

Lunch was simple: crusty bread, tomatoes so sweet they tasted almost sun-cooked, and a glass of local wine that went down fast after all that wind. We ate in a shady courtyard somewhere near Marsalforn—I lost track of names after a while because I kept getting distracted by people talking in Maltese around us. There was this old man who nodded at me when I tried to say “grazzi.” Pretty sure I got it wrong but he smiled anyway.

The last part—cruising back by boat past Comino’s Blue Lagoon—felt almost unreal after so much dusty exploring. Kids squealed when we passed close to the caves; someone near me dipped their hand in the water just to see if it was as clear as it looked (it was). I still think about that view, late afternoon sun turning everything gold for a minute or two before we docked again. If you’re thinking about a day trip from Malta to Gozo and want something besides another bus tour…well, this one stuck with me.
