The experience
You arrive in Malta and head to the pickup point for a boat crossing to Gozo on a Yippee boat. Once there, you climb into your own buggy and follow an experienced guide across the island's on-road and off-road terrain. The convoy moves through Gozo's coastal routes and lush country trails, passing Ta' Ċenċ Cliffs (the tallest in Gozo at 150 metres), and the dramatic gorge of Wied l-Għasri Valley. You'll see the centuries-old salt pans, Xlendi Bay's rocky coves, and stop at Dwejra to view Fungus Rock and the Inland Sea, a lagoon connected to the Mediterranean through a natural arch.
Midway through the day, the convoy halts for an extended break where you eat a picnic, rest and recharge before heading back out. The return journey shifts from buggy to boat: you board a Yippee boat that sails around Comino's sea caves and the Blue Lagoon. In summer, you stop for a swim in the lagoon's clear water. In winter, weather permitting, you view it from the boat. The boat then returns you to your pickup point in Malta.
Buggies come third-party insured, fueled and ready to drive. You'll get a helmet, hairnet and raincoat if needed. The guide speaks English, French or Arabic depending on your option. Pickup and drop-off happen at your closest point in Malta or Gozo, so the logistics of getting to the start are already arranged.

Is this one for you?Choose the solo driver option if you want full control of the buggy and the freedom to set your own pace within the convoy. Pick the shared option if you'd rather split the cost and take turns driving with a partner or friend. Either way, you're operating the vehicle yourself instead of sitting as a passenger, which is what sets this apart from a standard sightseeing tour.
