Gozo Quad Bike Tour & Blue Lagoon Boat: Full Day

Throttle across Gozo's cliffs and hidden bays on a 570cc quad bike, then boat to Comino's Blue Lagoon

You ride a 570cc quad bike across Gozo's coastal and country trails for seven hours, stopping at cliffs, bays, and centuries-old salt pans. A private boat crossing gets you there and back, and a second boat trip takes you to Comino's Blue Lagoon and sea caves. Hotel pickup, traditional lunch, helmets, and insurance are included. Summer departures add a swim stop.

The experience

You're rolling out of your hotel pickup in a Yippee transport van, heading toward the private boat dock. The crossing to Gozo takes you on water reserved just for this group: no crowded ferry, no waiting in line with day-trippers. Once you hit the island, the quad bike is yours: a 570cc ATV that handles the terrain the way a car never could. The tour leader sets the pace across coastal and country trails, and you're not following a paved loop. You're reaching Sanap Cliffs, one of Gozo's highest points, where the views drop down to Malta and Comino in the distance. The cliffs aren't on the hop-on-hop-off circuit because you can't get there by bus.

The day moves through stops that shift with the season. In summer, you get a swim break at one of Gozo's bays. Bring your swimwear. You'll see Xlendi Tower and the Belvedere overlooking the bay, roll past the 16th-century washhouses in Fontana that the Knights of St John built, and hit Dwejra Bay where Fungus Rock rises 60 metres out of a black lagoon. The Inland Sea, a seawater lagoon connected to the Mediterranean through a natural arch, is the kind of place that stops you mid-ride. Ghasri Valley sits at the end of a rugged ravine on the northern coast: accessible by quad bike, hard to reach any other way. You're covering salt pans that have been worked for centuries, stopping at Qbajjar beach and Marsalforn before the boat ride back. The whole quad portion runs seven hours, not counting transfers.

After the riding, you board the return boat to Comino for the Blue Lagoon and the sea caves. The caves stretch over 40 metres through soft limestone, and the water is clear enough that you see the formations underwater. The Crystal Lagoon sits a ten-minute walk from the Blue Lagoon if you want to explore without the crowds. A light traditional Gozitan lunch is included during an extended stop: time to eat, sit, and let your legs settle before the boat ride back to Malta and drop-off at your original pickup point.

Weather matters here. If conditions turn rough, the private boat crossing becomes a communal ferry ticket instead, and you might get upgraded to a self-drive eJeep or a chauffeured Tuk-Tuk or Jeep at no extra cost. Helmets and hairnets are provided. Third-party insurance is built in. Drivers need to be 21 or older and bring an actual driving license: provisional or learning licenses don't work, but if your country has online license verification through an official website, that counts. Children as young as five can ride as passengers.
