The Experience

I’ll be honest — we almost missed the pickup spot because I thought “select locations” meant right outside our door. Turns out it was just around the corner (the driver waved at us from his Jeep, grinning like he’d seen this before). The air smelled faintly salty even before we got to the private boat — no crowds, just a few of us bouncing over the water toward Gozo while seagulls trailed behind. I didn’t expect the ride to feel so quick; suddenly we were there, sun already warming up the stone walls.

Our guide switched between English and Italian without missing a beat — I tried my best Maltese greeting but mostly got smiles in return. First stop was Ggantija Temples. The stones felt rough under my palm (I know you’re not really supposed to touch them but… curiosity). There was a moment when everyone went quiet; you could hear wind moving through dry grass nearby. Then back in the Jeep — every ten minutes or so we’d hop out somewhere new: Citadel’s high ramparts, salt pans glinting like mirrors, and Dwejra Bay where the sea looked almost too blue to be real.

Lunch was three courses at a little place near Ramla Bay. They brought out local cheese that tasted sharper than I expected, plus bread still warm from the oven. Our driver checked if anyone had food allergies (“just tell me if you can’t eat something — no problem”). After that we had time for Marsalforn Bay and Ta’ Pinu Basilica. I remember standing outside Ta’ Pinu watching an old man trace mosaics with his finger as if reading them. That stuck with me for some reason.

The whole day felt like a string of small moments strung together by bumpy roads and laughter — Li laughed when I tried to pronounce “Qala Belvedere” (I definitely butchered it). We finished with another quick boat ride back; sunburnt noses and sand in our shoes. I keep thinking about that silence at Ggantija though… you know?
