The experience

The tour moves through Gozo's landmarks in a modern air-conditioned vehicle, starting from a pickup point you confirm the day before. Your driver is local and familiar with the island, so they recommend the best photo opportunities and decide how long to spend at each stop, whether that's a swim at Ramla Bay's red sand, a walk through the Xlendi fishing village and up to its watchtower, or time inside the Ġgantija Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage site of Neolithic stone structures. The route also takes in Dwejra, where you can see the Blue Hole diving site and Fungus Rock from the tower, and Wied il-Mielah valley, where a stairway leads down to a natural limestone arch.

Two major religious and architectural stops anchor the day: the Rotunda of Xewkija, a 20th-century church with a dome you can reach by lift to see views across Gozo and toward Malta, and the shrine of Our Lady of Ta' Pinu, where Pope John Paul II and Pope Francis have visited. The Xwejni Salt Pans offer a glimpse of traditional salt harvesting, and Cittadella (the ancient fortified city visible from across the island) holds military architecture and rare plant species within its walls. Xerri's Grotto, shaped by stalagmites and stalactites, and Tal-Mixta Cave, perched above Ramla Bay, round out the underground and coastal experiences.

WiFi is available on board, and the vehicle is equipped for infants and small children, including specialized seats if needed. Drop-off can be adjusted on the day depending on where you want to end, so the tour adapts to your schedule rather than forcing you into a fixed return time.

Can I swim during the full-day Gozo tour?

Yes. Ramla Bay, a red sandy beach on the north-east coast, is included in the itinerary and is ideal for swimming, snorkeling or relaxing. Your driver allocates time there and can recommend other water spots like the calm Inland Sea at Dwejra depending on conditions and your preference.

The Rotunda of Xewkija is a monumental church completed in 1971 with a distinctive dome visible across the island. You can visit the Sculpture Museum, which houses remnants of the old church, and take a lift up to the dome for panoramic views of Gozo and toward Malta.

Lunch is not included in the tour price. Your driver will recommend stops and can suggest places to eat, but you arrange and pay for meals separately.

How does pickup work for this private tour?

You confirm your pickup location anywhere in Gozo 24 hours before the tour starts. The driver collects you from that point and discusses your drop-off location on the day, so the tour can end wherever suits your schedule.
