  • Ggantija Megalithic Temples, Ggantija, Malta
    We start our tour by visiting the megalithic temples of Ġgantija, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1980, this impressive archaeological site dates to c. 3600-2500 BC, along with Ta’ Ħaġrat Temples and Skorba Temples in Malta, the temples of Ġgantija are believed to be the second oldest free-standing monuments on Earth, second only to Göbekli Tepe in Turkey and predating Stonehenge in England, and the Pyramids of Egypt by approximately 1000 years! The etymology of “Ġgantija” is derived from the Maltese word for giant (“Ġgant”) because it was believed the site was built by a race of giants. This mythological idea makes sense considering that the temples are constructed from megaliths (massive limestone blocks) measuring more than five meters in length and weighing over 50 tons.
    45 minutes
  • Victoria, Victoria, Malta
    After visiting the temples of Ġgantija we will proceed to visit Victoria, the delightful capital city of Gozo. Victoria is not just the geographic heart of Gozo; it is also the centre of everyday activity. It manages to combine the bustle of its market and shops with a relaxed and sociable atmosphere. It is a great place to watch the islanders go about their day, especially when the main market square comes to life.
    25 minutes
  • The Citadel, Victoria, Malta
    At the heart of the city lies another majestic site; the medieval fortress known locally as “Iċ-Ċittadella” (The Citadel), with its distinctive skyline and imposing military architecture, this ancient, fortified structure stands out as Gozo’s major landmark, a beacon visible from all over the island. The area has been inhabited since the Bronze Age, and the site now occupied by The Citadel is believed to have been the acropolis of the Punic-Roman city of Gaulos or Glauconis Civitas. During the medieval period, the acropolis was converted into a castle which served as a refuge for Gozo’s population. A suburb began to develop outside its walls by the 15th century, and this area now forms the historic core of Victoria.
    50 minutes
  • Xlendi Bay, Xlendi, Malta
    Our next visit is the delightful sea inlet known as Xlendi Bay, located at the end of a deep, lush ravine, which was once a riverbed and surrounded by picturesque steep cliffs, the bay is now on the must-visit list of most day-trippers to the Island. Xlendi’s small but lively promenade is busy at all times of the day, with a variety of cafes, restaurants, and a handful of souvenir shops. Though seemingly bursting with activity during summer, Xlendi bay remains a refreshingly quiet place even at the height of the season.
    20 minutes
  • Dwejra Bay, San Lawrenz, Malta
    Our last stop is at Dwejra, situated on the western shore of the island of Gozo this area is a geological and ecological haven. All the various surroundings are a blend of geology, landscape, fauna, habitats, shoreline, seascapes, archaeology, flora, and history, which makes a visit to this site an experience to remember. Dwejra is also known for its Inland Sea, a small bay surrounded by high cliffs and connected by an impressive 65-metre-long natural tunnel which opens out into the open sea, a truly fascinating natural formation which evokes awe and leaves a striking impression. Weather permitting you will have the opportunity to take a short boat trip through the narrow tunnel and its surrounding area, this trip is available at a small fee payable on location (the boat trip is not included in your package price).

Our guide Rita was really great, her knowledge of Gozo and Malta was amazing and she delivered it in a really good way. Really enjoyed the temple tour.

Felt like they prioritised quantity over quality, and pushed shopping over everything else. We started off at Ggantija (which we thought would be the highlight) and were told not to read anything as the guide would tell us what we needed to know. Having given us 10mins to look at the exhibits, Regina (our tour guide) walked off with no warning (without telling us our time was up, so left a few of us behind). We only spent what felt like 30mins at a major UNESCO heritage site, which was a major disappointment. 80% of our time was spent on the bus with minimal pointers about things out the window that we could see. She spent more time telling us about the schooling age of children in Gozo, the fact that surgeons only perform 2 operations per year on the island, and taking shots at Maltese people, than actually telling us interesting things! The longest time we spent in a place was at a ‘traditional’ market, which didn’t seem very traditional at all. Lastly, when we got to Independence Square and the citadel, she let us explore ourselves (the first and only time she did so, most of it was following her around and trying desperately to hear what she said) but warned that she would go without us if we weren’t back at exactly 4pm. If you want to cram in everything in 8 hours, this trip is fine. If you want to spend some quality time in places and really try to take it all in, suggest another tour/doing it yourself.

I don’t think I’m being completely fair because a lot has to do with the heat. I went during the heat wave and the temple tour was brutal. I saw some pictures of the temples and they looked covered, they aren’t. The tour was very long considering the heat. We started at the temples then went to see some caves and rushed through the citadel. Lunch was really yummy the tour guide was very nice and knew a lot. I would’ve preferred to go to Gozo on my own and figure out the places I wanted to go to. However maybe my experience would’ve been different if the heat and sun had been better.
