From Malta: Gozo Full-Day Tour with Guide, Temples, & Train


About This Experience
A licensed-guide day on Gozo with the Ggantija ticket already in the price, pitched a little cheaper than the lunch-inclusive coach tours because lunch is not included — you get free time in Rabat to eat where you like instead, which suits anyone who would rather not be handed a fixed menu.
The route covers the Ggantija Temples, the Citadella in the heart of Victoria with its old prison inside the walls, Ta' Pinu Basilica near Gharb, and Dwejra. It finishes by driving to Mgarr port via Qala Belvedere. The trackless train up to the Victoria centre is included, which is a small thing that saves a steep walk at the point in the day when people are flagging.
One honest note the operator makes itself: Dwejra is described as the place where the Azure Window once stood. The arch collapsed into the sea in a storm in March 2017. The site is still worth the stop for the Inland Sea and the cliffs, but do not go expecting the photograph.

What Travelers Say
Rated 4.2/5 by 648 verified GetYourGuide travelers.
Guide was excellent and the trip was very good value for money. Transport was good air conditioned bus which was always on time. Could have spent more time at the church in Gozo and in Victoria that was a bit rushed. Overall I would recommend this trip it was very informative and good value for money.

The day trip was really good! It was a VERY hot day which did cause some struggle with the aircon on the buses not being fabulous. There was a couple on our trip that were told there wasn’t too much walking and they really struggled because they had sticks to help them walk and kept getting left at the back of the pack missing the first bits of information being told at each location because they couldn’t get there quick enough. However, the trip was very good and very informative! The guide was great.

Well planned and lots of thought given to the heat and differently-abled passengers. Our guide, Michael, was especially terrific. THANK YOU!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Ggantija Temples ticket included?
Yes. The Ggantija entry ticket, the Gozo ferry ticket, a licensed guide and the trackless train ride to Victoria are all included in the fare.
Is lunch included?
No. You get free time in Rabat for those who want lunch, and you pay for it yourself. That is part of why this tour is cheaper than the lunch-inclusive coach excursions.
Can I still see the Azure Window at Dwejra?
No. The Azure Window collapsed into the sea during a storm in March 2017 and the operator's own description refers to it in the past tense. Dwejra is still visited for the Inland Sea and the cliffs.
Is there a dress code?
Yes, at Ta' Pinu Basilica. You are asked to cover your arms and avoid shorts or short skirts. Carry a light layer if you are visiting in summer.
What is the trackless train?
A road train that runs up to the Victoria centre, included in your ticket. It saves the climb from the drop-off point and is a genuine convenience on a full-day itinerary.
