From Malta: Gozo Jeep Tour with Lunch and Transfers

4.6 (1,215 verified reviews)

About This Experience

This is the trip most first-time visitors to Gozo end up booking, and the reason is logistics rather than glamour. A driver collects you from your hotel in Malta, handles the crossing, drives the island loop and gets you home. You are a passenger for the whole day, which on an island where the bus network thins out sharply outside Victoria is worth more than it sounds.

On Gozo you transfer into an open jeep with an experienced driver who doubles as your commentator, and the day works its way around the island's set pieces: the Citadel above Victoria, Ta' Pinu, the salt pans at Xwejni, Dwejra and Ramla Bay. Additional explanation is offered at each stop in the language you booked, and the group is small enough that questions get answered rather than broadcast.

Lunch is included and comes with local wine and mineral water. Between roughly May and September the day also carries a swim stop at Comino, and the return leg is by boat past the Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon and the sea caves instead of the car ferry. Both of those are weather-dependent and the operator says so plainly; treat them as a bonus you are likely to get rather than the reason you are booking.

What Travelers Say

Rated 4.6/5 by 1,215 verified GetYourGuide travelers.

This was an amazing one-day trip of Gozo island. The buggies were a novel way of traveling throughout the island, a very memorable and different experience compared to just taking cabs or busses between cities. I recommend putting on swimwear for the trip as there are places where swimming I possible. Lastly, a very special thank you to our driver, Peter, who made our day very special. He was very knowledgeable, took great care of us; overall, just an absolute legend.

Our day trip was amazing and a highlight of our 5 days in Malta. Ian was a great tour guide and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and looked after. Thank you for an incredible day.

Michele was our guide, and we had such a wonderful experience! She was incredibly friendly, fun to talk to, and taught us so much. We loved her different approach, which allowed us to learn about local people, their habits, daily lives, and the history of the place. We had a lot of fun and came away with so much more than we expected. It was a truly memorable experience, and we would absolutely recommend it to everyone!

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Gozo jeep tour include hotel pickup in Malta?

Yes. Pickup and drop-off are included from selected hotels and nearby meeting points across Malta. The time shown on your ticket is the approximate activity start time, not your pickup time — the operator confirms the actual pickup a few days before your date, so keep an eye on your email.

Is lunch included on the Gozo jeep tour?

Lunch is included, with a glass of local wine and mineral water. Any extra drinks you order are paid on the day. If you have dietary requirements, tell the operator when you book rather than on the morning.

Are the Ggantija Temples included?

No. Entry to the Ggantija Temples is an optional extra paid on site, and you are given free time to visit if you want to. The optional boat trip at the Dwejra Inland Sea is the same arrangement.

Will we swim at Comino?

The Comino swim stop runs in the summer and shoulder season only, and it depends on weather and sea conditions on the day. The same applies to the boat return past the Blue Lagoon — if the sea is against it, you come back on the Gozo Channel ferry instead.

Is this tour suitable for everyone?

The operator does not recommend it for pregnant travellers, people with back problems or mobility impairments, wheelchair users, or babies under one year. The jeep stops at each viewpoint and there are no long walks, but the vehicle itself is open and the roads are rough in places.
