Gozo Jeep Tour

For your memorable Gozo Jeep Tour, you will be picked up from your hotel on the main island of Malta by mini-bus from where you will be driven to the ferry port at Cirkewwa to catch the ferry across to Gozo (30 minutes). In summer (weather permitting) you will cross to Gozo in a powerboat (15 minutes). If you are starting in Gozo, you will be picked up by jeep and driven to the starting point at Mgarr Harbor.

At Mgarr Harbor on Gozo, you will board your soft-top jeep for an exciting tour around the island. An English-speaking guide will accompany you. (Other languages, namely – Dutch, German, Italian, French, Russian & Spanish – are available on request). Your first stop will be a coffee stop (payable direct) at the village of Qala, where you will see beautiful views over the islands of Comino, Cominotto and Malta.

After Qala, you drive through the Simar Valley, to the village of Nadur, and on to Ramla Bay where, weather permitting, you will stop for a swim (35-40 minutes).

You will then go on to Xaghra and stop at the famous Ggantija Temples (entrance payable direct). The two temples were erected during the Neolithic Age (around 3600-2500 BC). One of the Ggantija temples is among the oldest stone structures in the world, predating Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids by hundreds of years.

After this stop, you will pass through Marsalforn Bay and Xwejni Bay and see the Saltpans. Dating from 1740, these are still in use, and produce several tons of sea salt every year.

You will stop for an hour for lunch at a restaurant. Lunch includes a choice of pasta or soup, choice of fish or chicken, and dessert, plus wine, water, tea or coffee. Vegetarian options include pasta, cheese pie or salad.

After lunch you will go to Dwejra. You will see Fungus Rock and hear how it got its name. You will also see the Inland Sea, a salt lake connected to the Mediterranean by a narrow tunnel, and the Azure Window, a scenic rock arch.

Next, you will drive past the island's dramatic limestone quarries and on to Kercem Heights for breathtaking panoramas of Gozo, the sea and Malta.

After enjoying the views, you will proceed to Fontana Cottage for a 30-minute shopping stop. This is your chance to buy some of Gozo's celebrated woolen goods and hand-made lace.

Later, after passing through Xlendi's tourist resorts, you will stop at Sannap Cliffs to enjoy the stunning vistas before driving on to Victoria, Gozo's capital. You will drive up to the Citadel, your last stop before you return to Mgarr to board the ferry to Malta. Arriving back at Cirkewwa, you will find the minibus waiting for you.

At the end of your delightful tour you will be dropped back at your hotel.
