“The best part is being able to be on a comfortable boat with lounge chairs to nap and soak up some sun in between stops. It’s quite amazing and this boat looked much much better and relaxing than the others moored in the stops. I’d highly recommend this for a day out in Malta. The…”

“Nothing wrong with the boat trip - it was fine. Not much to do in Gozo if you’re only visiting for three hours though - an open top bus trip was a bit of a rip-off for 20 euros each, we could have taken an uber for half the price. As for Comino and the…”

Catamaran cruise to Gozo and Comino with Blue Lagoon swimming, Crystal Lagoon photo stops, Victoria’s Citadel, and cave sights.
“The trip is good but getting off at Gozo island to see Victoria and taking a bus there is a MISTAKE! There’s nothing in that city, I had a few hours to eat, that’s it! If you’re hungry it’s a good one to stop by and eat, but I’d rather stay in the blue lagoon.”
Every archipelago, and the best of each island in it.
