Itinerary
- Ggantija is a remarkable prehistoric temple complex on the island of Gozo, Malta. Dating back over 5,500 years, it is one of the oldest free-standing structures in the world, even older than the pyramids. The site features two massive temples built with enormous limestone blocks, showcasing the impressive engineering skills of Malta’s Neolithic inhabitants. Today, Ggantija is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a key highlight of Malta’s ancient history. (45 min) Admission included
- Victoria, also known as Rabat, is the vibrant capital of Gozo. At its heart stands the impressive Citadel, offering panoramic views of the island and a glimpse into Gozo’s long history. The town is filled with charming streets, traditional shops, cafés, and lively local markets, making it a central hub of culture and daily life on the island. (25 min)
- The Citadel is a fortified hilltop complex in the heart of Victoria (Rabat) on Gozo. Dating back to medieval times—with even earlier roots—it offers stunning panoramic views of the island. Within its walls, you’ll find historic buildings, narrow winding streets, small museums, and the impressive Cathedral of the Assumption. It's one of Gozo’s most iconic landmarks and a must-see for history and culture lovers. (50 min)
- Xlendi Bay is a picturesque coastal inlet on Gozo, known for its turquoise waters, dramatic cliffs, and relaxed seaside atmosphere. Popular for swimming, snorkeling, and sunset views, it’s a charming spot with waterfront restaurants and a peaceful, scenic setting. (20 min)
- Dwejra Bay, located on Gozo’s west coast, is famous for its dramatic coastal scenery and unique geological formations. Once home to the iconic Azure Window, the area still features the Inland Sea, Fungus Rock, and clear waters ideal for swimming, diving, and exploring nature. It’s a must-visit spot for stunning landscapes and natural beauty. (45 min) Admission included
