After a twenty minute crossing, on setting foot in Gozo you will note that although both islands are similar in history and development, Gozo has a character entirely of its own. Gozo, which is a three hilled island, is greener and more picturesque than Malta.

During this tour you will visit The National Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of Ta' Pinu which is a Roman Catholic basilica and national shrine located 700 metres from the village of Gharb. You will then visit The Azure Window, a natural arch featuring a table-like rock over the sea. It is situated near two other famous landmarks - The Inland Sea & Dwejra Bay. A visit to the Crafts Centre is a must. There you will see stone works, marble, traditional food, local lace and many other items.

You will then visit Victoria which is the capital of Gozo. Victoria is the name given in 1897 by the British government on the occasion of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, at the request of the Bishop of Malta, Mons. Sir Pietro Pace. However Gozitans still often refer to it by its old name, Rabat. The area around Victoria, situated on a hill near the centre of the island has been settled since Neolithic times. In the centre of Victoria lies The Cittadella, a historic fortified city.

Finally you will drive to Mgarr Port via Qala Belveder where breath-taking scenes can be enjoyed. You will then have a short ferry crossing back to Malta and will be dropped off at your hotel.
