Gozo & Ggantija Temples


Take a step back…relax…enjoy the breathtaking panoramas, and admire the history of Malta's sister island Gozo.

A short and panoramic ferry crossing will take you to the Island of Calypso, on the way, enjoying a mesmerizing scene of crystal blue waters, the Blue Lagoon, and an array of caves and sea inlets, spotted with the many crafts making way between the Maltese Islands.

The first thing you'll get to visit in the tranquil island of Gozo are the famous pre-historical colossal Ggantija Temples, built by a female giant 5,000 years ago.

After enjoying a glorious panorama over a wide sweep of the Gozo fields, valleys and hills, you will depart for the Citadel in Rabat. At one time protecting the entire population of Gozo within its walls, the giant bastion of the Citadel dominates central Gozo, and contains a beautifully maintained cathedral and museum, the Knights' own conventual church in Gozo, on two occasions serving as the venue for the sumptuous investitures of the Grand Masters.

After lunch you will visit one of the most natural spectacles of Gozo, that of the Dwejra seascapes. The most popular attraction at Dwejra is the Azure Window, a monumental limestone archway created by thousands of years of sea erosion, a mecca for photographers and scuba divers.

Before taking the ferry back to Malta, you will finish your visit to Gozo by visiting the Xlendi Bay, a haunt for artists and photographers, and lovers of the sea.
