Nice day out - Nice trip to Gozo and Comino, although unfortunately it was a very windy day and the crossing was very rough we did arrive safely and enjoyed the day out at both islands.

Great tour with great crew - We had a fantastic time today on this tour. Captain and all the crew were very friendly and helpful throughout. Bus link on Gozo was very useful too. Got to see loads of the sights and was kept well informed throughout by the captain what we could see along the route. If your looking for a tour we thought this was great value for money

An eventful and scenic day trip - Had decided to visit gozo and this was a good choice, not a lot to see at xendil Bay and an hour and half stop with seeing the citadel in Victoria and gra an ice cream and a small park nearby.. Some lovely views and experience at the blue lagoon and surprisingly so many food and drink stalls/vans there. U can do a walk to a watch tower which if flag is flying will be open and then the sights of passing and going inside some caves makes a good finish to the trip

Some good parts but wouldn’t recommend - Enjoyed some elements of the trip, great boat and commentary. However there was no ‘Guided bus tour of Gozo’ (as stated in the overview). I’ve screenshotted this as noticed other reviewers had this claim disputed when it is clearly in the Viator overview. We enjoyed Gozo but this tour really doesn’t allow much time to explore the city, more of a whistle stop tour. Whilst Blue Lagoon is pretty it was really touristy. This was in March so at the height of summer I imagine it’s even more crowded! There wasn’t room to relax on the beach and we saw lots of jelly fish so were not too keen on swimming. One of the best elements of the trip was passing by the caves on the way back. A thing to note is the water was quite choppy on the way out to Gozo, lots of people sea sick around us. Overall, I wish we’d just done a tour to Gozo and given the touristy Blue Lagoon a miss.

Good trip, but wouldn't go again - The boat on the way to and from the mainland was rather slow, but did provide commentary about where we were passing which was good and very informative. The boat then stopped at Gozo and we got on a bus tour - the Viator description says this is 'guided' (as per screenshot), but this is not guided. It stops once for 10 minutes to take photos and then again in Victoria where you are left to wander yourself (but told that old town was one way and citadel another) for approximately an hour and half. Betime we had lunch and a little walk it was time to go back to the bus - more time in Gozo would have been great to explore. We then got back on the boat to the Blue Lagoon. We stayed here for an hour, but it was very crowded (we could not sit on the beach or relax due to the number of other visitors) and the waters were full with jellyfish. We felt the extra time would have been better spent in Gozo rather than Blue Lagoon - although, it was pretty to see! We also sailed up to the caves and saw some kayakers which was really good and again the boat commentary was good and informative about the elephants head rock! Definitely would have been better to have had more time in Gozo, and an actual guided tour of it. Also, a red boat often over took ours and also stopped elsewhere but still made it back before our boat - other passengers also commented on this too. It was also good that the Captain stated that the water was going to be rough to allow for others to prepare for any sea sickness if required. Staff were also helpful regarding helping passengers off and on to the boat if required. The boat was also good because it had an underwater viewing windows - which was cool to see the fish. If I went again, I would just go straight to Gozo and spend more time on that island. It would be great if the boat left earlier to allow for more time on this trip.
