This full-day experience combines village backroads, coastal viewpoints, landmark stops, and an afternoon Comino mini cruise, so you see far more than you could on a standard coach tour. With hotel pick-up, lunch, and all land and sea transfers included, it’s a simple way to cover a lot of ground without worrying about logistics or navigation. Key Details 🚙 Duration: 8 hours Vehicle capacity: Up to 5 forward-facing passengers per UTV Main areas visited: Sanap Cliffs, Xlendi (passing), Fontana washhouses, The Citadel, Xagħra, Dwejra Bay, Ta’ Pinu (passing), Xwejni salt pans, Marsalforn (passing) Bonus element: Comino mini cruise with Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, Comino sea caves and seasonal swim stop (weather permitting) Pick-up: Included from selected hotels and meeting points across Malta Gozo guests: Tour starts/ends in Gozo; Comino mini cruise included, but return from berth to accommodation is self-arranged What to Expect 🧭 Your day starts with a morning pick-up from your hotel or nearest meeting point on Malta and a short transfer to the departure point for the Gozo crossing. Depending on sea conditions, you’ll travel by private boat reserved for guests or via the Gozo Channel Ferry, with tickets included either way. On arrival in Gozo, you’ll meet your driver and board your 4x4 UTV, joining a small convoy led by multilingual tour leaders. Each vehicle seats up to five guests, so you travel in comfort while your driver handles all the narrow lanes, backroads, and hill climbs. The land itinerary links together many of Gozo’s highlights while still using country routes and coastal roads where possible. Typical stops include Sanap Cliffs for wide sea views, Xlendi Bay and cliffs (viewed as you pass), the historic Knight’s washhouses at Fontana, and Victoria’s Citadel, where you can explore the fortified hilltop and its lanes. In Xagħra you have the option to enter the Ġgantija Temples (ticket extra) for those who want a deeper dive into Gozo’s prehistoric past. Later, you continue to Dwejra Bay to see the Inland Sea and coastal formations, with an optional small boat trip inside the bay (extra fee, weather dependent). The route also passes key landmarks such as the Ta’ Pinu Basilica, Xwejni salt pans, and coastal areas around Qbajjar and Marsalforn. A light lunch with a glass of… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Chauffeur-driven full-day 4x4 UTV tour on Gozo Experienced multilingual storytellers acting as tour leaders at stops Pick-up and drop-off from selected hotels or nearby meeting points in Malta Light lunch including a glass of local wine or mineral water Crossing to Gozo by private boat reserved for guests (when conditions allow) Return crossing by private boat or scheduled ferry (tickets included when needed) Comino mini cruise around Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, and Comino sea caves (weather permitting) Seasonal swim stop at a Comino lagoon or Gozo bay (weather and sea conditions permitting) ### What’s not included Admission ticket to Ġgantija Temples (optional visit, payable on site) Optional boat trip at Dwejra Bay (payable on site, weather dependent) Extra beverages consumed during lunch beyond the included drink Lunch for infants under 3 years old Tips and gratuities Personal travel insurance and any personal equipment ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### How does the hotel pick-up and drop-off work? Pick-up is included from selected hotels and central meeting points across Malta, so you do not need to make your own way to the ferry or jetty. The time shown on your ticket is the approximate start of the tour, not your pick-up time. A few days before your tour, you must contact the operator with your booking reference so they can confirm your exact pick-up point and time, usually between 8:00 and 9:20 depending on your location. At the end of the day, you will be dropped back at the same place where you were collected in the morning. The transfers are done by minivans that link with the private boat or Gozo Channel Ferry used for the crossing. Guests who live in Gozo follow a slightly different pattern: they are collected on Gozo, join the main land tour, and then make their own way from the docking point at the end of the Comino mini cruise back to their accommodation. ### What is a 4x4 UTV and how comfortable is it? A UTV (Utility Task Vehicle) is a side-by-side off-road vehicle with forward-facing seats, seat belts, and a more car-like driving position than quad bikes or standard jeeps. For this tour, each 4x4 UTV is fully chauffeur-driven, so you and your group sit back while the driver handles all roads and tracks. Vehicles are configured to carry up to five passengers per unit, giving a more intimate feel than large buses and allowing access to narrower village streets and countryside lanes. Comfort levels are good for this style of tour, but you should expect some vibration and movement when travelling over rougher sections of road or track – that is part of the appeal of using UTVs to reach viewpoints and backroads. Seats are forward-facing and equipped with belts, and the convoy moves at a pace that balances safety and sightseeing. If you have back or neck issues, it is worth considering whether periods of bumpy travel are suitable for you. ### How much walking is involved and is the tour suitable for all fitness levels? Most of the day is spent riding in the UTVs, with short to moderate walks at the main stops. Typical walking sections include exploring the Citadel in Victoria, moving between viewpoints, and walking short distances to salt pans, coastal lookouts, or village sites. Terrain can be uneven in places, so you should be confident walking on pavements, cobbles, and basic countryside paths. The tour is graded easy because there are no technical hikes or long sustained climbs, but it is not completely sedentary. Guests with basic mobility who can step in and out of vehicles and boats unaided usually find it very manageable. It is not recommended for those with significant mobility impairments or anyone who relies on a wheelchair, as the UTVs and boats are not adapted for assisted access and some viewpoints involve steps or slopes. ### What exactly is included in the Comino mini cruise and swim stop? The Comino mini cruise is a bonus element added on to the Gozo land tour and is run by a private boat reserved for guests, when weather and sea conditions allow. The route normally passes the Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, and the Comino sea caves, giving you a good overview of the island’s coastline from the water. Because this section is complimentary, it is not refunded or replaced if conditions mean it cannot run on the day. During the main summer season (roughly April to October), the schedule usually includes a swim stop of about 30 minutes in one of Comino’s lagoons, provided conditions are safe. If sea state or wind make Comino unsuitable, the swim stop may be moved to a sheltered bay in Gozo instead. Swim time is always at the skipper’s discretion, and you should bring swimwear and a towel if you want to make use of this part of the day. ### What is included in the light lunch and can you cater for dietary needs? A light lunch is included in the tour price for all paying guests, and it comes with a glass of local wine or mineral water as standard. The exact menu can vary but you can expect a simple meal that is easy to serve to a mixed group during the daytime schedule, rather than a long restaurant sit-down. This keeps the day moving while still giving you a proper break and a chance to refuel. Infants under 3 years are not included in the lunch allocation, so parents may want to bring suitable food for very young children. If you have specific dietary requirements or allergies, it is best to inform the organiser at the time of booking and again a few days before departure so they can advise what is possible. Carrying a small supply of snacks that fit your diet is sensible, particularly if you follow a more restricted eating pattern. ### Are the Ġgantija Temples and Dwejra boat trip included? The temples at Ġgantija and the boat trip at Dwejra Bay are optional add-ons and not included in the base tour price. At Ġgantija, you will have free time to either visit the UNESCO-listed temple complex by buying a ticket on site or use the time for a short wander and photos in the surrounding area. The admission cost is usually around €10 per person but can change without notice, so it is wise to carry some extra cash. At Dwejra, the Inland Sea boat ride is another optional experience run by local operators and is only possible when sea conditions are safe. The approximate fee is €6 per person, paid directly to the boat provider on the day. Choosing either or both of these options will not affect your ability to follow the main land itinerary, as the schedule is built to allow for flexibility at these key stops. ### Is this tour suitable for children and families? Families often enjoy this tour because the UTVs, varied stops, and boat element keep the day feeling active and engaging. Children tend to like the mix of villages, cliffs, bays, and the short Comino cruise, and there are frequent opportunities to get out of the vehicles for photos and short walks. Foldable strollers are allowed, which helps with younger children when off the UTVs, although they cannot always be used on every surface. The main considerations for families are length of day and tolerance for vehicle time. With transfers, crossings, land touring, lunch, and the mini cruise, you can expect a full eight hours from pick-up to drop-off. Children should be comfortable with being in vehicles for stretches of time and able to follow basic safety instructions, such as keeping seat belts fastened and staying seated while the UTV is moving. Bringing extra water, snacks, and sun protection for younger guests is highly recommended. ### What should I wear and bring with me? Comfortable clothes suitable for the forecast are essential, as you will be moving between shaded villages, exposed viewpoints, and boats. In warmer months, light, breathable layers, a hat, sunglasses, and high-factor sunscreen are strongly recommended. In cooler or windier conditions, a light jacket or fleece will make cliff-top and boat sections more comfortable, and an umbrella or waterproof layer can be useful if rain is expected. Footwear should be closed-toe and supportive – trainers or walking shoes with decent grip work well. Flip-flops are not advised for the UTV sections or for uneven ground. You should also bring swimwear, a towel, and a small bag if you want to join the swim stop, plus some cash for optional extras, drinks, and entrance fees. A power bank and secure way to carry phones and cameras are useful for a full touring day. ### How do languages work with the multilingual tour leaders? The tour is run with multilingual tour leaders who act as storytellers at the key stops, rather than relying on a single language. When you book, you select your preferred language, and the team ensures you have access to a leader who can provide explanations in that language at viewpoints and major sites. This makes it easier to understand the context of what you are seeing, even in a mixed group. While driving between stops, the default language used over the vehicle radios or speakers may be English so that instructions and timings are clear to everyone. At each stop, however, you are free to approach the tour leader speaking your chosen language for more detailed information or for follow-up questions. This structure keeps logistics simple on the move while still providing tailored explanations when you are off the vehicles. ### What happens if the weather is poor or the sea is rough? Weather and sea conditions can affect several parts of the day, especially the private boat crossings, the Comino mini cruise, the Dwejra optional boat trip, and any swim stops. If conditions make private crossings unsafe or impractical, the tour will switch to the Gozo Channel Ferry, with tickets provided, and the land itinerary in Gozo will proceed as planned where possible. The operator has flexibility to adjust timings or re-order stops to match the day’s conditions. If the Comino mini cruise cannot run due to weather or sea state, it will normally be cancelled for safety reasons and the tour will focus on the Gozo land element. Because the cruise is offered as complimentary added value, there is no refund if this part is not possible. Swim stops are also subject to conditions; if Comino is not suitable, they may be moved to a sheltered bay in Gozo, or skipped entirely if the sea is clearly unsafe. In all cases, safety takes priority over sticking rigidly to the published plan. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot-2025-11-28-at-14.00.10.png - **Gallery image count**: 7 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
