During this tour, we will cruise along the Northern coast of Malta enjoying the views of St. Paul’s Islands & Mellieha. 

Upon arrival at the sister island of Gozo, we will board a Gozo Sightseeing Bus and we will visit the Capital City Victoria. 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. The Cittadella also called at The Citadel, is on Malta’s tentative list of future World Heritage Sites by UNESCO, who describes it as a small fortified town. An old prison is located within the city, as are the Courts of Justice. Here you will stop for around 75 minutes. 

On the way back to the port we will stop for a few minutes at Qala Belvedere for a fantastic photo opportunity of all three islands. 

In the afternoon, we head to the famous Blue Lagoon where you can spend time exploring the island and swimming in the tranquil turquoise water.
