“I have used this same company all around the world and found them excellent. The Gozo experience proved no different. I had purchased our tickets before leaving home and so had a voucher on my mobile phone. This had proved to be a major problem on Malta, but the drivers on Gozo had no such problems. The buses were on time all day long and the commentary was good. Excellent way to see Gozo.”

Hop-on hop-off buses give you a flexible, audio-guided way to see Gozo’s main towns and sights from Mgarr Harbour.
“Public transit travel on Malta is notoriously slow, so the HOHO buses are a great way to see a lot in a relatively more efficient manner. However, the audio doesn't always work, and goes silent for long stretches of time. I recall there were at least 5-6 stops where there was no commentary at all. The buses were also incredibly packed, even in late April; would have been nice to have more frequent buses. That said, I still thought it was worth it, and still better than taking the local public buses, which are quite unreliable.”
2-hour guided walk from Mdina to Rabat with headset audio and licensed stories, ending at St Paul’s Square for a smart Malta plan.
