Malta: Gozo & Comino Islands, Blue Lagoon & Seacaves Tour - Crystal Lagoon Photo Cruise: Stunning Views Without the Swim Stop

1.Gozo & Comino Islands, Blue Lagoon & Seacaves Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 15,672 reviews · 7 hours · from $28Our pick

Bugibba catamaran to Gozo and Comino, with Blue Lagoon swimming, Crystal Lagoon photos, sea caves, and a waterslide in about 7 hours.

“This is the tour I rave about to everyone that asks me how Malta was. Everything was done so well on this tour. They let us know from the beginning that there would be adjustments due to the weather, as well as at the Blue Lagoon. They made sure we still got the full experience! The bus ride to Victoria was also very well organised and my time there was also very well spent. Would definitely want to do this tour again when swimming is a possibility.”

“Definitely a must do when in Malta! Try and get there 45-1hr earlier then suggested time if you are wanting a good seat at the front of the boat or in the sun! I wouldn’t recommend doing the add on speed boat tour as you go to the exact same spot on the 2nd stop of the tour.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 4,408 reviews · 8 hours · from $94

Full-day Gozo UTV tour from Malta with ferry, lunch, swim stop, and a return boat ride past the Blue Lagoon and Comino caves.

“Excellent day touring Gozo with our tour guide, Ben. The numerous UTVs offer a small group tour experience (4-6/UTV) instead of the big bud experience. We were able to ‘customise’ the tour by staying longer or shortening the stops depending upon our small group’s preference. Lunch was great and our time was well used. Plan for 8+ hours as we returned to Malta by bus closer to 9-9.5 total hours.”

Malta National Aquarium in St Paul’s Bay: walk-through tunnel, 51 tanks, 250+ species, and conservation-focused displays inside a starfish-shaped shell.

“It’s brilliant ! The aquarium is underground with lots to see, there’s also a small ride that ‘takes’ you in a crashing submarine to the bottom of the ocean. Then upstairs is an amazing restaurant, a crazy cute gift shop and above that is a local Malta history floor with artefacts found from the sea.”

“Our tour guide, John, was very friendly & extremley knowledgeable. His clear love of History, shone through the tour both in his enthusiastic delivery & in depth knowledge of each location we visited, and made the tour truly exceptional. (John you really should write a book!) The ferry crossing was smooth, lasting approx 25 mins & during the crossing we passed by the blue grotto - beautiful! The capital of Gozo, Victoria, was oldie worldly with curved narrow streets that led back to the main square. We learnt about the brave resilience shown by the people & the island of Gozo during WW2 and why August the 15th for the…”
