After a twenty-minute crossing, on setting foot in Gozo you will note that although both
islands are similar in history and development,
Gozo has a character entirely of its own. Gozo,
which is a three-hilled island, is greener and
more picturesque than Malta.
During this tour you will visit The National
Shrine of the Blessed Virgin of Ta’ Pinu which is
a Roman Catholic basilica and national shrine located 700 metres from
the village of Gharb. The basilica is located in the edge of a cliff in open
countryside which allows visitors to enjoy beautiful views of the area.
You will visit also a picturesque Gozitan Town with a beautiful square,
church & traditonal houses. You will then visit Dwejra Bay where you
could see until 8th March 2017, a natural arch featuring a table-like
rock over the sea. Here, you will also see The Inland Sea & il-Gebla tal-
General. If weather permits, you can also purchase a short boat ride. A
visit to a Crafts Shop is a must. At this shop you will see stone works,
marble, traditional food, local lace and many other items. This is the
perfect place where you can buy a souvenir which will remind you of
Gozo. You will then visit Victoria which is the capital of Gozo. 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. After this
visit you will stop for lunch in a restaurant in Rabat.
Finally you will drive to Mgarr Port via Qala Belvedere where breathtaking
scenes can be enjoyed. You will then have a short ferry crossing
back to Malta and will be dropped-off at your hotel or nearest point.
