Holiday rentals in Gozo

The crossing from Cirkewwa/Malta to Gozo only takes about 20 minutes and costs a total of just €4.65 per round trip, which is very fair. It is therefore perfect for a day trip from the main island. On Gozo, you can use your Talinja Card for the buses or book a hop on/hop off tourist bus for a day for around €25. However, I didn't find this necessary for me. Unfortunately, the buses are sometimes very full and unpunctual. Victoria is a very beautiful city, but if you've already seen Valletta or Mdina, you'll already be used to the architecture. Nevertheless, the citadel in particular is well worth seeing. You don't need an entrance ticket to walk along the wall or the inner grounds. The pedestrian zone around the Basilica of San Gorg and the church itself also offer a lot to discover and are home to many tourist shops and eateries. Here I ate the local speciality "Rabbit stew", which I can recommend to anyone visiting Gozo. A little off the beaten track, but within easy walking distance, are the beautifully decorated Villa Rundle Gardens, which are great for relaxing and have lots of colourful and well-tended flower beds. The benches here even play music. Very nice. From Victoria, the famous Dwejra Cliffs, where the famous archway was located until a few years ago, can be easily reached in 20 minutes by bus. Here you can hike along the spectacular limestone coast or take a motorboat ride through the winding caves. There is also a good restaurant and two ice cream parlours here. The steep cliffs at Dwejra were definitely a highlight for me. However, the bus only arrives here every hour. Gozo is a great destination for a day trip, but I wouldn't spend a week here.

Victoria/Rabat is very beautiful and can be easily explored on foot. The Basilica of San Gorg and the surrounding market with lots of local shops and restaurants are particularly worth a visit. We also visited the citadel, which is free to visit. The Dwejra Cliffs are easy to reach by bus from Victoria and definitely look spectacular.

The Villa Rundle Gardens are beautifully decorated and the benches play music at the touch of a button! The Milky Way is said to be particularly easy to see at night in Dwejra Bay.

Gozo offers a great mix of very beautiful towns with a mixture of Arabic and Italian architecture and at the same time a lot of nature as well as great nature and views of the surrounding Mediterranean.

Gozo is small enough to make a round trip around the island. You can do it with a HoponHopoff bus or by public transport. There are beautiful cliffs, crystal clear water and you can eat fish in many restaurants. There are also many hiking trails both inland and on the coast. You can enjoy snorkelling, diving and other water sports. The island is connected to its neighbouring islands by ferry and is therefore easy to travel to. There are some products, such as cheese, that are produced here on Gozo.

Hiking, diving, water sports. Cliffs, small towns, nature and agriculture.

Kiosk Pizza Stop in Marsalforn with a good view of the sunset. There are many small bays along the coast, so you don't have to go to the typical tourist beaches.

Diverse, not too many tourists yet. Authentic.
