Attended twice in one week simply because the hosts were so respectful and helpful with us. The horses were very well behaved and responsive, even recignised us second time round as we rode the same horses again. Route is great and takes you through the great green fields of Gozo like no car could. Will most definitely attend again first chance we get ????

It is always wonderful to return to Xaghra and we were back here after a year. Sitting in the square at one of the many cafes and restaurants one can soak in the atmosphere of this great church, whose facade dominates the bustling square. The grand pillars are statues of the exterior draw one to look inside and there the magnificence continues with paintings, marble and stained glass. The major attraction of the interior aside from the wonderful altar is the statue of the young Virgin Mary that is brought into the streets at the time of the Xaghra Festa in September each year. This is a church most definitely worth visiting.

Went there in the summer, Victor is so lovely, tells you the story of all the animals. He provides them with such a wonderful loving environment where they are really understood and valued, their needs are met, and they're not expected to serve the ideals of human vanity. The horses are happy in his care, and the other volunteers. You really shouldn't miss this if you're in Gozo.

Ta' Kola Windmill in Xaghra, Gozo, is one of the few surviving windmills on the Maltese Islands dating back to the Knights' Period. Its origins go back to 1725 during the magistracy of Grand Master Manoel de Vilhena (1722-36). Nowadays, the windmill houses one of the largest known collections of tools, some of which were manufactured by the last miller who lived inside the mill. The site offers a glimpse into the traditional rural life of the locals during the past centuries.

We had a ticket for this and Ggantija and nearly did not come to the mill but it is a great little museum and well worth visiting. Lots of interesting tools and history, including a short history of food production in the region.

A must to visit while on holiday in Gozo. The red sandy beach is very clean and easy to get there with a bus. Make sure to wear a shoes or sandals when walking on the sand as it will be very hot and not easy walking bare foot. You can buy these shoes that you can also swim with cause even when you go in the water you find lots of pebbles and its easily to hurt your feet so if you wear a proper shoes it makes it more easy to go in the water. Before you go back home, don't forget to stop at the truck just outside on the street that sells different types of ice creams and flavours to slush and cold drinks. The ice creams are to die for from the Ferrero Rocher to Nutella, to Oreo, to what you can imagine. And while you are there also try to visit the Calypso cave which is very near and you can admire the view of the bay from the cave. I recommend it to everyone even with kids
