Kayak Gozo

Kayak Gozo is proud to offer Malta's best kayaking tours. Experienced and beginner kayakers can enjoy a paddle along the towering cliffs of the west coast, have a snorkel in the Blue Lagoon, snap a selfie while gliding through natural arches, catch a glimpse of flying fish, go rock hopping along Comino Island, and explore caves and bays otherwise inaccessible by land. What are you waiting for?

Probably the best day of my week holiday in Malta. Nice people and good photography. More kayak less boats! Floating right on the sea level is the experience to try. Enjoy it

The island of Gozo is rich in history and natural beauty, resources which, woven in with local customs and traditions, were key factors in creating this new tourist attraction. Being greener, less densely populated and urbanised than Malta, Gozo boasts an idyllic lifestyle that draws inspiration from its unique island setting The visitor experience culminates in a dramatic 360° Cittadella Show, set within an impressive theatrical space created by the high arches of the former water Reservoir.

Reviewed By Mags - Nontron, France

The Citadella visitor centre with its exhibition depicting the history is worth visiting. It is a small exhibition and free to browse. There is a very well done Audio Visual show which is included in a ticket which features 3 or 4 places of interest within The Citadel. It is a very new centre and worth visiting before entering the main Citadel area.

We really enjoyed our sunset tour with Gozo fun. Emmanuele is an excellent instructor and the tour is very well planned. The landscape is beautiful especially the caves and the SUP experience is easier than one might think, though a few splashes are guaranteed Totally recommend.

Had an awesome holiday. We dived wrecks, caves and reefs. The instructors/guides were brilliant, particularly Richard Salter and Alan O Reilly. They explained the history of the site and what marine life we would see. Very helpful and professional. The contact between Diane and our dive centre was brilliant and efficient. Would definitely recommend gozo and St. Andrews divers cove to other divers and centres back home.

Come and explore the beauty that lies within this church. Learn about the history of the church and also about the transfer of another small 17th century church which was on the same site of the modern church today. Take a lift to the Terrace of the Dome to enjoy a panoramic view of the marvelous island of Gozo. "Forget your troubles and admire god's creation" It is simply a must ...

It is our policy that when the weather permits all wine tasting sessions are conducted at the vineyards at Gharb. Further details will be provided once booking is confirmed.

Really enjoyed our visit to Tal-Massar. The place is situated in a quite picturesque area in the Gozitan countryside. The winery and it's owners are very genuine, knowledgeable and kind! The tour consisted of a tour of the vineyards, followed by tasting of their 4 wines with nibbles to compliment the wines. The wines are of very high quality and reasonably priced for the quality, a reflection of the great knowledge and dedication that the owners have.
All 4 of us loved the visit and would love to do it again in the near future. Highly recommended!!
Being Maltese, I really do wish this winery the very best and I'm happy that their great work is finally being recognised and will soon be more widely distributed across the island!

My sister and I initially booked the Combi Tour but decided we wanted to spend a full day in Gozo so switched it to the Full Day Jeep Gozo Tour. The communication prior to the tour was prompt and friendly.
But... the communication during the tour faltered. First, we were picked up 20 mins late (which we understood that picking up people from different locations and traffic can cause delays) but the issue we had was when we were dropped off. The driver told us to go inside the ferry terminal and there will be someone with a sign. We were on the ferry and the entire ride, we were going up and down the boat looking for a guide with the Barbarossa sign. They were not there. They were actually at the final destination port... a heads up would've been appreciated.
We were separated into mini groups for the jeep tour. My sister and I were on the tour with an Italian family who didn't speak English. Our tour guide, Mary, had to split her time translating between English and Italian, which we wouldn't have mind if we received the same time and treatment. Half the time, we were not given any explanation on what we were looking at. And when we asked her to explain what we were looking at (after her spending 10mins with the other family), she rushed her explanation with us and we were hurried back onto the jeep.
The biggest upset was when I asked about the Ggantija Temples (which was ON THEIR ITINERARY). Mary goes it is 10 euros to get in. We both said that is fine. She then proceeded to ask the other 3 jeeps to see if anyone else wanted to do it. I just didn't understand why it was up for discussion when it was ON the itinerary. Then she said maybe we can see the Cathedral instead because more people want to do that and we can't do both. My sister and I didn't want to fight for the temples if everyone else wanted to do the Cathedral so we said that's fine. After a few more discussion with the other tour guide, she came back and said we were going to Citadel instead. So we said, "Are we doing the Cathedral later?" and she replied "no" and then I asked, "ok then the temples?" and she replied "no." My sister said so we're not seeing either? And she goes "No, no one wants to go." Well - we wanted to go. We wanted to see the things that were advertised ON the itinerary. After the tour, we saw the itinerary again and noticed we didn't see other sights that were on their itinerary like the windmills.
The entire tour felt a bit rushed and I don't understand how we would've even seen much of Gozo on the Combi tour. It's a shame because I loved their itinerary and the concept of the tour seemed great. I also think Mary is very knowledgeable and knew a lot about Gozo. I just didn't think it was fair to be the only jeep with a family that didn't speak English and then our time was rushed.
