Review of the Valletta to Gozo catamaran and hop-on bus tour, with ferry tips, route limits, price advice, and what to expect.
“Sjovt at se Gozo fra oven. Selve busturen var den største oplevelse, da kørslen var meget spændende og vi blev kastet lidt rundt. Et stop på nordsiden af Gozo aflyst - angiveligt grundet “road-construction”. Færgeturen hjem var en udfordring da de påstod vi kunne havde en enkeltbillet. Retur delen af færgeturen stod kun på dansk - så det var kun grundet virkelig intens insisteren at vi kom hjem uden ekstra pris. Den del var lidt utjekket.”

Explore Malta by North and South hop-on buses plus a 90-minute Grand Harbour cruise, with key stops, practical tips, and honest value advice.
“The North loop bus was great, on time and driver was very friendly. The South loop bus ran late when we were waiting to get on the first time and then left early when we tried to catch it again (causing us to miss it by seconds). The audio tour was somewhat helpful - but many times it was discussing something we couldn’t see. If you want to just drive around the island and get a general overview, it’s a good option. But if you hope to plan your day hopping on and off - the South bus was unreliable and may leave you stranded.”
Review of Malta’s 2-day hop-on hop-off bus and harbour cruise, with route tips, value advice, sights, drawbacks, and booking guidance.
“It's easy to explore the most important sights. But you have to be careful, as there are two providers on the island, so you can't take just any bus. You also have to pay attention to the signs, as the north route buses are not necessarily blue. Unfortunately, the audio guide provided does not work on every bus. They are not the newest. We took full advantage of the offer with a two-day bus tour and a harbor tour on the third day. (Tip: sit on the right side so that the explanations match what you are seeing.)”
Review of the iSeeGozo Day Pass, with ferry travel and Gozo hop-on hop-off bus stops at the Citadel, Ta’ Pinu, and Xlendi Bay.
“This was a very disappointing experience. When we came to Gozo the bus had left and we had to wait for almost an hour to catch the next one. Boarding the bus was more than chaotic and took another 25 minutes. We had to stand and could not use the headphones. The lady giving out the tickets was totally unnerved and not helpful. So when we finally reached Victoria half of our Gozotime was already over. We than decided to skip the ferry ride home at 4 pm because than we had literally seen only one Gozo highlight the Citadella. We drove home with the speedboat ferry and we can…”
Review of Malta’s six-day Heritage Pass, hop-on hop-off buses, harbor cruise, 20+ historic sites, value, and practical drawbacks.
“The bus were never on time up to 45mins late… they only run every hour so you never know when the next bus is coming or if it is coming. The drivers stop for food even though they are late. There is no way to track the buses so you are literally waiting blindly… often you don’t get off at stops because you never know when you are going to get to leave again”
