What people are saying about Xlendi

I had a great time on this cruise. We got going on time. Throughout the trip there were announcements as to the history of what we were seeing in multiple languages. I especially enjoyed seeing the Comino Caves and the Blue Lagoon. We had about an hour stay at the Lagoon. When we arrived at Gozo we were bussed to Victoria, where we had about two hours before we were picked up and brought back to the harbour. Drinks were available on the boat throughout and were resonably priced. All in all a great experience and excellent value for money.

My partner and I booked this excursion. It was a really great day! The journey to the meeting point was good, we found the boat quickly and everything went smoothly at "Check In". In the meantime we have received all the important information about the process. Due to the strong wind that day we couldn't swim at the Blue Grotto but we stopped at another spot at Camino. The crew made everything possible ☺️

Great, it was really nice, the landscapes are beautiful but the only downside is that during the stop in Gozo to go to the city you can't get there on foot.

Excellent organization. I do not recommend reservations on Sundays as it is full for islanders and excursions

Lovely trip. Perfect to sit on the top deck soaking up the sun before exploring the islands.
