The buses are easy to find and stop very close to the sites to be visited. There are lovely views of the countryside and villages. The driver was also good at advising travellers on whether or not they had time to do the tour, so as to be back in time for the ferry. On both itineraries, having taken the 1st bus of the day, we were only able to visit Dwejra, Marsalforn, Ramla and Victoria due to lack of time, so you have to choose carefully what you really want to see. As for the audio commentaries, I can't judge as the system didn't work at our seat. We just enjoyed it with our eyes! A good experience.

Good choice of routes to see some lovely villages. The trip wasn't rushed and there was plenty of time to photograph interesting places

Great way to see a lot of the island of Gozo. Very skillful driving by the employee thro' the very narrow village/town streets. 👏👍

Ticketing experience was easy. However, had difficulties with the pickup point. This was resolved after wasting one hour of my tour time trying to figure out the stop.
