Reasons Why Tours of Gozo Should be a Part of Your Itinerary
If
you are visiting Malta, tours of Gozo should never be missed in your
itinerary. Gozo is a small island right next to mainland Malta. It
is comparably similar to Malta in many ways, as far as scenic spots
are concerned. However, Gozo offers simplicity, tranquillity and
quiet that Malta can not. Hence, tours of Gozo are usually more laid
back as you experience the beauty and stillness of the countryside.
Tours of Gozo can be your escape from the hustle and bustle of
Malta. It is very accessible from the mainland and will surely be a
trip you will never forget. Gozo is just about a 20-minute ferry
ride from Malta. This short distance makes it very easy to explore
for a day (or even half) if you are out of time. Tours of Gozo range
from a few hours to one whole day, depending on how much of the
island you would like to experience.
The locals of Gozo thrive on agriculture and fishing, so you will
see their small villages dotting the island. Standing along with a
number of majestic architectural spots are their farmhouses made of
limestone, rolling hills surrounded by the Mediterranean azure
waters.
Tours to Gozo offers tranquillity that can be found rarely nowadays.
The area itself exudes peacefulness that is unexplainable, but can
only be cherished by those who experience it. With its beauty lies
deep traditions and roots that you will surely appreciate. Some of
the must see sites include the Ggantija Temples, which is one of the
most impressive of all the ruins in Malta. It is home to the first
settlers, and is considered as the oldest human structure to exist
in the whole world. Moving forward, you can take a look at the
majestic church of Ta-Pinu, where many people attest to be
miraculous. You may just make your very own miracle come true.
As you approach Gozo, it is easy to see how this island is much
greener than the rest of Malta. What lies with these greeneries are
the quaint village which characterizes Gozo. Take the time to mingle
with the locals and experience their old traditions - visit the
Fontana and witness how the local wash their clothes on this washing
hole as locals has hundreds of years ago. Also visit the caves that
grace the island and engross yourself in the mythology surrounding
them. Tours of Gozo usually include a trip to the Calypso Cave where

as fascinating as can be.
