How to visit Gozo/Malta by quad bike

You’re planning to go on a quad bike tour in Gozo or to rent quad bikes during your stay in Malta?

Great idea!

First of all, you should know that quad bike tours (and rentals) in Malta are actually done on the island of Gozo, the 2nd island of the Maltese archipelago. It’s located only 20 minutes by boat from Malta.

In my opinion, a quad bike tour in Gozo is clearly the best way to explore this beautiful island in a fun way!

So, what are the best quad bike tours? Where to rent quad bikes in Gozo?

Gozo Quad Bike Tour from Malta – Full Day

This full day quad bike tour in Gozo will allow you to discover the most beautiful places of the island accompanied by a guide while enjoying some free time for a swim stop (in summer).

It also includes a buffet lunch as well as transportation from all the main cities of Malta: Valletta, Gzira, Sliema, Buggiba, Mellieha.

A mini bus will pick you up in the morning and take you directly to the private boat going to Gozo.

You will not have to take the ferry, so no time wasted!

Once you will arrive in Gozo and disembark, someone will be waiting to take you to the starting location of your Gozo quad bike tour.

Of course, if you are already staying in Gozo, you can also do this tour! All you have to do is to go to the meeting point.

During your quad bike tour in Gozo from Malta, you will visit:

• Qala Belvedere, to admire the view over Comino and the island of Malta
• Ramla Bay beach: the largest beach in Gozo is famous for the ocher color of its sand. You will have some time to walk around or take a dip.
• Victoria, the capital of Gozo, where you can find a beautiful citadel
• Marsalforn salt pans: one of my favorite places on the island, just going there makes your quad bike tour in Gozo really worth it!
• Dwejra where the Azure Window, Gozo’s former most famous tourist attraction used to be located. Even if it collapsed in 2017, Dwejra is still home to 2 very famous places: the Inland Sea and the Blue Hole (for diving). Cool fact: Dwejra was actually used as a filming location for the series Game of Thrones!
• Xlendi Bay, a small seaside resort.

During this quad bike tour in Gozo, the following is included:

• Lunch
• A stop in a local store where you can taste Gozo honey and prickly pear liquor (very good!)
• A swim stop at the Inland Sea in summer.

After the quad bike ride, you will be taken back to the port to catch the boat. On the way, the boat makes a detour to Comino so that you can admire the Blue Lagoon and the sea caves.

The minibus will then take you back to your hotel in Malta.

For lunch, Sam will take you to a good restaurant (local cuisine) featuring an amazing view over Gozo countryside. The lunch is at your own expense, so you can order what you please.

Gozo Quad Bike Tour from Malta – Half Day

You want to visit Gozo by quad bike from Malta, but you only have half a day?

No problem!

You can enjoy a short trip to Gozo with this 3-hour quad bike tour.

First, they will come pick you up in Malta: the pickup time will depend on where your hotel is located: Valletta, Gzira, Sliema, Buggiba or Mellieha.

Just like for the full day tour, you will then take a private boat to Gozo and go to the tour’s departure point.

If you’re already staying in Gozo, it will be even easier: you will just have to go directly to the meeting point.

During your 3-hour quad bike tour in Gozo, you will see:

• Qala Belvedere, for its sublime view on the small island of Comino and the turquoise water of the Blue Lagoon
• The beach of Ramla Bay, a beautiful sandy beach
• Marsalforn salt pans, the highlight of the day!
• Ghasri Valley, to discover the Gozitan countryside.

Unlike for the full day tour, the lunch, the swimming stop and the private boat return are not included.

At the end of the tour, you will be taken back to the port to catch the ferry to Malta.

Quad bike rental in Gozo

If you want to rent a quad bike in Gozo and organize your itinerary, that’s also possible!

You will quickly see that a quad bike is particularly well suited to move around Gozo and take all the small roads of the island.

The rates for quad bike rentals in Gozo is 80€ per day, gas included.

Don’t waste your time comparing prices, all companies offer exactly the same rates:

• Mgarr Tourist Services
• Gozo Quad Hire
• Gozo Quad Rentals

I strongly advise you to book your quad bike in advance to be sure to have one. The demand is very high and if you try to book at the last minute (especially in high season), there will be nothing available.
