      Great day out to the islands.
      A full day of sightseeing, a terrifying (good way!) speed boat trip and time to enjoy Gozo. Still back for tea after 7 hours.

      An amazing day out
      An amazing day out at a fair price. The optional speedboat ride definitely recommended. Gozo is a must see especially the citadel. Beautiful waters with really friendly staff and good food.

      Great day trip to see main sites
      Great boat trip. You get to see all the main attractions. You have about 1 hour to swim at the blue lagoon. Things to note: the bus that takes you to the main sites in Gozo costs extra. You purchase the tickets on the boat. The speedboat that takes you into the caves also costs extra.

      Amazing experience
      It was an amazing opportunity, the ship is big and the sun beds on the top deck are really comfy, but even if you're sitting on the main deck, you won't miss out nothing. The crew was really kind and enthusiastic such as the captain, who gave us interesting infromations throughout the trip about Malta and the sights. Also, he brought the good-mood especially with the great playlist. The slide was fun and even in November the sea temperature was around 23 C°. Also, if you choose the bus for 5 euros in Gozo, you have plenty of time to discover the capital. Totally recommend this trip!

      Great experience
      I thoroughly enjoyed the boat tour to Comino, the Blue Lagoon, and Gozo. The journey offered stunning views and an unforgettable experience on the water. However, the optional tour on Gozo felt a bit underwhelming and didn’t add significant value to the overall experience because we didn’t have any guide with us only the driver. Despite this, the main tour was well worth it, providing breathtaking sights and a relaxing atmosphere.

      Book this one
      Fantastic day out on this boat trip. We opted for all day at the blue lagoon as we had seen Gozo already. Very well organised informative and a lovely experience overall. The tour leaves at 10am. You need to be there by 9.15 if you want a seat on the upper deck. Drinks on board were reasonably priced, as was the food. We had prepared our own lunch so we sat on Comino beach to eat but the boat is a great base for your day out. They have a 10m slide which was great fun and the blue lagoon was stunning. Highly recommend.

      Good overall, but some issues
      I really enjoyed the tour, but there some issues I couldn't overlook. I had a lot of fun seeing the caves up close during the speedboat excusion and swimming in the Blue Lagoon. I want to give this 5 stars but there were a few issues: (1) the men's bathroom wasn't well maintained nor in good working order, and (2) when we were dropped off at Victoria in Gozo we were not told where we could go so initially I did not know where I could go. Fortunately, I had my guidebook with me so I was able to figure out where I could spend the afternoon.

      返金はありません。
      日本から行きました。 新婚旅行で行きました。 結論から言うと最悪でした。 時間通りに行ったのに出発してました。 詳細のガイド説明みたいな記載がありますが、間違えて記載してます。 ちなみに、私の時は10時15分発と記載があったのに10時には出発してました。 1時間前には行ったほうがいいかもしれません。 ちなみに、間違えていたのがこのツアー会社であるにもかかわらず、返金はありません。 記載のある時間は間違いです。 直接出発時間をこのツアー会社に聞くか、もしくは他のツアー会社にするほうが良いかもしれません。 返金はありませんでした。 事実のみ記載しております。 以下、英語訳です。 “We went on our honeymoon. To conclude, it was terrible. Although we arrived on time, the tour had already departed. The description mentions a detailed guide schedule, but it is incorrectly stated. For example, our tour was supposed to depart at 10:30 a.m., but it left at 10:00 a.m. I’d recommend arriving at least an hour early. Despite this mistake being on the part of the tour company, there was no refund. The listed time is incorrect. Either check the departure time directly with the tour company or consider choosing a different company. No refund was provided.”

      Good value for money, great day trip
      Great experience with lots of optional programmes! We didn’t want to swim in the sea (although the weather was super nice) and we went on the speedboat tour and to Victoria as well where we could walk around and had a great time.

      The best day out
      Was the best day of our holiday by far!! We did the Blue Lagoon and Gozo island. The staff were super lovely and helpful. They offer life jackets to swim in the sea for young children or those who are not strong/confident swimmers. I highly recommend paying the €5pp (cash only) for the mini bus on Gozo island. Made it super easy and meant we didn’t have to worry about getting back in time for the boat. Would recommend to everyone who goes to Malta. I would definitely do this trip again!

    I would thoroughly recommend the sunset cruise , it was less crowded and the sunset was beautiful. It was still warm and yet there wasn’t the Intense heat of the day .
    The atmosphere was perfect , music was great and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
    Me and my partner even braved the slide into the sea ( aged 57 and 52 )
    Highlight of our holiday and brilliant memories made .
    Thankyou so much hornblower cruises

    Great experience. Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice journey to Comino, not too long and cave visit was interesting. The music playlist was good for young and old and we got to see a great sunset.

    The big highlight for me though was the snorkelling - the Blue Lagoon was the best site we visited in our week on Malta and Gozo.

    We were lucky enough to see: stingray, cuttlefish, a big moray eel and hundreds of fish. Even if you aren’t an experienced snorkeller just use a mask and snorkel and you’ll see a lot from the surface. Follow the shoreline by the rocks away from the other boats. There’s more to see by the rocks but do keep an eye on the sandy bottom where the stingrays and flatfish hide. I got close to a stingray on the sandy bottom, right next to the boat, at about 7m but be respectful and don’t get too close to anything. The eel was swimming at around 3m but hid when it saw us.

    After nearly 2 hours in the water the burger and chips back onboard Hornblower was delicious!

    All the staff were so friendly & helpful which is always great. I was worried the food sold on board would be an extortionate price but was relieved to see that it was fairly priced. The views were gorgeous & the captain would announce when you were coming up to a scenic photo opportunity so you can’t miss them! As for swimming in the blue lagoon I think the sunset cruise was perfect the lagoon had died down a lot & it was nothing like the complaints I see on social media of how packed & how busy it is. My mind was put completely at ease as you can get a life jacket as well, so this is the perfect cruise option if you’re not a strong swimmer. The deck chairs on the top deck are also a nice touch that many competitor companies don’t have. Overall a great time & would recommend them!!

    Wonderful experience!

    We were worries this was going to be a teen “party boat” but we were pleasantly surprised it was full of all ages and great fun for the kids.

    We chose the sunset cruise to avoid the stifling heat and crowds at Blue Lagoon. The boat left at 5.30pm and we had a lovely sail along the coast with the skipper pointing out areas of interest and taking us as far as he could into the beautiful caves.

    We arrived at a lovely spot in the Blue lagoon and quickly made use of the 10ft slide into the crystal clear warm water. The children had an absolute blast jumping off the boat and using the slide, it was great fun! Snorkels can be hired onboard and we hired a life jacket for our 6 year old which was a €10 deposit which was returned when we handed it back.

    The bar below deck was superb with exceptionally priced food and a full bar. The cocktails were excellent and you could have them in a large pineapple which was a really lovely touch.

    The music was perfect, not too loud and a real mix of all tastes.

    Sailing back at 8.30pm under the stars was a lovely experience!

    Staff were so pleasant and helpful, highly recommend this company!!!

    We had a great time enjoying the lagoon, the sunset and the night views on the return trip. Besides the starry sky and the Malta's lights, we even saw some fireworks from the boat on the return trip, while sipping on delicious wine (bought from the boat at a good price). We recommend this trip and also Hornblower's daytime one (which we took a few years ago).

    Highly recommended trip. Travelling as a family of four (2 teens) with 2 of the party not keen on boats this nailed it as an excursion with myself loving boats having looked all week, wading through all the various trips on offer in Malta.

    We were based in Valetta and decided to splash out on a Bolt taxi across to St. Paul’s which only took about 25 mins. We arrived early and were able to board the Hornblower half hour before departure, with myself and my son opting for the deck chairs on the sun deck (this quickly filled up). The bottom deck had plenty of free space and was in the shade.

    On departure we headed north with some cave stops at the southern side of Comino Island, then continuing onto the Blue Lagoon where we moored for 2hrs allowing for exit onto the island or just stay on the boat jumping from top deck or using the slide. For us it was perfect as the sun was setting over Gozo and less busy in the lagoon. The food onboard was delivered quickly and surprisingly cheap and tasty. The staff were super friendly and all aspects of safety covered on departure and once we arrived at the lagoon. Homeward, you can enjoy all the lights of Maltas coastline.

    The staff was really nice and helpful, on the boat itself there were food, beverages and really nice cocktails. The trip itself was really beautiful, at the Blue Lagoon you can even swim between the fish. When you go back it’s dark, so you can see the coast light up and it’s an amazing view.

    I can definitely recommend this trip!

    Great trip, just the right duration and after the main heat of the day. The blue lagoon was less crowded and the staff very helpful. The food well priced and the journey back under the stars was great watching an electrical storm out at see and accompanied by a v chill playlist on the boat’s speakers. Something I’ll remember for a long time. Great value trip.

    Nice atmosphere on the boat, they take you to the right places, it's best to arrive on the boat early to choose your place. Top slide and possibility of jumping from the boat
    Nice staff especially the lady on the boat who speaks French. Small, pleasant extra shuttle
    Experience to live avoid weekends or public holidays because too many people at the blue lagoon on these days

    Amazing trip. Plenty of time when get to blue lagoon to go and swim in the sea and go for a walk on Comino where there are a couple of vans for food and drinks. Managed to see the sunset before they sailed back! Amazing evening. There was the option to buy food and drinks on the boat also for reasonable prices :)
