Stop 1

After pickup, we’ll head to the charming fishing village of Zurrieq, where you’ll have the option to take a boat ride to the famous Blue Grotto caves. First, we’ll stop at a scenic viewpoint to capture stunning photos of the caves from above.

The boat ride costs €10 for adults and €5 for children, payable in cash (euros only). This fee is not included in the tour price, as boat operations depend on weather conditions and may occasionally be unavailable.

The ride lasts 25 minutes, and we’ll allow additional time afterward for you to explore the village at your own pace.

Afterward, we’ll head to the breathtaking Dingli Cliffs, the highest sea cliffs in Europe. Here, you’ll enjoy a 15-minute stop to take in the stunning panoramic views and capture memorable photos of Malta’s dramatic coastline from this incredible vantage point.
