Private Tour
4 hours
Mobile ticket
Step aboard your own private RIB and escape the crowds to explore Gozo and Comino’s hidden gems in comfort and style. This private 4-hour tour offers a flexible, personalised experience — with swim stops at the famous Blue Lagoon, Crystal Lagoon, and secluded coves, plus guided visits to natural sea caves and iconic filming locations from Troy and The Count of Monte Cristo. We use only high-end RIB boats — known for their smooth ride, safety, and ability to access shallow, hard-to-reach caves that larger boats can’t. Your local skipper will tailor the route to your pace, avoiding busy areas and showing you the best of Malta’s coastline. Enjoy shaded seating, fresh water, quality snorkelling gear, and a taste of local snacks on board. Ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking an exclusive, unforgettable experience.

St. Mary's Tower
Cruise past the historic St. Mary’s Tower, a 17th-century coastal fort built by the Knights of St. John. Perched high on Comino’s cliffs, it once guarded the channel between Malta and Gozo. Film fans may recognise it from The Count of Monte Cristo (2002), where it appeared as the Château d'If prison. Beneath the cliff where the tower stands, we’ll enter the beautiful Lovers Cave by boat — a peaceful and romantic sea cave only accessible from the water, perfect for a quiet moment and some stunning photos.
L-Ghar ta' Bla Saqaf
Sail to one of Comino’s most dramatic natural wonders—L-Għar ta' Bla Saqaf, or “the cave without a roof.” This sea cave features a massive collapsed ceiling, creating a natural skylight that floods the interior with sunlight. The cave's unique structure and lighting make it a favorite spot for photography and exploration. Known locally as It-Tieqa or Taħt il-Ħnejja, this cave is also referred to as Popeye’s Cave, having been featured in the 1980s movie Popeye starring Robin Williams.

We had a wonderful private boat trip with our kids and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Francesco was very kind and attentive, listening to our needs. The boat itself was very modern, comfortable, and absolutely amazing. It really added to the whole experience. We also got to see some beautiful spots along the way, which made the trip even more memorable. Highly recommended for families looking for a unique experience. Thank you again for your flexibility regarding the schedule—it was greatly appreciated!

The web site was very good and the communication constant before, during and after our afternoon with GozoBlu. Thanks to Francesco and team for their very kind hosting on their Boat. Unfortunately, even in October the areas remain very touristy and they tried to keep us away for some more relaxed snorkeling. Thanks again

We took this private boat tour to the Blue Lagoon and Gozo, and it was undoubtedly one of the best experiences of our trip to Malta! The boat was comfortable, clean and perfect for enjoying the sea in tranquility, away from the tourist ferry crowds. Our skipper Francesco was exceptional: kind, professional and super helpful. He took us to hidden coves, spectacular caves and perfect spots for snorkeling in crystal clear waters. The time at Blue Lagoon was magical, and being able to experience it in such an exclusive way really made a difference. We also made a short stop in Gozo, with time to explore and relax. Everything was organized down to the smallest detail and we felt pampered from start to finish. I recommend this tour 100% to those looking for an authentic and relaxing experience, away from the most touristic circuits. We would come back soon to do it again!

We spent an unforgettable day between Gozo and Comino, discovering wonderful corners and dreamy bays. The boat was very comfortable and perfect to enjoy the Malta sea in total relaxation. Special thanks to Francesco, who made everything even more pleasant: always attentive, welcoming and genuine, he made us feel immediately at ease and told us curiosities and anecdotes with great passion. You can really see he loves his job! Highly recommended to anyone who wants to experience Malta from the sea in an authentic and special way. An experience that we would do again immediately! 🚤💙

Nigel was brilliant to deal with initially, and our captain Francesco was knowledgeable about the island and all the best places to go. Also got loads of recs for places to go - so appreciated! We loved it, and was perfect for a first day ‘reset’ mode trip. Thanks guys for a wonderful experience

A wonderful morning out getting to see the blue lagoon and other areas around the comino. Having a private tour was wonderful and we were able to get to the lagoon before anyone else was there. Excellent experience and would highly recommend!

Great Service, nice private boat trip. Everything as agreed in advance. Price and time of departure, duration,... Sympathetic skipper. However, the famous tourist places are very busy. The Blue Lagoon is very beautiful, but you have to include mass tourism.

The best part of my Malta trip! This family run business has excellent communication prior to the trip, during and even checked in on us after to make sure my mom and I were enjoying the rest of our Malta trip! Nigel and Francesco truly made this a memorable experience. They know every inch of the sea! They even took us to a secluded place and I felt like I was in a different universe. Their boats are clean, they are so punctual and provide so much information about the islands. They are from Gozo so they really know the history! I have to wear ear plugs for my ears under water and one fell out and sank at least 20 feet. Nigel jumped in searched for it (it was blue) and dove under and got it for me. Unbelievable. They took us to the most perfect spot at blue lagoon where it wasn’t crowded. See pictures below! This is a NO BRAINER. book your tour with them. I also suggesting doing the 6 hour tour. It is WORTH IT. You feel like you become part of their family and not just a tourist.
