A Taste of Authentic Gozo
Your journey includes a deep dive into the island’s culinary traditions.

To complement this, you will be treated to a traditional homemade tuna ftira. Prepared at home using a local family recipe, this authentic snack offers a genuine taste of Gozitan hospitality that you won't find in any restaurant.

First, we visit the ancient Ġgantija Temples, a UNESCO World Heritage site with stone structures older than the pyramids. Just moments away in the same village, we visit the Ta’ Kola Windmill, a beautifully preserved 18th-century windmill that offers a glimpse into the island’s rural milling history.
