08:30–09:30 – Ferry from Ċirkewwa Ferry Terminal to Mġarr Harbour (Gozo)
From there, take them for pastizzi or breakfast at 1939 Bistro Bar and Pizzeria.
10:00–11:00 – Cittadella (Victoria)
An old fortified city. Take them inside — there’s a large-screen video presentation about the history. If you’ve never been inside, go in with them because it’s really beautiful.
11:15–11:45 – Ta' Pinu Basilica
Short stop.
12:00–12:30 – Għar il-Mielaħ Window
12:30–13:30 – Lunch at Ta' Tona Bar & Restaurant (Xlendi)
They have excellent caramelised slow-cooked beef cheeks.
13:45–14:15 – Calypso Cave
View of Ramla Bay (Ramla l-Ħamra). It’s truly beautiful. There’s parking, bathrooms, and a short wooden walkway.
14:30–14:45 – Tal-Mixta Cave
Overlooking Ramla l-Ħamra.
15:00–16:00 – Dwejra Inland Sea
Includes the Inland Sea, Fungus Rock, and possibly a boat trip (€5) if available.
Also take them on the path to the other side to show them the “General’s Rock” (Il-Blata tal-General). The view there is heavenly.
Boat trip location: Dwejra.
To finish the day, you can stop in the centre of Għarb (the village square near the church). That’s where we once went — next to the church in the main square. Mention my name and he’ll take good care of you.
