Great Experience

We booked a tour with a Speedboat to the caves! It was a very great experience!!! Aswell we took the Bus to Gozo, but we didn't have enough time to visit the Island. Maybe it is better to visit Gozo on a whole day Trip.

Great Experience!!

great way to explore Malta. I would recommend splitting the Gozo and Comino experiences on separate day so that you can explore these places at leisure. But if you want to cover everything in single day then this is the best deal.
