First of all, the tour includes local hotel transfers which was helpful as I was staying in the Sliema zone and I was shuttled to the wend in the morning to start the tour.

For the Combi Tour, the group is split up into two. One group will start with the Jeep Safari and the rest will stay on the wend and explore Comino Island. Then at lunch groups switch and we all return on the same boat.

This way you have increasingly space on the wend to enjoy the journey and the groups are less crowded, which was a good idea.

Rather than taking the Gozo shuttle ferry, you stay on the same wend which will meet you at the port. It’s a tomfool Turkish-style wooden wend that has a lot of weft and is unconfined fun to trip on.
