A Unique Experience – Highly Recommended! - Today’s cruise was truly a unique and unforgettable day! From start to finish, we enjoyed every single moment. The people were incredibly friendly, the ride was magical with breathtaking views, and the guided tour was fantastic. We also chose the guided tour in Gozo, which was an amazing addition and made the day even more special. We had a wonderful time and created the most beautiful memories. I highly recommend it to everyone!

- We had a wonderful day! The excursion lasted 6 hours and we could not see Saint Paul Island, but it is specified that the Captain can make modifications. However, this has been clarified in advance, through careful communication. The size of the boat was perfect to appreciate up close, all the staff was nice and warm, the music greatly contributes to the experience. We know we chose the right boarding, it fits what we were looking for! Thank you for this lovely dream come true

Boat tour to blue lagoon, minibus to gozo - Best boat trip I have been on. Excellent, attentive and friendly staff, beautiful scenery. Gozo on the minibus was well worth the extra euros. Enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you everyone

Day Trip on the Mermaid Cruise - Had an amazing full day trip to Comino, Gozo and St.Pauls Island. The staff were professional, friendly and even helped me call a taxi when my phone battery died 🙈
The boat was great, not too big so we could enter some of the larger caves. The kids loved sitting at the front dangling their legs off the boat.
10/10 for the music choice, as a millennial I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Thank you for making the experience seamless and memorable.

Great trick! - Great! Thank you ❤️
The crew is kind and attentive. The fact that the boat contains only a small number of people is really very appreciated if you want a quiet ride.
The places visited are beautiful. We were able to see all the must-see gozo and comino spots.
Access to the caves via the boat is a real plus!
The bus included in the tour is both economically advantageous and time-saving.
Besides, the boat is clean and pretty.

Good tour more or less everything, but in too much of a hurry - In general the tour is very interesting: you can visit most of the points of interest of the islands near Malta, the blue lagoon of Comino, the citadel in Gozo and the caves. The staff is friendly and helpful and drinks can be bought on board to cool off at reasonable prices.
Unfortunately the tour has the defect of being too short. Too little time is left on both islands, especially at the blue lagoon, where with a single hour it is difficult to find time to buy lunch or a souvenir from the stands near the beach, or to take a dip calmly in the beautiful waters of the lagoon. The tour is therefore recommended for those who want to take a purely touristic tour, but not recommended for those who are looking for a way to reach comino and relax on the island.
