The Food Experience

Join us on an exclusive culinary experience on Gozo, where every stop brings you closer to the island’s heart through its food, traditions, and stories.

We begin by visiting one of Gozo’s famous old bakeries. In these traditional bakeries, some dating back to 1800, stone ovens still produce the island’s beloved bread and pastries, baked with the same methods for generations!

You might even catch a glimpse of the bakers at work, pulling fresh bread or traditional ftira from the glowing embers of the wood-fired oven.

Than we head to a local estate where we  can sample our  freshly bought local bread from the bakery (hobz tal-Malti) accompanied either by local peppered sheep cheese (gbejna tal-bzar) , tomato paste (kunserva) or homemade olive oil (Zejt taz-Zebbuga).

To complement the flavors, we can also sample local wines or the highly sought-after prickly pear liqueur, (Bajtra).

We then venture towards the Xwejni Salt pans, where in the northern region of Gozo, we discover how salt originates from the sea, before it makes its way onto our table.

This is also a great way to take in Gozo’s breathtaking northern coastline, and a perfect moment for photography and fresh sea air.

Food Allergy Notice :

For any allergies or intolerances, we kindly ask  you to inform us in advance. Please note that many of our local products are traditionally made with wheat and dairy, and alternative options may be limited, as this is a traditional food tour. The concept behind  this experience is visiting local artisans in their original settings. That said, there are still plenty of food options available for you to enjoy and experience local flavours.

Kindly browse through our google reviews to read what previous guests had to say.

We had a gorgeous day in Gozo with Edward! He was so thoughtful in listening to what interested us and custom tailoring a day around it. He was patient and professional and a very knowledgeable guide. He took us to the prettiest parts of the island, and knew special little spots between each one. Swimming in the Blue Hole was just incredible! He worked hard to make sure we had an amazing day!

An unforgettable Gozo experience with an exceptional guide! We had the absolute pleasure of exploring Gozo with Edward from Go Gozo, and we honestly could not have wished for a better experience! From the very beginning, Edward was incredibly friendly, attentive and professional. But very quickly, we realised that Edward was not your typical tour guide. By the end of the day, it felt much more like we had spent the day with a friend who simply wanted to show us his beautiful island and take us on an unforgettable road trip. What made the day truly special was Edward's genuine passion for Gozo. He didn't simply take us to the usual tourist attractions — he showed us unique, beautiful and much less touristy places that we would never have discovered on our own. It felt like we were experiencing the real Gozo, rather than simply following a standard tourist route. Edward shared so many interesting stories and fascinating information about the island, its history, culture and traditions. You could immediately tell how much he loves Gozo and how proud he is to share it with visitors ❤️ Edward was also incredibly attentive throughout the entire day. He made sure we were comfortable, took our wishes into account and created a tour that felt personal, relaxed and spontaneous rather than rushed. And there is one thing we especially want to mention: despite feeling unwell himself, Edward still went ahead with our tour because he didn't want to disappoint us or let our plans fall through. We were genuinely touched by this dedication. He even managed to make our day wonderful while he himself wasn't feeling well. That says a lot about the kind of person he is 🩷 If you are looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, passionate, attentive and genuinely cares about giving you a special experience, we wholeheartedly recommend Edward and Go Gozo! Thank you so much, Edward, for an amazing day and for showing us a side of Gozo that we will remember for a very long time 🩷

Edward was fantastic! My husband and I (we are 30-somethings) had some ideas for a tour around Gozo but hadn't done all of our research. Working together with Edward we were able to create a customized, private tour that included both our initial priorities (swimming) with his top recommendations. In all, a fun, informmative, well-rounded tour. As Edward told us, we come as clients and leave as friends :)

A brilliant private guided tour of Gozo with Edward - easy booking and communication beforehand, the pick up and the comfortable car were much appreciated and Edward's information and knowledge, points of interest, humour, generosity, superb English and passion for the island were very much enjoyed and appreciated! Brilliant afternoon, topped off perfectly by meeting the gorgeous Yorkie crew and bumping into Edward's father.🥰Highly recommended! 🤩

We had an amazing time with Edward. As someone who doesn't like classic tours to most touristic places and prefers very local experience, it was exactly what we needed - someone local taking us to places where we would never get to with other tour organizers. We learned a lot about Gozo during the tour. Aitäh, Edward, meil oli väga tore! :)

If you want a personalised quad tour with someone who is proud of Gozo, then Go Gozo is an absolute must! Edward took his time to share not only some very special places around the island but also some very special friends who run businesses across the island - without any pressure to purchase etc. Discovering Gozo through the eyes of a local Gozitan, is something we will treasure for a lifetime!

Bardzo polecam goGOZO ! Edwardo zabrał nas w przepiękne miejsca! Całą wycieczką była zrobiona pod nas :) jeśli chcieliśmy wskoczyć do wody to mieliśmy taką możliwość. Super kontakt po angielsku :) Edwardo zna też kilkanaście słów po polsku i uczy się nowych od kolejnych turystów. Dostaliśmy wodę i poznaliśmy jego 5 psiaków rasy York :) to też była atrakcja dla moich dzieci. Bardzo polecamy!

Wow, wow, wow! What a day. We had such an incredible time being shown around Gozo by Maria. Her passion for her home and warm, friendly nature turned us into fast friends. I highly recommend booking a tour and spending the day with her. You absolutely will not regret it! GRATZI!

After we will  visit a local cafeteria, where we will indulge in the local pastizzi, accompanied by local coffee and a chat with some locals. A typical gozitan’s breakfast, and a common snack!

We will then head to a breathtaking panorama of Gozo, where in the same view you will be able to see the island’s plateaus, the capital city  Victoria, home to the Cittadella Fortress, accompanied with stunning views of the North and South of Gozo.

This isn’t just a food tour, it’s a feast for your senses, mixing flavours with culture, history, and local charm. Please note there is no obligation to purchase in any of the venues we visit.

Duration

The duration is 4 hours.
