Private boat tour

Amy_C, Mar 2026
Perfect boat tour for 3 hours plenty of time no rush. Very special because able to go into smaller beautiful caves. Very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful day on the bluest waters of Malta

Julie_H, Jul 2025
We had a great day on the water with Zlatko. He took us to several amazing coves with gorgeous blue water. He was very relaxed, answered our questions, and had fun entertaining our teenagers. We were on a cruise that docked in Valletta which is about 45 minutes across the island from the boat meeting spot. They helped us arrange a taxi ahead of time at a set price which was fair, on time and worked out great.

Loved our experience

Belinda_C, Jun 2025
Our skipper was super nice and friendly. We had a great time on our three hour boat ride. Seeing the sites of where the movie The Count of Montecristo took place was a cherry on top.

Fabulous! Highlight of our visit to Malta

Georgina_N, Jun 2025
We booked the 3 hour private boat trip. Picking up from Gozo. Ginger arrived bang on time on his luxury boat. We visited some lovely coves and caves and dropped anchor at both the Blue Lagoon and Cristal Lagoon for the most amazing time swimming in the clear waters. We brought our own drinks and food for the best ever picnic aboard the boat. An unforgettable experience

Best company to book private day cruise

This boat tour is amazing and a must do if ever you are in Malta.

Gary_Y, Aug 2024
This whole trip was amazing from start to finish, from the moment I booked the communication was spot on which was reassuring from the off. On the tour day we were met by our skipper Justin who was just the best, the man is a legend who is not only in our opinion a true gent, a knowledgeable guy who clearly enjoys his job and the role of making you feel welcomed but he has to be known as the life and soul of Malta/Gozo. The caves and the sights that he showed us were amazing and the pictures and memories that we have as a family will last forever. If you get a chance to book this boat trip then don’t hesitate, ignore the cost because trust me it’s worth every Euro. Justin if you ever read this we thank you for the few hours we spent with you. You made Logan’s holiday very special and all of our time on your boat was a pleasure. We appreciate you. Get booking everyone 😃

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Great family boat ride

Monica_d, Oct 2023
Noel was our captain and he took us on a great boat ride and was a great fit for our family - which included a 12 and 14 year old. He interacted with them and made sure to hail the ice cream boat over so we could get ice cream for our kids. Always asked what we would like to see and do and had a great time swimming in the beatiful waters. Great stories and a great and memorable ride. Highly recommend

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Thank you so much, Monica, for your fantastic review! 🚤🌅 We're delighted to hear that Noel, your captain, was a great fit for your family, including the 12 and 14-year-olds. It's heartwarming to know that he interacted with them and went the extra mile to make your trip memorable, even hailing the ice cream boat for a sweet treat! 🍦Noel's approach of always asking what you'd like to see and do ensured a personalized experience, and the beautiful waters of Comino provided the perfect backdrop for a day of swimming and exploring. Great stories and great memories - that's what it's all about! Thank you for recommending our family company Outdoor Explorers Malta, Monica, and we can't wait to welcome you all back for more family-friendly adventures in the future! 🌊🏊‍♂️🏝️🌟

Fabulous private boat trip

Ian_P, Aug 2023
Our private boat trip was amazing, not on one of these super fast speed boats but a much more leisurely cruise captained by Mario,who was amazing took us to the best places to swim and enjoy the most of our trip.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Hey Ian! We're elated to hear that you appreciated our great skipper Mario and customized, relaxed journey around Comino's jewels. Nothing beats the pristine blue waters of the Blue Lagoon. Thank you for sailing with us, and we eagerly await your return! 🛥️

It was nice

Michelle_M, Aug 2023
We didn’t get the boat that was sent to me, which is fine. The boat we got was a bit smaller. Skipper was nice and took us to all the spots that were promised. He took special care to drive slow so the kids would be comfortable. He took us to all the caves too. We were happy with what we got for the money we paid.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hi Michelle, its Janet Please note the boat you were touring on, was the same boat I had sent you the picture off, just clarified on WhatsApp as well :) Happy you had a good time with skipper Noel and you felt safe and comfortable with your family and kids on board!

Nice!

eefje_b, Aug 2023

Great day out! Pedro our skipper was excellent and made the trip special / catered for us. Definitely recommend

Incredible trip

Mitchell_E, Aug 2022
Jo was a great guide! He took us to all the beautiful spots, was very informative on the history of the island, and gave us just enough time at each location to enjoy. A lot was done in 3 hours and couldn’t be happier. Plus, always getting away from the large crowds was a bonus.

One to not miss

Ayesha_M, Jul 2022
We had a wonderful time as a family of 6 - captain and skipper stopped at the different lagoons and caves. They were super informative and helpful. Had snorkelling equipment available on board to use and the boat was clean and spacious. Would definitely recommend - swimming in the lagoons is an experience not to be missed!

The captain was very friendly. Great way to experience Malta. I would recommend this. We had a good time swimming in the beautiful Mediterranean Sea.

Great boat ride!

HectorOrtega, May 2022
Josef goes above and beyond to make your desires and needs met. The boat is a little small for my taste, but it’s all you need especially to get in most of the caves.

O capitão foi...

Eliana_C, Aug 2023
O capitão foi extremamente simpático e atencioso, todas as honras para ele. O barco não correspondeu às expectativas. Para o valor que foi pago, merecíamos algo mais estável e confortável. O que podia ser um passeio memorável, acabou por ser uma desilusão.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hi Eliana, Its Janet Sorry to hear that you were expecting a sailboat for the 3hour half day private charter, but sailboats are way slower and can not do this route in this amount of time. They also have the mast and the keel and therefore you can not explore the Comino caves and the blue shallow waters and the snorkel reefs. We use safe and stable fast powerboats to be able to explore the caves, make the crossing to Comino island faster and explore the shallow blue waters and reefs for snorkeling. Glad to hear you liked Captain Casper, we are very happy with him as a skipper for the family. Please let us know if you like to have a chat, we are available on whatsapp +35699741674 Sam and Janet
