Best Blue lagoon tour in Malta! - What a fantastic cruise! Aurora was so kind and helpful and even went out of her way to research the wind levels and weather for the day of our trip and suggested the best part of the boat to be based No hard sales pitch, unlike some of the other companies on the Quay The boat itself was spotless toilets, were clean and the bar well stocked Really enjoyed using the slide off the Crystal Logoon even in my 50s! 3 1/2 hours at the blue Lagoon were perfect and loved snorkelling at the little Cominitto island opposite, especially the little caves What an experience swimming amongst shoals of fish Stopping off at the some of the large caves to take some photos was great Also loved the 80s music on the return journey! All staff on board were really helpful and worked so hard with a smile on their faces, which shows they really enjoy their job If you choose, one cruise, choose this one! 10/10

Great choice - It was very well organized trip. Staff was nice and helpful. The boat was not obercrowded. It was enough place for all passangers. Blue lagoon and Comino were worth to see.

Very pretty despite the crowd - We had a pleasant day. After a boat tour of the coast with some stops to take pictures, the boat dropped us off at the blue lagoon, it is beautiful but unfortunately overcrowded this season. So we walked away and enjoyed a small cove very nice. The staff of the boat is very nice. I recommend

Travelling with kids - The tour is great value for the money.The stop at Crystal Lagoon is perfect! Jumping and swimming around the boat ;) However blue lagoon is getting really crowded, (compared to my last visit 11 years ago). The boat arrives in the afternoon 14 ish and you can stay ashore till 17 20 ish. The boat departure in the meantime to pick up some Gozo tourists and come back and dock to lagoon at 16 00. Best part was when we went back to the boat early (1600) we stayed next to boat and jumped and swim around. If you are with smaller kids, take into consideration that the cruising time may be too long (and maybe windy) for an infant. Actually, there will be no shade in the blue lagoon at all, if you leave the boat. (All the shady spots are taken by the tourists by that time). On the other hand the boat itself is very comfortable providing lots of shades. Crew is professional and sharing lots of good information of Malta and Comino itself.

Paradise site but a hell of a world - Beautiful cruise with adapted comments, in several languages including French. The sights are beautiful: crystal lagoon swimming is very nice, even if there are many boats. The arrival at the blue lagoon is surprising: many trucks of medium quality food, and on the beach, narrow, a crazy world. Tourists behave dirty: garbage everywhere, including in the water while we are in a paradise site. Hard to protect yourself from the sun, except to be racketed for an umbrella by temple merchants. A little out of the way, we can snorkel. On the boat very nice crew and very clean boat

Missing stop - I paid also to go to the crystal lagoon in comino, but the boat did not stop there and I did not receive an explanation for that. The tour, in general, is beautiful but there was not everything I paid for.

Wrong boat - It’s not the same boat as the picture shows in the booking. There were too many people on it and you couldn’t even lay down. Everybody was trying to stand and dry in the sun.

Check the weather - Check the weather before your free cancellation period expires. Our cruise should have been cancelled. Rough seas and multiple people vomitted on our way to Comino. Water very rough at Comino with only small sections available for swimming. The company should have cancelled but they are greedy. I have been to Comino 3 times and this was the was the worst experience.
