A great day - We opted for a day trip on the Luzzu boat, Kataleya. We sailed to Gozo, where some passengers disembarked. We continued to the crystal lagoon, where we enjoyed swimming and snorkelling from the boat. Our 15 year old son particularly enjoyed the slide and jumping into the sea from the ship. We spent 45 minutes swimming before continuing to Comino and the Blue Lagoon for the longer stop of 2/3 hours. We stopped at the quieter end of the lagoon, which was great. We walked along to the most populated part and purchased lunch from one of the many vendors before returning to where our boat was moored. We enjoyed swimming and snorkelling and more slides before sailing back to Sliema. The boat was well equipped with a bar selling soft drinks, beer and hotdogs, etc. for reasonable prices. There was also the option to hire snorkels. The boat offered shade for almost the whole deck. During the return trip, we entered the caves, which was a bonus, and added to the many photo opportunities we had during the trip. The crew were all friendly and helpful, and I would definitely recommend this cruise. Be aware that Comino is very rocky, and footwear needs consideration. We used sandshoes with rubber soles, which were fine but several people were struggling in flip-flops.

What an experience! - What an experience. The staff were ultra friendly and helpful and the tour was fantastic. Early morning was a bit rough due to the weather but the crew warned us and did their best to make the ride good. Facilities were fantastic and staff were knowledgeable. Highly recommend swimming off the boat!

Amazing boat trip! - Amazing boat trip! The staff were all so friendly and helpful, making it a fantastic day. Would thoroughly recommend. The faciliies on the boat were great, we loved the slide! Got to swim in the gorgeous clear, blue water and had a very enjoyable day. This trip was great value for money and seemed more reasonable than others we looked at. Everything was well organised and ran smoothly. A must do in malta!

Very good excursion - Excursion booked the day before for the next day because another company cancelled our reservation. Booking made on board the Antonia via get your guide (no other choice) but upon arrival at the port 1h30 before, we were offered the largest boat with slide. The staff was very nice, we enjoyed the boat enormously at the Blue Lagoon! Company very responsive to messages and accommodating! We highly recommend this cruise which allows DE enjoy Crystal Lagoon and Blue Lagoon for 3 hours!

Trip in April - The trip went great, we had good weather and few people on the boat so more profitable for us. Staff with little care who distribute small bags to those who feel unwell. Always with a smile and a good mood, it was nice to travel with them.

No go Comino… - Beautiful location ruined by too many visitors; insufficient space on tiny beaches; crowded uncomfortable boat; too many fast food outlets; unsafe walking conditions in many areas; unclear instructions on booking email about needing passes to alight at the Blue Lagoon; unhelpful members of staff at boarding site.
