As a place to relax, ‘hang out’ and live the good life the island is unsurpassed. After you set foot on Gozo, you’ll know why you need more than just a day to savour it’s leisurely charms. The more you enjoy your visit to Gozo, the more likely you are to return, and to recommend the island to others. If you are intrigued by this beautiful island’s ability to create ‘Gozo fanatics’ like ourselves, then plan a visit. We always stay for more than just a day. It’s the secret hideaway of all Maltese. Which is why we would prefer to leave it undiscovered by you. But it’s in our nature to share the best we have with visitors. 03 Contents 10/23/08 10:08 AM Page 1 MALTA MALTA Contents Tourist Information ..................4 Bus Routes ..............................5 Museums & Heritage Sites ......6 Heritage/Re-Enactments ..........8 Exhibitions ............................10 Performances ........................14 Theatre ................................19 Festivals................................20 Sports ..................................21 Eating Out............................22 Gardens ..............................23 Maps: RMF Publishing & Surveys Ltd Sliema/St.Julian’s ....26-27 Publisher Rabat/Mdina................28 Mario Zahra Birgu ............................29 Advertising Sales Executive Bugibba/St. Paul’s Bay..30 Valerie Rausi Valletta ........................31 Compilation While every care has been taken to ensure the accuracy Sandra Zahra of the information given in this booklet, no liability can be accepted by RMF Publishing and Surveys Limited for any error, omissions, or changes in the information Mapping given, or for the consequence of any reliance on the © 2008 RMF Publishing & information.
