Great trip - disappointed with the hotel transfer
A very pleasurable tour - the transfer in the morning didn’t work. Supposed to come at 830 at 852 we jumped in a taxi as we felt we might not get there to board at 9. They came at 858 and then called me - no refund - the boat is good - just note you don’t actually step onto Gozo
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour and your experience on board. Regarding the morning transfer, we’re sorry for the delay. The transfer was running late due to traffic then. As you had already decided to take a taxi at 08:52, the transfer had unfortunately been missed. We would therefore like to clarify that the transfer did arrive at the agreed pick-up point and was not cancelled or unavailable. With regards to Gozo, our itinerary includes a scenic stop around Gozo rather than a disembarkation on the island itself, as stated in the tour information. Thank you again for choosing Hera Cruises, and we wish you all the best.

Full day boat trip with plenty time to swim and snorkel
Booked direct with Hera including transfer from hotel Solana in Mellieha. Pick up at 8am, got to boat at Sliema at 9am. Boarded and set sail just after 9.30am. Sailed up coast, sandwich snack at 10.30, then 30 min swim stop at north Malta, then onto Gozo for 1hr stop .., swam and snorkelled then buffet lunch in boat with wine/beer available. Sailed back to blue lagoon at Comino where anchored for 90mins. Able to walk off boat and explore (must have blue lagoon pass which you register for once you’ve booked trip .. it’s free of charge), or just spend time snorkelling. Loads of boats so you have to be pretty aware of this when in the water. Clear water like being in a swimming pool, east to see fish and the sandy sea floor. Also option to do a 20min power boat ride to caves and elephant rock (what’s left if it after recent collapse). Free water and soft drinks and coffee all day which was great. Toilets on board and plenty place to shade. Only issue was transfer back to hotel at end of trip …. All customers on one large bus that went through every town! Took nearly 2hours to be dropped back compared to the 1hr journey on the way there !!! In retrospect should have done own transfers via Bolt or Uber as would have been same price.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your day with us. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the cruise, the swimming and snorkelling stops, the buffet lunch, and the Blue Lagoon. It’s also lovely to know you appreciated the complimentary drinks, coffee, shaded areas, and facilities on board. We are sorry that the return transfer took longer than expected. We understand how frustrating this must have been after a long day and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is very valuable to us. Thank you again for choosing Hera Cruises. We hope to welcome you on board again soon.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mellieha.
How much does Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon cost?
+
Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mellieha usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mellieha is not rushed.
Is Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 66 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mellieha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon?
+
Around 23 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mellieha can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mellieha and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hera 3 Bay Cruise including the Blue Lagoon start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mellieha within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mellieha?
+
On Outty we rank every Mellieha experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Gozo All Inclusive Chauffeured Tuk Tuk Day Tour - Blue Lagoon, Malta: Gozo Full Day Buggy Tour with lunch and Comino Stop, Gozo Quad Bike Day Tour - All-inclusive + Blue Lagoon. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mellieha?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mellieha?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
