Gozo Ferry Fares

Hi there,

Wonder if someone can answer this, it may sound stupid but..

I'm getting the ferry over to Gozo in the summer and can't quite work out the price.

Its 1 car with 4 adult passengers. According to the gozo ferry website, do I have to pay "1 Car and Driver" (ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚Â¬15.72) plus 3 passengers (ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚Â¬4.66), total of ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚Â¬29.70 or is it just the price for the car and driver?

Although for the driver fare it says
"This fare applies for all passengers, except Gozitan permanent residents and holders of "Karta Anzjan" "

Thanks for any help, and sorry once again if the answer is obvious!

By the way I've been to Malta loads of times and used the crossing before, however I have never paid for it!

Hi - its a few years since we went but i am pretty sure it is as you thought i.e. 1 car + driver and then the passengers seperately. I remember having two tickets when we went, one for car plus driver for hubby and one for adult plus infant for my daughter and I.

danielson81,

Nipped over to Gozo last month (December 2007), and was charged Lm10.50 return for the three of us + car. I think as msc1977 says, the driver + car are charged and the passengers pay separately. I know they're using the Euro now and Lm10.50 would equate to about ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚Â¬24.45 so ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚Â¬29.70 Euros sounds about right for a car + four of you,

It's very good value when you compare it for example to the Isle of Wight ferry. That is a similar distance but 3-4 time the cost when taking a car. £20 for a car and 4 people is £5 each return including car. I really don't know how Gozo Ferries can make any money at those prices.
