Driving in Gozo: same rules, different rhythm

Royal Motoring School · 7 July 2026

Gozo's roads are calmer than Malta's, but they bring their own challenges: narrow country lanes, farm vehicles, unlit rural stretches and village cores built centuries before cars. The pace is slower — match it.

Taking the ferry with a car is straightforward: follow the marshals, park in gear with the handbrake firm, and note your deck. Royal covers Gozo too — our instructors teach on both islands, and your licence is identical.
