YOUR GIBRALTAR ROCK TOUR IN MORE DETAIL:

1. Gibraltar International Airport

Meet your guide and mini bus at the Gibraltar International Airport.  Your Gibraltar Rock Tour will depart at stated departure time so please arrive early.

2. Europa Point

Our first stop on the best Rock Tour is Europa Point where, on a clear day, which it is most days, you can see Jebel Sidi Musa the ‘other’ pillar of Hercules. The Gibraltar lighthouse was completed in 1841 and is still the only lighthouse outside of the United Kingdom that is administered by Trinity House, the authority that looks after all the UK and the Channel Islands lighthouses.

Our stop here will be approximately 20 mins

3. St Michael’s Cave

Our Rock Tour will now head up into the Gibraltar Nature Reserve and to Gibraltar’s top attraction, St Michael’s Cave.  You will have around 20 mins to explore this magnificent cathedral cave. The cave was discovered back in Roman times and how it has been used as a military hospital and more recently as a concert venue. The wondrous formations will not disappoint.

There is also a pack of Gibraltar monkeys roaming outside the entrance to St Michael’s Cave so this may be your first opportunity to meet the local monkey pack.  Remember, they are wild animals so be careful with your personal possessions, do not feed or touch them and keep your distance if there are young babies around.  Mothers may get very protective!!

4. Apes Den

Your next stop will be at Ape’s Den, where you will meet the Gibraltar monkeys, one of the highlights of your Gibraltar Rock Tour.  Here you will be able to spend some more time with and learning about our furry and mischievous friends, the barbary apes before heading down into the town area.

5. Casemate Square

As our time together comes to a close, you will be given the option of ending the Rock Tour at Casemates Square.

You can opt to end the tour at  ‘Casemates,’ located at the northern end of Main Street, has café bars and restaurants of all descriptions from where you can sit and relax and watch the world go by. All of Gibraltar’s life will walk past you and you may even spot the odd famous face from film or television in Gibraltar for a break. It was originally a barracks but more than that, as its name suggests, it was a store for ammunition hence the shape of all the buildings at one side of the square. The name comes from the Italian word ‘Casa Matta’ meaning ‘Armed House’. It also was the site of Gibraltar’s public executions the last one taking place in the 1860’s in full view of the Garrison.
