Experience
Local experiences. Local stories.
Step into a slice of Britain on the southern tip of Spain. This full-day trip takes you from Torremolinos straight to Gibraltar in a comfortable air-conditioned coach — direct transfers, no unnecessary stops.
Once across the border you have around six hours to explore at your own pace. Ride the cable car up the Rock, meet the Barbary macaques — the only wild monkeys in Europe — in the Upper Rock Nature Reserve, and head underground into St. Michael’s Cave or the Great Siege Tunnels. Back at sea level, Main Street is lined with tax-free shops for perfume, electronics, spirits and jewellery, and Casemates Square is the place to stop for lunch.
Your bilingual guide travels with you, shares the history of the Rock along the way, and gives you tips to make the border crossing quick and smooth. Booking is flexible: free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure.
