Summary

Book your preferred option, meet your driver-guide and board your air-conditioned vehicle in central Gibraltar, and begin with a panoramic drive. As you sightsee, listen to your driver-guide sharing insights into Gibraltar’s history, geography, and culture, and snap photos of the landmarks. View the fortress walls, Moorish Castle, and Old Town, and enjoy the sea views at Europa Point, Gibraltar’s southernmost tip. Next, visit St. Michael’s Cave and the Apes’ Den on the Rock’s slopes to meet Gibraltar’s best-known residents: the Barbary macaques. Then, if you’ve upgraded to see the WWII tunnels, continue to the entrance to this extraordinary underground network. Tour the passageways, as you learn how they were excavated by the British in 1940 to house troops, food, and ammunition. View photos and exhibits, see the underground hospital and other facilities, and hear of the hardships of life here. Whatever your chosen option, your tour concludes in Gibraltar.
