Overview
Our tour begins with a drive along Winston Churchill Avenue to the Spanish border, then on to the East Side of the Rock, through the Dudley Ward Tunnel to the most southerly point of Gibraltar - Europa Point. From this vantage point you can see the north coast of Africa on a clear day.
We then head to the Upper Rock Nature Reserve to visit the spectacular St. Michael's Cave, which is full of stalactites and stalagmites that have been sculptured through the centuries. St Michael's Cave has 75 steps at the exit; however, those guests with walking difficulties may leave the caves via the entrance.
We then move on to meet Gibraltar's most respected residents - the Barbary apes. These cheeky - and sometimes naughty - monkeys roam freely over the rocks and are not averse to helping themselves to handbags, cameras, and food! Its said that Gibraltar will remain British as long as the apes remain on the Rock.
Our tour then continues past the Moorish Castle, through the Old Town, and on to Main Street. You can then either leave the tour in Main Street and go for shopping and light refreshments or return to the ship - just let the driver know on the day.
