A little piece of Britain dropped onto the coast of southern Spain, Gibraltar is head-scratchingly quirky. On this tour, you'll visit the town itself and the Rock nature reserve, then explore the Great Siege Tunnels before stopping for lunch. There's also free time to meet the famous Barbary apes and take advantage of the duty-free shopping. Carmen, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The Barbary apes are so synonymous with Gibraltar that when numbers dipped in the mid-20th century, a new troop was imported to ensure the population could thrive.'
You'll start the day with a coastal drive to Trinity Lighthouse and Europa Point, with your knowledgable guide giving you the lowdown on Gibraltar's rich history. Then, continue on to the Great Siege Tunnels. These defensive galleries were blasted out of the rock during the Great Siege, a three-year battle in the late 18th century. Next up is a walk across the iconic Windsor Suspension Bridge, before time to snap some photos of the famously cheeky Barbary apes which roam the reserve freely. You'll round off the jam-packed tour with lunch at the Rock Hotel.
After resting and refuelling, there's free time to enjoy a pleasant stroll through the botanic gardens, where there is a notable collection of succulents, and along the shopping mecca that is Main Street. Or maybe you'd prefer to sip a coffee and simply soak up the ambiance of this curious British enclave. As English poet Laurie Lee once said, ‘A piece of Portsmouth sliced off and towed 500 miles south.'
