Gibraltar
The tour to the British Rock
1 DAY TOUR
Gibraltar
Explore the British territory of “The Rock” in Gibraltar, nestled at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula. This unique destination, renowned for its strategic location as the gateway to the Mediterranean, is steeped in history and offers an unforgettable experience.
Since the signing of the Treaty of Utrecht in 1712, Gibraltar has remained a British Overseas Territory and has proudly maintained its ties to the British Empire, later becoming a member of the Commonwealth.
Upon crossing the border, our adventure begins with an informative 1 ½ hour minibus tour. Gibraltar’s rich history unfolds before us, having been conquered by various civilisations that once inhabited the Iberian Peninsula, including the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, and Moors. This remarkable destination holds immense strategic and military importance within the Mediterranean region.
Our tour includes visits to attractions such as St. Michael’s Caves, a natural wonder showcasing the intricate beauty of the rock formations. We will also explore Europa Point, a scenic location offering stunning views where the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea meet. And of course, we cannot forget the famous Barbary Apes, the mischievous inhabitants of Gibraltar, who are sure to captivate and entertain.
Following our exploration, you will have free time to discover more of the unique atmosphere of Gibraltar. Savour a traditional British delight with a serving of fish and chips, an experience that will transport you to the heart of British culture.
Optional visits that can be added to the excursion include the Jewish cemetery and the Flemish Synagogue, providing further insight into the multicultural heritage of Gibraltar.
