Description

Discover Gibraltar on a day trip from the Costa del Sol. Cross the airport runway on foot, explore Casemates Square, and get tips on how to make the most of your time.
This tour is conducted in both English and German. Your guide will provide the explanations in both languages throughout the journey, so you can enjoy the tour comfortably in your preferred language.

Begin your day trip to Gibraltar with convenient pickup from designated meeting points in Malaga, Torremolinos, Benalmádena, or Fuengirola. Travel in comfort on a modern coach, with your guide explaining the route and border procedures for Gibraltar.

As you approach Gibraltar, you'll travel through the Strait of Gibraltar, one of Europe's most remarkable marine environments. At its narrowest point, just 14 kilometres separate Europe from Africa, while the Strait connects the Atlantic Ocean with the Mediterranean. Its unique currents make it an important habitat and migration route for dolphins, whales, tuna, and other fish. This is what makes the waters around Gibraltar particularly special for dolphin watching. With good visibility, you may also see the North African coast.

Along the way, you'll be able to download a digital map to help you find your way around Gibraltar.

Make a coffee stop and enjoy coffee, Cola Cao, milk, tea, or water. Since July, there's no longer a border between Spain and Gibraltar. We still stop before crossing to do something unique: walking across the airport runway, one of the few roads in the world that crosses an active runway.

Continue to Grand Casemates Square, one of Gibraltar's most historic squares, dating back to the foundation of the Muslim city in 1160. Today, it is the vibrant heart of Gibraltar, filled with bars, restaurants, and shops. Your guide will explain how to get around and make the most of your time.

From here, choose your experience:

Dolphin Watching + Freetime — take a boat trip into the Strait to look for dolphins in their natural environment. After the boat trip, enjoy free time to explore Gibraltar at your own pace. Your guide can recommend places to visit, eat, shop, or explore.

Freetime — discover Gibraltar at your own pace. Stroll along Main Street, enjoy exclusive discounts at selected stores, and soak up the British atmosphere. If you want to visit the Rock, your guide can help you organize it by foot, minibus, or taxi. Choose from the Skywalk, Great Siege Tunnels, St. Michael's Cave, the Barbary macaques, or Europa Point.

A fun fact: John Lennon married Yoko Ono here in 1969, while Sean Connery married here twice.

For lunch, ask your guide for a recommendation for Gibraltar's famous fish and chips at a typical British pub with a terrace overlooking Casemates Square. Looking for souvenirs, gifts, chocolates, or perfume? Your guide can point you towards selected shops offering exclusive discounts.
