Description

Begin your tour with a visit to the 100 Ton Gun, one of the largest guns ever constructed in the late 19th century. Built by Britain to defend strategic territories, Gibraltar holds two of these massive coastal weapons.

Next, head to Europa Point, the southern tip of Gibraltar, where you can view the Strait of Gibraltar, North Africa, Morocco, the Bay of Gibraltar, and nearby Spanish coastal towns.

From here, enter the Upper Rock Nature Reserve to explore St Michael’s Cave. This network of limestone caverns was formed over millions of years by natural erosion, creating an accessible and fascinating underground environment.

Continue to the Top of the Rock for two highlights: the Skywalk, a glass platform offering uninterrupted 360-degree Mediterranean views, and the Upper Apes’ Den, home to Gibraltar’s Barbary macaques, the only wild apes in Europe.

Visit the Great Siege Tunnels next, hand-carved during the 18th-century siege, revealing Gibraltar’s military ingenuity and defense strategies against Spanish and French forces.

As you descend, see the Moorish Castle on the Rock’s eastern face, a medieval fortress symbolising Gibraltar’s complex history of conquest and control.

Finish the tour with a drive through Gibraltar’s Old Town, passing historic streets and buildings that reflect the territory’s diverse cultural heritage.
