What To Expect

1

The Rock of Gibraltar

The Rock of Gibraltar is full of interesting history dating back to the year 711A.D when Tarik Ibn Zeyad, a Berber leader of the Arab Governor of North Africa “Musa Ibn Nosseyer” landed at the Southern end of the rock. The word Gibraltar is a derivative of the Arabic words ”Jebel Tarik” which means Tariks Mountain, and so his memory lives on.

    Long day on the road but well worth it. A magical destination with rich history. Kids loved the border crossing, lunch “in the UK,” all the shopping and of course the monkeys. Petra was very knowledgeable!

  • Rock of Gibraltar Day Trip

    We had a great time and really enjoyed the long day exploring the Rock of Gibraltar. Everything we did throughout the day matched our expectations, and the entire experience was well organized from start to finish. We appreciated that there were several stops along the way for restrooms and food, which made the day much more comfortable and enjoyable. One of the highlights was definitely seeing the monkeys. They were so entertaining! In fact, one of them got a little too bold and stole our bag to get to the chips inside. It gave us all a good laugh and made for a memorable story to take home. While we didn’t make it all the way to the top of the Rock, we hadn’t planned on it, so it wasn’t a disappointment. There was still plenty to see and do, and we felt like we got a full experience without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a fun, interesting, and satisfying day that gave us a great taste of what Gibraltar has to offer.

    This trip was advertised as a visit to the Rock of Gibraltar, as shown in the promotional picture. When I purchased my ticket, I was enthusiastic about riding a cable car or eventually a gondola, up the Rock , and enjoying the experience as depicted. Unfortunately, the tour had very little to do with the Rock itself. Although the trip lasts 10 hours, once you arrive in Gibraltar, you're left on your own to wander through numerous gift shops—many of questionable quality—for about two hours. After that, another company takes over to show you the Rock: a brief five-minute stop to see some monkeys, followed by a rushed 20-minutes visit to a cave. When I asked whether we would reach the summit of the Rock, as advertised, I was told that the promotional photo was just for marketing purposes and that there was no actual cable car ride included. It felt misleading, as the main highlights of Gibraltar were not delivered. Spending 10 hours to see only about 25 minutes of notable sights hardly seems worth the time or money. Still, if you're curious to visit Gibraltar, I would recommend lowering your expectations.

  • Day Trip: Yup, worth it

    Fascinating place! Views beyond breathtaking. Cave light show certainly left an impression. Made friends with a very curious monkey. Only a short time there (4hrs?) but VERY high quality memory which speaks volumes beyond that.

    This is a tough review to write because I feel like I can’t rate the tour accurately because it’s 2 different companies. The tour started off out of Seville on a nice tour bus and a very nice tour guide. Half way through the 3 hour ride they pull off at a rest stop for snacks and bathrooms, then the bus drops you off at the border to go through customs. You walk through customs, then across the flight landing strip, then into the city at a pace of about half the speed of smell (maybe 2km/hr…. maybe.) until you get to a giant tourist trap where you have 2.5ish hours to shop/eat. If you want perfume, tobacco, or liquor, this is great for you. If you’re on the tour to see Gibraltor, no. This is where the hitch is, apparently the tour guide from Seville is not allowed to guide in Gibraltor, so they may or not accompany you when you’re handed off to a different tour company for the things you actually came to see. This is where the experience is ruined. We were loaded on a bus and raced around the rock so fast I’m surprised I don’t have whiplash (and I’m not exactly a slow driver myself). The tour guide and overhead recording give brief overviews of what’s appearing out the sides of the bus, but by the time they’re telling you, you’ve already passed it. You get 10 minutes at the Europa point, which in actuality is 7 minutes. Then you’re back on the raceway up the mountain to what you actually are taking a 6 hour round trip journey to see: the caves and monkeys…. Of which you get 20 MINUTES TOTAL to see. We were quite literally running out of the cave to make sure we got 5-10 minutes to (maybe) see monkeys, which we luckily did. Then you’re back in the Nascar death trap back to the city. It honestly felt like the driver/Gibraltor guide was annoyed at the group for existing, as if he was fitting us in between real tours. Then they drop you off right at the border (tires basically screeching) and don’t let the door hit you on your way out to a 3 hour ride back to Seville with the nice guide who can speak again. I realized on the way back that we actually spent more time at the rest stop than we did doing the thing we went there to do, since we stopped at the same rest stop for another 20 minutes. I went back to review the itinerary to make sure my complaining isn’t due to not reading the plan. The itinerary says 40 minutes on the rock of Gibraltor…. This was the rollercoaster ride around the rock, DURING WHICH the 20 minutes of St. Michaels Cave occurs, which is actually 5-10 minutes of cave time if you want to see any monkeys in 5-10 minutes. Tl;dr Don’t waste your time or money if you actually want to see Monkeys, St. Michaels Cave, or the Rock of Gibraltor (other than shopping).
