• An unforgettable amazing experience!

  This was such a great experience! My partner and I enjoyed this even more than we thought we would. The mix of history, nature, physicality and the most amazing views, all with a fantastic guide and host in Stephen. A moderate amount of fitness is required, and even then it is challenging, but it is also very rewarding and provides a great sense of achievement on completion. There is a mix of hills and steps, bitumen and rocks and shade and sun. We brought a 600ml water each but I would recommend taking more, at least a 1.25 litre water each. And do wear a hat and sunscreen. We began right on time, steadily working our way up and we saw some cute monkeys after only a short while! There were many historical sites that we stopped at, and Stephen was a wealth of information at every turn. I particularly enjoyed learning about the defense history but also learning all about how Gibraltar functions today independently of the UK and Spain. It was all super interesting and the hike would not have been anywhere near as enjoyable without Stephen guiding the way and providing the backstory for all that we saw. He also took us into St.Michaels cave and the WW2 tunnels which were so impressive. You do pay another £30 (by card only) to gain access to the rock/nature reserve and are provided with an access wristband but it's still a great value afternoon out. There are also toilets on the route for convenience. The views from the top were incredible! I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. It is for sure one of the absolute highlights of our trip and we will be talking about it for a long time. Thank you so much Stephen for taking us up and showing us your amazing backyard

• Incredibly Mediterran Trail - Upper Rock

  I went on the Upper Rock walking tour with Stephen. We met at the library in Gibraltar and then hiked up to the National Park. It’s a hiking tour, and that’s what makes it special. At first, I wondered where all the tourists were, as you don’t come across many on the way up. You only meet them at the main attractions. The hike up is strenuous, though I wasn’t feeling particularly fit that day either. But the view and the feeling are definitely worth it. Stephen took me along the Mediterranean Trail. It was incredibly beautiful. Stephen is a very nice, laid-back chap and, apart from information about the history of the mountain, you can also ask him about Gibraltar. It was fun hiking up there with Stephen – thank you, Stephen!

• The ultimate experience to discover even the hidden beauties of the Rock.

  The ultimate experience to discover even the hidden beauties of the Rock. Me and my GF booked the tour deirectly with Stephe's website. He was open ond communicative from the the very first moment, providing useful hints and adjusting the tour to our needs. We had a great tour, a fantastyc day over there. Stephen is a great and very much professional guide, sharing his deep knowledge of history and modern days of Gibraltar. We were taken to all major sights plus to hidden gems that those poor guys are taken by a taxi to the top are surely missed. We had to drive back to Seville, so there was no time to see the tunnels much to our regret. We got chnce to come back after all. See you there again Stephen this autumn or next spring.

  

  

• Wonderful, memorable experience!

  This is, admittedly, a strenuous hike, but it was the perfect way to experience the "Rock of Gibraltar". Stephen proved to be a wonderful guide; his knowledge of the area and its history greatly enriched our day. We were so glad we chose this tour instead of riding to the top in a taxi (as most people do). I highly recommend this tour for anyone else not wanting to "ride to the top". It's truly a fun, memorable way to experience Gibraltar.

  We had a great time on our tour with Stephen. Finding the meet up spot was very clear and Stephen was an excellent guide with knowledge about everything from WWII to everyday life in Gibraltar. The tour did not feel rushed and Stephen was willing to go at whatever pace worked with the group. I’d highly recommend this tour.

• Outstanding even in the fog

  This was a fantastic tour and Stephen was exceptional. While it is a challenging climb up the Rock to the top, as two people in our mid-sixties, we would highly recommend it to others… especially those interested in WWII. The only reason we did not give it 5 stars is because we had a rainy, foggy day which impeded some of our views. Even under those conditions, we would highly recommend this once in a lifetime tour.

• Discovery on foot of Gibraltar Reserve

  Beautiful discovery of the Rock, we didn't know what to expect so we loved learning the history of Gibraltar while discovering the nature reserve with its many monkeys, the illuminated stalactite caves and the incredible tunnels used for wars. The friendly exchanges with Stephen (who took care to speak English adapted to our level) made us forget the sporting side because the elevation gain is impressive.
