Highlights
The Rock is a British overseas territory located on a small peninsula at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, bordering only Spain. It is historically recognized as the southernmost point of Europe and sits at the western end of the Mediterranean, forming one of the ancient columns of Hercules. The Rock is primarily made of Jurassic limestone, dating back around 200 million years. Upon arrival, we’ll visit the famous Apes’ Den and explore the stunning Saint Michael’s Caves. Afterward, enjoy free time for tax-free shopping on Main Street or uncover hidden gems such as the Gibraltar Museum or the narrow streets and historic buildings of the old town. Take time to soak in the unique atmosphere of this fascinating destination, blending nature, history, and culture, all within a compact yet fascinating landscape.

2Get on the coach first...
Get on the coach first because as a couple we were separated. Only got 20 minutes in the cave which felt very rushed and only a 5 minute stop to see the monkeys!! Very disappointing.
4A pleasant day trip
It was a lovely experience. The guide was quite informative about the history of the area. There were two cruise ships docked, so it was a bit crowded. The only negative thing I can say is that the bus trip is so long because we made 8 stops to pick up more people. I was at the first stop which means on the return trip those on the bus first were last to reach their stop. I don’t know that there’s a solution for this, but be aware of it before you go.
4Didn’t go to the top
I had been to Gibraltar before but not on a tour. It went well until we realized that the bus wasn’t going to take us to the top- the absolute best part with an amazing view. It was VERY disappointing
5Beautiful views.
Gibralter was quite a tourist trap. But, we enjoyed the trip up the mountain (even though a bit scary!). The monkeys were fun, St. Michael's Cave was very cool. The views were incredible. Just avoid the shopping in town!
5We had a fantastic time...
We had a fantastic time on the Gibraltar Classic Rock Tour from Costa del Sol! It was a wonderful way to see Gibraltar and experience the beautiful scenery and unique history of the area. Our tour was well organized, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Costa del Sol!
5Highly recommended. Look for Tania
The tour operator was great, send messages a day before to confirm location and time for pickup. They were a little behind schedule but communication was helpful and removed any concerns.

About Malaga
Málaga is a sunny Andalusian port on the Costa del Sol, the birthplace of Picasso, with a Moorish fortress, city beaches and a thriving museum scene.
The Alcazaba, a Moorish fortress-palace, climbs the hill above the old town, with Gibralfaro Castle higher still and views over the port and bay. At its foot lie the Roman Theatre and the cathedral, nicknamed La Manquita, the one-armed lady, because its second tower was never finished.
Top-ranked sights in Malaga: Malaga Alcazaba, Malaga Cathedral (Cathedral de la Encarnación), Constitution Square (Plaza de la Constitucion).
