As a native Gibraltarian, I know this little lump of limestone better than most, watching it grow out of a fortress into the 21st century. So why not discover the rocks' highlights (and macaques) with me!
You will be taken ≈ 430 metres high as your guide talks you through the sights, sounds and story of Gibraltar. This tour has something for everyone, whether you are a nature lover, a history buff, or you just want to see the only wild Macaques in Europe.
By choosing to travel with a local guide rather than independently or in a large group, you get the best of both worlds. I strive to give detailed historical explanations and am always ready to answer any questions, giving you peace of mind (and body).
With spectacular views, wildlife, history and knowledge on offer, your tour of such a famous British overseas territory is sure to be incredible.
If any part of this tour doesn't quite take your fancy, contact me, I will be happy to make personalised adjustments.
