Description and Itinerary
Discover one of the Mediterranean’s most distinctive destinations on our small-group day trip to Gibraltar from Málaga. Spend the day exploring its blend of British and Mediterranean culture, landscapes, nature and popular shopping areas.
After travelling from Málaga, you can choose to spend all your time in Gibraltar at leisure, deciding how to enjoy your day, or take a 1-hour-and-30-minute guided panoramic tour of some of Gibraltar’s most iconic sights. Along the route, we will visit Camp Bay, the artificial Europa Waterfall and Europa Point, where, on clear days, you can see the Strait of Gibraltar and the African coast, with outstanding views of the King Fahd Bin Abdulaziz al-Saud Mosque and the famous Rock of Gibraltar. We will then continue to Catalan Bay, stopping briefly to admire its colourful houses, before finishing at the Alameda Botanical Gardens, a peaceful botanical garden at the foot of the Rock.
After the Gibraltar 360° panoramic tour, you will have free time in Gibraltar’s town centre to explore Main Street, discover squares such as Casemates Square and historic buildings, sample its varied cuisine and famous fish and chips, or browse the shops.
You can also enhance your day trip with optional experiences. Your guide will help you arrange these during the journey to Gibraltar:
*Visit the Upper Rock Nature Reserve: explore St Michael’s Cave, meet Gibraltar’s famous macaques and enjoy the views from Queen Elizabeth’s viewpoint.
