★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 590 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $153

Gibraltar day trip from Seville, with guided Rock views, St. Michael's Cave, Barbary apes, and free town time.

“Firstly, our guide, Carlos, was absolutely, flat-damn excellent in every regards. Could not have asked for a better guide. The ride was very comfortable and safely accomplished via a wonderful driver, Manuel. Also, we stopped going/coming at a great convenience store for bathroom breaks, coffee, food, etc. But have to point out a bit of a problem: ticket instructions for pickup were contradictory and provided wrong times for pickup.

“Overall, I enjoyed the tour--I got to spend almost 5 hours exploring Gibraltar and seeing the highlights. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The bus driver got us through narrow streets with millimeters to spare--amazing! However, people complained that the guide spoke too much--at first she did her schpiel in English and Spanish then learned we had French and Germans on board so said everything in 4 languages! What I didn't like is that Malaga city pick up was at one central location (4 km from where I was staying) but 3 different parties staying in different parts of Torremolinos got picked up/dropped off in front of their hotels.

We also visited St. Michael’s cave which was amazing. The monkeys were adorable and our guide made sure we were able to safely interact with them. Gibraltar also has great shopping deals 👍.
