A must-do tour! - This excursion is a must if you are visiting the Sevilla area!! Highly recommend! It's roughly a two hour drive from Sevilla.
The line through passport control moved quickly for a Saturday and then we met our tour guide, Jerome, who explained the history and our visit to the top of the Rock of Gibraltar. Very worthwhile trip!

Loved The Whole Gibraltar Experience - Not Just a Tourist, the driver and guide all communicated in a timely way from beginning to end. Mahsa made it very easy for us each to pay individually. Our driver Jose was very polite and when he had a short delay, he let us know right away. John the guide was excellent and gave us plenty of time to see the different sites. We loved Gibraltar! And we felt good being in reliable hands. It was one of the highlights on our 3 week trip abroad.

Great day at Gilbraltra - A great day trip. Jeff was our driver from Sevilla to Gilbraltra. He was extremely nice and personal. Also very patient. We were a little late getting back to his car but he was fine with it. John our driver in Gilbraltra was also
fantastic and very patient. He gave us plenty of time at each stop to enjoy. He even had peanuts for us to feed to the monkeys. They were too cute. I would definitely recommend this company.

Awesome tour! - Great tour to Gibraltar! Our Spain guide/driver Jefferson was super nice and very enthusiastic. In Gibraltar our guide/driver John was also very nice and knowledgeable. From Seville is a 2 hrs something but is all worth it.

Take this tour!! 5 Stars***** - A fantastic day with excellent driver Carlos, who picked us up promptly near our hotel in Sevilla. We had plenty to chat about on the drive to Gibraltar (and he is an excellent driver!). After parking and walking us through border control (you leave Spain to go to Gibraltar) he handed us off to taxi driver and guide Johnny. Loquacious and charming, Johnny is a native Gibraltar and knows everything about everything! The “taxi” can hold up to 8, but our private tour for just the 2 of us was worth the price. It was such a fun time learning the history of the place, seeing and learning about the maquaques and the rock itself. Had the best steak in Spain at lunch and then a relaxing drive back with Carlos at the wheel (we are not shoppers, but would have had time for that in the big square in town). I would highly recommend this tour for the personal touch and value of the experience.

Amazing Gibraltar - Alfonso, our driver in Spain, as well as Luis, our tour guide in Gibraltar, were both excellent and made the trip come alive with their knowledge and insights. Seeing Gibraltar was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend this trip.

Exceptional and Fun Tour - This tour is exceptional. Jose Luis is a local and he understands the history, the people, the culture from a lived experience. The Rock of Gibraltar is a must see. My family of 3 loved this experience.

Super Gibraltar trip - Carlos, the driver and storyteller, was great. Took care of us and got us over the border in under 15 minutes after the roughly 2.5 hours drive which was rich with countryside. He handed us off to Luis to see Gibraltar.
Luis maneuvered in and out of the tiny areas up the rock and within the city so easily. He had great history and tips on how to deal with the monkeys. Leave your food in the vehicle unless you want monkeys all over you. Super pictures with them and the rock along with exploring. This is about 2 hours. Then lunch and shopping for roughly 2 hours.
Carlos got us back to town with no problems and on time. Can I go more than 5 stars?

First visit to Gibraltar - This tour was okay, but nothing special, aside from St Michaels Caves. It was a long time in the car (my driver Jose was superb) and then a confusing passing through the passport checkpoint. We didn’t spend much time in any one spot and also didn’t really see town. There wasn’t proper guidance about how to be around the monkeys (don’t carry food, be watchful that they will go after your things, etc) and it was a bit chaotic and I didn’t feel that safe with the monkeys honestly. The whole thing felt very expensive with limited value.

Mal tour - When I bought the tour they didn't say you had to have a visa for Gibraltar, they said the passport had to be stamped for entry to the community, but when we arrived at the border they demanded a visa, Gibraltar is supposed to belong to the United Kingdom and as Colombians we don't need a visa to enter, but they demanded it, it is also going to see a rock that only has pig monkeys, it is expensive and not worth it, the only rescueable thing of the tour was the person who transported us, Caridad was very friendly and we felt very comfortable with it.
