Day Trip to Gibraltar

Day Trip to Gibraltar from Islantilla

At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from Islantilla and set out on an approximately three and a half hour journey before reaching the border with Gibraltar. This border between British and Spanish territory has been the cause of many political disputes throughout history.

We'll cross into British territory and start our tour. First, you'll have a panoramic view of the Rock and St Michael's Cave, a true natural gem with hundreds of legends to be discovered throughout the day.

Next, we'll head to Europa Point. This is the most southern tip of Gibraltar, and from here you'll have incredible views of the Bay of Algeciras, and on a clear day, you can even see as far as Africa. At the highest point, you'll be able to see the Shrine of Our Lady of Europe and the Ibrahim-al-Ibrahim mosque, clearly showing the mixture of cultures on this small territory.

At Europa Point, you'll also be able to make friends with the famous monkeys; the only primates that live in freedom in Europe. You'll then have some free time to have lunch in one of the restaurants in the centre (the fish and chips are delicious here!) or you could make the most of the territory's Free Port status to go shopping with considerable savings to be made.
