Join the Gibraltar Highlights: Guided Day Tour from Seville and explore the best of what this region has to offer alongside a knowledgeable local guide.The excursion of Gibraltar is composed by an original visit led by a professional driver and a totally qualified professional guide who are going to bring you to the most characteristic places with astonishing views, all in the comfort of air-conditioned buses. You will be conducted through typical Mediterranean streets, where you will discover all the mysteries of the famous rock, meanwhile seeing the magnificent Arab, Spanish and Victorian buildings that make Gibraltar a magic city.
The first stop will be at the southernmost point of the so-called “Europe end” city, where you will be able to admire the lighthouse colored with English Trinity house colors, placed at 49 meters above sea level.
On a clear day from “Europe end” you will be able to see the African continent, which is situated at just 24 km at the south of Gibraltar. Gibraltar strait is the sea that divides both continents of Europe and Africa, and it’s the place where the Atlantic Ocean from the West encounters the Mediterranean Sea at the East, too.
From “Europe end” city you will be able to see the highest point of the rock, O’Hara’s battery, where you could still see a cannon that controls the highest point of the crag.
After a short sightseeing tour around the “Europe end” city, you will go back to the bus in which you will continue your visit to the next stop, Saint Michael’s cave, almost placed at the chasm of the rock, situated at 350 meters above sea level.
The cave is one of over 150 natural caves that you can find inside the rock, and from the first moment you will step on inside it, you will see amazing worth seeing stalactites and stalagmites. Moreover you will have the chance to take photos of them.
After visiting Saint Michael’s cave, you will continue your journey to the next stop, the enclosure of the famous local monkeys, the Barbary macaques. You will have the chance to walk aside these monkeys, as they are totally free to go around the rock. These monkeys are very photogenic, and, although they are used to stay near people, please be careful, because they could bite, as they are wild anyway. For this reason please do not touch or feed them (it is forbidden to feed the animals), thank you.
Your next stop would be the historic district “Casemates”, where the visit will end and you can enjoy your free time through the main streets.
