Gibraltar is best appreciated on foot, in the company of a knowledgeable guide.
Learn about the natural wonders, local flora and fauna, splendid views, and military fortifications of Gibraltar. By cable car, it's a short panoramic ride to the top.
View the huge catchment area and Catalan Bay before walking along a wooded path to admire St Michael's Cave. A technology-led installation creates a brand-new immersive experience inside the natural attraction. The Awakening highlights the history of the famous cave, explaining how the geological formation came to be through 360° light projection combined with immersive spatial audio.
A minibus will take you to the Apes' Den, home of the Barbary apes.
Visit Princess Caroline's Battery and the entrance to the Upper Galleries. This labyrinth of tunnels inside the Rock includes the Great Siege Tunnels, excavated during the Great Siege of 1779-83. These are possibly the most impressive defensive system ever devised by man.
You will drive past the Moorish Castle and enter the heart of the city.
Guests wishing to stay in town and do some duty-free shopping are welcome to return to the ship on their own.
Notes:
The cable car is a popular attraction; expect delays. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Due to transportation constraints, scooters, wheelchairs, and walkers cannot be accommodated on tour. You can use your mobility aid to reach the transportation; then, it will be stored in the cruise terminal until you return from your tour. The Cable Car can experience long queues during peak hours. The Cable Car can also close at short notice due to winds and could result in last-minute cancellation of tours.
