Excellent experience in Gibraltar with Carl! - Carl was excellent! Very knowledgeable and shared a lot of history. He was patient with the questions and when we took a couple of minutes longer than planned at two of the stops. He also knows the monkeys very well and the young ones actually come to him. This was great because other guides did not do this for their tours. We appreciated his advice on restaurants after the tour. Great tour and guide!

Excellent Rock of Gibraltar tour - This was a great tour. Carl was very knowledgeable about Gibraltar since he has lived there his entire life. We had several questions before the tour and Carl and Francene were very prompt in answering all of our questions. We had a hard time finding the parking deck so I called Francene and she sent me a link that took us right to the parking area. Carl made the trip fun and interesting and he even got one of the smaller monkeys to sit on my hands which was an extra treat. I would definitely recommend this tour. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Gibraltar in a Day – A Perfect Family Adventure from Our Cruise! - We’re a family of four who visited Gibraltar as part of our cruise, along with our two teenage daughters – and they absolutely loved it! Our private tour with a knowledgeable local tour driver, David, was the perfect way to see all the hidden gems. He shared so many interesting facts about Gibraltar’s history, culture, and landmarks. From red phone boxes and fish and chip shops to Mediterranean-style buildings, Gibraltar offers such a fun blend of British and Spanish influences. One of the most fascinating highlights was the airport runway – it’s the only one in the world that intersects with a main road. We actually walked across it on foot, which felt surreal! The road closes each time a plane takes off or lands, just like a railroad crossing – such a cool thing to witness. We also explored the Upper Rock, home to the famous Barbary macaques – the only wild monkeys in Europe. They were surprisingly bold and curious, even jumping on our heads! The kids had a blast, and it’s definitely a memory we’ll laugh about for years. Overall, it was a brilliant experience for the whole family. Highly recommended – especially if you’re arriving by cruise and want to make the most of a short visit!

Exceptional tour & guide...you won't be disappointed!!! - Stop - look no further...you've found the best! We spent a delightful morning touring the rock in a beautiful Mercedes van, seating for 8. I failed to write down our guide's name - he's the one in the picture (sorry) - he's a one man show so it's a minor detail. Loved the tour and hearing the details of his country was priceless. You could hear every word since he had a mic he was talking into as he was driving. There was an adventure around every corner and this man knew how to maneuver around before the crowds invaded our private tour. Extremely professional and knowledgeable - he made us fall in love with Gibraltar. We even got to wave to his wife as we were passing by his residence, overlooking the sea. What an awesome guy!

Fantastic Tour! - I had organized 3 vans for this tour from our cruise ship. When we walked off the ship the drivers were waiting and wisked us away before the rest of the buses disembarked. Everyone was thrilled with the tours, the guides, all the sights we saw and how well the tours were organized, minimal crowds and easy access to everything! This was my second time in Gibralter and I saw much I had not seen before. I highly recommend this company for your visit to Gibralter and this tour was a wonderful overview to see the island!

Amazing 3 1/2 hours tour. - We took the 3 1/2 hour tour and did not get bored for 1 minute. Our driver Chris was awaiting us at the border. We were 15 minutes early but he was already awaiting us. Super clean car, super friendly driver, lots of small extra information during the drive. Always perfectly in front of the entrance and ready for us at the exit. Time flew by so fast! We asked to be dropped of in the city center and he told us about a small harbor where you can find some small restaurants outside the busy city center. Thank you Chris for a wonderful experience!
