Gibraltar again after 18 years….. - I’ve been to Gibraltar many times with the military, last time was around 18 years ago. My companion had never been. Wow how this place has changed!!!! First off the passport control on the Spanish side is still a nightmare, at least the tunnel under the runway has been built so that a positive.
Gibraltar town is nothing like it used to be, now it’s designer shops, restaurants that all seem to be serving English fish and chips, which as a Brit wasn’t really what we were looking for. A lot of the bars that used to be there are mostly gone, replaced with barbers and designer shops. I found the town had lost a lot of the charm it used to have.
The high rise blocks of flats are out of control I thought, obviously land is a premium but it just felt too many in a small space.
Took the tour up the rock which was priced at £60 per person, quite frankly over priced for what you got. We only took this as short on time otherwise I’d have walked up. A lot of the history boards on the walk up can only be read if you walk up, so if you want to learn more of the history walk…..
All in all as I had been before it went tourist mad I wasn’t overly impressed. My companion liked the place but would come again on his own to do the internal tours of the rock.

Make sure that you know what you are getting into! - My husband and I took this tour from Malaga in order to obtain transportation to and from Gibraltar. The bus ride took approximately two hours each way and was an efficient way to get there. Our guide Laura was helpful and informative.
Due to the size of the group, we were towards the end of the line when were boarded and were separated. We did not complain about this, but Laura shifted passengers around, and we were seated together. It was rather awkward.
We have been to Europe several times and have taken many day tours. Sometimes, it is difficult to anticipate the level of activity that will be involved.
Prior to beginning our vacation, I had sustained a back injury, which was in the healing stages. We are very active seniors, and I had underestimated that this would be too much for me. This was no one's fault. Upon arriving in Gibraltar, we had a lengthy walk from the bus, to passport control, and to the main square. Coming from the US, our passports took longer to process than the rest of the group. It seemed that we were always rushing to catch up with everyone.
We knew that the cable cars to the top of the rock were being repaired, but we thought that we would be able to take a private taxi and see the sights that we wanted to on our own. This is not the case at present. To do this, you have to get into a group van that holds 8 persons and follow the planned itinerary.
For the grand price of approximately $165. USD, we paid for this experience.
The first stop was the Pillars of Hercules, and this overlook was very nice. The second stop was entering the Caves of St. Michael. These are interesting, but I quickly realized that they are very dark and slippery. The gentleman who admitted us allowed us a chance to look around and exit. When we did so, our taxi was no where in sight. We did not realize that he had advanced to the exit. We had to walk up a hill to meet up with him, and it was very embarrassing. He admonished us, saying that he had made this clear. I guess that we missed this.
The third stop was the Skywalk, which involved walking up and down several steps to an overlook, and then walking up a hill to (again) meet the taxi. I declined and stayed in the cab. The driver ignored me, and I felt that he was more than rude. I was mortified. We sat together for a very long 30 minutes while he was on the phone. Eventually, our group came back together and went to the final stop, the tunnels of WW 11. He just drove my husband and me back to downtown Gibraltar and walked away from us. This was a very humiliating experience for me, and certainly was not a good "customer experience". For a 2 hour tour, this is not what we had anticipated and his impatience was more than rude.
Granted, it was no one's fault that me back was "acting up", but a little understanding would have gone a long way.
We returned to casemates square, enjoyed a light snack and a glass of wine, met up with our group and reversed our walk back to the tour bus.
For the remainer of our stay in Malaga, we wisely decided that any day excursions were not in our plans. We spent time on the beach and took short bus trips to coastal towns on our own.
When we got off our tour bus at Old Town Malaga, Laura did ask me if I was ok, and offered to call a cab for me. I said that "I was fine", and that we were going to enjoy a meal at a tapas restaurant. She offered some suggestions.
Since I have to "own my pain", my only complaint is the fact that Get Your Guide knows the taxi drivers in Gibraltar and sets up these excursions to the top of the Rock. They should know who they are dealing with and be more "customer oriented".
All in all, it was an embarrassing day.

Great day, but be aware that the cable car is out of action for a couple of years !! - Great trip, possibly an extra hour or two would be even better.
Be aware that the cable car is out of action for a couple of years !!

That was the worst trip ever! Absolutely not recommended. - Worst trip of my life. The excursion started at 7 a.m. It took 3.5 h from Malaga to Gibraltar. The microphone of the bus had an annoying wobble contact, it hurt in the ears every time the guide spoke.
The guide informed us 0% about Gibraltar; it was a pure transport there and a pick up back.
On site you had 5 hours to spend alone.
Tickets were sold on the bus for the Rock! HERE BEWARE! The guide takes 60 for this! Euro. On site, however, you can walk up the mountain independently within 20 minutes, or get off for 1.80 euros by bus within 6 minutes at the entrance to the Rock of Gibraltar, where you pay only 30 euros admission.
Absolute shit! Never book ciaooooo
