A fantastic gem of a destination. A very small place, but packed with lots to see and do. A unique mix if British and Spanish feel to the location. The rock is amazing, I took the cable car up to the top of the rock explored on foot on the way down. St Michaels cave is beautiful, the monkeys were well behaved and adorable, and the siege and WW2 tunnels are amazing. The entire place has a laid back and relaxed atmosphere, It is easy to get everywhere by foot, but there is public transport available too. The boat trip to see the dolphins was worth it too. I highly reccommend 48 hours here.

Full of history and historical venues, like the WW2 tunnels. Geologically very interesting and spectacular, eg St. Michael's Cave. Take a shared taxi tour of the Rock which includes all tickets for the different attractions! We parked our car in La Linea in Spain and used taxis in Gibraltar. There is a variety of restaurants, Morroccan, Spanish, English, pub grub... Go to Queensway Quay Marina for an especially nice evening meal.

Lots to see and do, good for walking but local bus services are excellent and not too costly. Tip - don't buy bus tickets online as you can buy single, return or day hopper tickets on the bus and can now pay by card. Online you pay a service charge. Good range of restaurants. Our favourite was Nuno's on Devils Tower Road. We ate there every day apart from Monday when they're closed. On different days we had breakfast, lunch or dinner there and all was excellent. Our trip up the rock wasn't great because we didn't have a guide. Not adviseable unless you're very fit and like hiking up and down hilly roads. The map provided when you get onto the cable car isn't much use and things are much further apart than they appear. Signs were few and far between and difficult to spot. Even Google Maps struggled to find the tunnels. I would advise using one of the organised tours by taxi or mini bus if you want to see everything. The views from the top are amazing, though. Be aware that you can't buy alcohol in shops after 9pm. Also, we only found fresh milk in Morrisons. Many people say La Linea isn't worth a visit but we walked across the border and enjoyed walking round the shops and restaurants there. We also went to the beach to look back and get a different view of the rock. Everyone we came across in Gibraltar was very friendly and helpful. Everywhere was well-maintained. The only downside is the heavy traffic and accompanying smell of fumes and air pollution.

The climate suits us , not commercial . Be prepared to walk . Or use the local transport. Rock tours are rather expensive but a good experience to see the Apes , the view is well worth the trip up the rock . Eating out can be expensive.

The time was for our 30th anniversary, so we made the best of our limited time. The only thing we were not able to visit was the Jews Gate Cemetery because an approach was required from the East Side, since it was further down the Rock than the road maps showed. We appreciated everything about the experiences, and Joseph Matto of GibraltarTours.gi gave us a few unforgettable experiences, especially with the Barbary macaques.

we liked Gibraltar, although we could have been in a cornish or devon town. quirky place, everything shuts at 2pm on Saturday and most places shut on Sunday. going to the top of the rock was the highlight and we could have spent all day up there really. took a trip to spain, ( take your passport) just across the runway and had a nice stroll through the town of concepcion. A few days here is plenty, anymore and you'd run out of things to do. all pubs serve 'english food' fish and chips, sausage and mash, liver and bacon, etc etc but pop to Spain for something different
