About this experience
Experience a private full-day tour to Gibraltar from Málaga or Marbella. This excursion is designed for your group, with hotel pickup included and a local guide to manage all logistics. Your day will feature encounters with Barbary macaques, the only wild monkey population in Europe, at the Rock. You will visit St. Michael's Cave, a natural limestone cavern with formations dating back 1.5 million years. Explore the Great Siege Tunnels, 18th-century artillery emplacements hand-carved into the Rock face, and enjoy views from Europa Point, the southernmost tip of Gibraltar where Morocco is visible across the Strait on clear days. Witness the unique runway crossing where planes taxi across the main road. There will also be free time in town for duty-free shopping and enjoying British pubs on Main Street. A valid passport is required for each member of your group. This tour is conducted by Costa Excursions, a private operator based in Mijas since 2012, with a solid reputation reflected in their 4.9★ rating on TripAdvisor and over 175 reviews.

3
St. Michael's Cave
The next site is St Michael’s Cave. Which sees thousands of visitors a year wandering through its huge caverns with just a few steps and easy access. This amazing, natural phenomenon created by rainwater slowly seeping through the limestone rock, turning into a weak carbonic acid which gradually dissolved the rock millions of years ago.
4
Skywalk
Next, we will go to the top of the Rock, and there we will do 2 things: The glass viewing platform called The Skywalk, and visit the monkeys. The Skywalk is a former military lookout transformed into a state-of-the-art glass platform and walkway giving spectacular views across the Mediterranean. An unbroken 360º panoramic viewpoint. Enter the 360º environment and get a feel for the freedom and exhilaration you will experience at The Skywalk.

The Great Siege Tunnels
From the top of the rock, we will drive to the north side of the Rock to visit the Great Siege Tunnels, something not to be missed. This site explains a lot of the history of Gibraltar under siege. The tunnels were carved out of the rock by hand during the Great Siege which took place between 1779-1783. This was done in order to defend Gibraltar against the Spanish and French forces who were trying to recapture Gibraltar from the British.
