Here you have to walk across the runway if you want to go to Gibraltar. It's really strange. You can watch the planes or helicopters taking off and landing here.

Gibraltar was on the agenda today. From our accommodation in La Linea de Concepción, we took a taxi to the Gibraltar border. With our ID cards, we went through border control, as we were leaving the EU, and in no time we were in the British Overseas Territory.

Our destination was the Rock of Gibraltar, a 426-meter-high limestone monolith.

Hi Komootler, today we had made Gibraltar and it was a real highlight. There are 3 options for this tour. By taxi from 25 euros, with an e-bike, or hiking. We opted for the hike and saw the most that way. The monkeys are well known, but the cave exceeded all expectations. Admittedly, it was a bit exhausting with the …

From a "Let's go to Gibraltar, pack your swimming trunks!" then became a warm up for the 4 Day Walk of Marbella. 🤪🐵

I love those days when nothing is planned.
The car was parked on the Spanish side of the Gibraltar border and off we went.
I won't write anything further, because I'm pretty broken and so I'll let …

Self-guided excursion to Gibraltar. 🇬🇮 Of course, no assistance like cable cars, taxis, or other touristy things. Two feet are enough 💁🏻‍♂️😆

After crossing the Spanish-British border into Gibraltar (GBZ), we took a shuttle service to the southernmost point of Europe, overlooking Morocco. Afterwards, we visited a huge stalactite cave with a fantastic light show. The journey continued higher and higher up the cliffs to amazing viewpoints and the Barbary macaques. These macaques are very trusting, but also extremely dangerous, as they …

A great tour on Gibraltar comes to an end. I just let Komoot keep running as we drove up the mountain to the stalactite cave and the monkey rock. Now go back over the border to Spain 🇪🇸 on Gibraltar there is right-hand traffic. If you like it, you can shop endlessly in the city. Main Street is said to …

Today we are to Gibraltar. Even if it's British, you can enter as an EU citizen with your ID. Please walk, car is not recommended. Parking is expensive but definitely less hassle. I didn't like Gibraltar itself, very loud, turbulent, cramped (of course). The currency is the pound, the euro is rarely accepted, the most common means of payment is …

You can park on a large P in front of the border and take the bus into the city. Or drive across the border by car. There are free P. But I stood at the border for half an hour when entering and exiting.
