Upper Rock Taxi Tour
The Rock, the way
a local shows it.
Most visitors queue for the cable car, shuffle round with a hundred strangers, then work out how to get back. You won't. This is your own vehicle and your own driver, collected from wherever you are and taken straight up to the apes, the viewpoints, the tunnels and the caves. No queues, no crowds, no walking miles between sights, and no working out the logistics. Just Gibraltar's best bits, at your pace, in around two hours.
The Apes and
the Views
Up into the Nature Reserve to meet Gibraltar's famous Barbary macaques, then out to the viewpoints most visitors never reach, over the Strait with Africa on the horizon. Your driver knows where the apes gather and when the light is best, and there's time to actually stop, look, and get your photos.
- Gibraltar's Barbary macaques in their natural setting
- Views over the Strait and across to Africa
- Entry to the Upper Rock Nature Reserve included
- Local knowledge throughout, never a canned script
- Unhurried, with time to take it all in
Tunnels, Caves
and the Story
The Great Siege Tunnels carved straight through the Rock, the cathedral-like chambers of St Michael's Cave, and the Pillars of Hercules looking out to two continents. These are the places that made Gibraltar what it is, and your driver tells you the story behind each one as you go.
- Great Siege Tunnels
- St Michael's Cave
- Pillars of Hercules
- The real history behind every stop

Start and finish
wherever suits you.
This is the part the cable car and the big coach tours can't offer. You decide where the day begins and where it ends, and your driver works around you.
Heading to a restaurant after? On a tight cruise window? Just tell us, and we'll shape the whole thing around it.
What's Included
Great on its own.
Even better as a full day.
The tour stands complete as it is. But plenty of guests turn it into a proper day out, and if you'd like to, we'll take care of the lot. Add lunch, a dolphin cruise, a gin tasting, whatever suits, and we'll plan it all around your tour so you don't have to lift a finger.
