We arrived around 11:00am at Gibraltar and had no delays crossing into the UK. It hadn’t occurred to us of course that some UK sterling might have been convenient but fortunately, everywhere seemed to accept Euros as well as pounds.<\/p>\n

We were booked on an Island coach tour – the campsite had charged 35 Euros per head for the day and this included the coach from Conil to Gibraltar and the excursion around the island. This seemed pretty good value for money and I think had we done the trip independently it would have been somewhat more expensive.<\/p>\n

The excursion took in all the sites and wound its leisurely way to the top of the rock. Stopping at all the key historical sites and entry to St Michael’s cave at the top of the rock was also included.<\/p>\n

Lunch was at an Irish bar and the afternoon was spent walking around Gibraltar. Lots of cheap Whisky on offer but we didn’t take advantage of the low prices.<\/p>\n

There is also the possibility to take the cable car to the top of the rock. Here’s a picture of the cable car and in the distance one can see the Gibraltar airport runway which crosses the main road to the island. Cars and pedestrians need to queue when a plane is taking off or landing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
