What You Will Visit:

Apes Den:
The tailless monkeys also known as Barbary apes are the only free-roaming monkeys in Europe. Mysteriously inhabiting the area for centuries, they are believed to have made their way onto The Rock through underground caves or were perhaps imported by sailors and pirates who brought them over from Africa on voyages. The apes are well cared for by the Gibraltar Ornithological and Natural History Society and are given fresh food and water every day to supplement what can be found in the wild.

Great Siege Tunnels:
After years of abandonment, the World War II Great Siege Tunnels of Gibraltar were opened to the public. In 1940, Britain was at war with Italy and Germany, and the fate of Gibraltar was uncertain. British military leaders and Winston Churchill believed that Gibraltar was in great danger of an attack. To save the Rock, a massive underground fortress was built, consisting of a network of tunnels, 30 interconnecting miles, that lead to a hospital, power station, military headquarters and room to support 10,000 troops and civilians.
City Under Siege Exhibition:
Of great historical value, the City Under Siege exhibition depicts scenes of how the civilian population lived during some very hard times. They relate many fascinating stories that have been passed down through generations of how the earliest British settlers in Gibraltar coped with life.

What you See Along the Way:

Your motorcoach route passes the Moorish castle dating to the 11th century, an interesting complex of fortress walls, gates and buildings built by the Moors, and Europa Point with its 360-degree views and Trinity Lighthouse.

Shopping:

Main Street is Gibraltar's principal market district, offering duty-free shopping, a wide array of souvenirs and curio shops, as well as fashionable boutiques.
