Gibraltar Dolphins by Boat and Historical Walking Tour

Gibraltar is a unique Mediterranean gem teeming with history and marine wonder. Look out for playful dolphins when you head out on the waves, and find out the history of Gibraltar on a walking tour of the town. As Orazio, one of our expert local guides, puts it, 'We'll pass by The Convent, the official residence of His Excellency the Governor, who is the monarch's representative in Gibraltar. If you're lucky you'll witness a changing of the guard, Gibraltar's version of the daily parade outside Buckingham Palace.'

Start with the Dolphin Tour, where you'll go out into the waters around Gibraltar by boat and with luck, you'll have the chance to see up close the playful dolphins that call these waters home. Next, we invite you to step back in time with our Walk Through History tour. Starting at Landport Gate, the historic entrance to Gibraltar's fortification, you'll be led through Casemates Square and up Irish Town, each step revealing more about Gibraltar's diverse past.

Take a look at Bomb House Lane's distinctive architecture and pay your respects at Trafalgar Cemetery, final resting place for many sailors lost during the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. You'll hear tales of Moorish, Spanish, and British rule, as shared by our knowledgeable guides. Finally, it's time for some retail therapy along Main Street, Gibraltar's bustling commercial hub. Here you'll find duty-free shops offering everything from luxury goods to souvenirs.
