GIBRALTAR | The Best Day Trip From Malaga, Spain

Gibraltar is a British territory, a 2 hour drive from Malaga, Spain. Gibraltar is famous for its military forts hidden within the Rock of Gibraltar, a nearly 1,400 ft tall limestone ridge jutting up from the Mediterranean sea. After going through border control and getting our passports stamped, we ate a full english breakfast and hiked to the top of The Rock. Although we took the road up to the top, we hiked down the Mediterranean steps with some of the sketchiest stairs we have ever seen.

Hi throughly enjoyed your video I am a Gibraltarian and would like to offer my apologies for the way you were all treated at the entrance to the Nature Reserve and commend you for the way you reacted and refused to let this ruin your day If you ever decided to return to my homeland please let me know and I will pick the four of you up at the frontier and drive you round the Rock By the way I appear on your video I am the cyclist with the red Gilet waiting the same as you all were to cross the airfield !

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

You are in the video! How cool is that! No way were we going to let a grouchy ticket seller ruin our day in this beautiful place. Thank you so much for the future hospitality. Traveling to Morocco is on our bucket list and taking a ferry from Gibraltar sounds like an excellent idea. We love meeting with locals and will for sure remember you and this comment when we return to the area. Thanks for watching!

[@adambrickley1119]

What's the cycling scene like there?

[@jasonsfood9838]

Can't wait to visit, looks amazing 😍

[@elieenfoster1811]

As a Gibraltarian I am very sorry you were not treated correctly up the rock by the booth employees, we are very respectful people and it is not right you were not treated well.Enjoy your hols👍❤️🙏🇬🇮

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

No worries! It was just one individual and everyone else in town were very lovely people. We would love to come back to stay longer. Maybe take the ferry to Morocco!?

[@danboonephotography6697]

I love your video... can't wait to visit in June 2023... Thanks for sharing!

[@anonnemo2504]

Glad you enjoyed your trip to one of our favourite destinations. That was a strenuous walk. I doubt I'd be able to do it these days. Great video, many thanks!

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

It's even harder when you have to run 😂. There was so much we still didn't see we may have to plan a trip back one day. Thanks for watching!

[@Neaskemenna68]

Super useful video, thanks!

[@moserruya805]

Great video, thanks.

[@valdisorlovskis7381]

Thank you for the details! Very useful as I plan to make the same trip in June 2022 while visiting Malaga. Best of luck!

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

So glad we could make your travel plans easier! Have fun in Gibraltar and make sure you give yourself enough time to make it back to the bus. 😂 Thanks for watching.

[@bobwallis1757]

SO COOL! I've said "like the rock of gibraltar"a thousand times, but this was the first video I've ever seen of it!!! THANKS

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Glad you liked it! It does feel like a location you often hear about but never thought about going or know anyone who has.

[@danusaprimusa]

Thank you! This was exactly what I needed to see! I am planing our family vacation in September and I have been wondering which bus to take back to Malaga, so this was super helpful!

[@TravelingisFREEDOM]

This seems to be a very interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!

[@caldark2005]

You guys should have stayed down there the night and really explored Gibraltar so much to see there.

[@tripodthreefoot2268]

Exactly

[@otmansassioui6591]

Cool guys

[@AdrianoJolivesi]

LOVED the video guys! I am doing this trip in six weeks and I am very excited about it. I am also planning to go to Tangier and explore a bit. LIKED & SUBBED! Much love from Sydney 🌏🦘Cheers!😉

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

Have fun nice to see

[@geshia1751]

Great video.

[@johngayton2078]

Very enjoyable and informative. Thank you

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!

[@mjfreespirit]

I just did a one-way from Malaga to La Linea de Concepción, and then onward to Cadiz Spain. Doing a taxi tour is probably the most amazing way to see everything. It’s what I did.

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

Well done guys

[@jmercikehh]

The video I needed. Huge thank you! Very useful as we will make the same trip with public transport.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Glad we could help!

[@MarkIsaacEgypt]

It's really amazing trip thank you for recording all by camera. You are really expert of making that.. Good luck.. God bless you...

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Thank you so much! We enjoy making videos everywhere we go. Thanks for watching!

[@nathantorresstanevil6958]

Hello from Gibraltar, awesome video

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Thank you!

[@edelweiss5666]

Another great video! I took the ferry from there into Morocco -FYI you get your passport stamped that shows you entered by boat). It was before internet on phones and I told my friend when I dropped her off in Spain... "this Rick Steves book says I can get to Morocco by ferry, I'm gonna try it. I love not having an itinerary.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Love this story! I was looking forward to a stamp that says we walked but it says we entered by vehicle. So far we have plane, train and vehicle. One day we will get a boat stamp!

[@kyletroy623]

you guys looked like you were in 'The Amazing Race' running down that road at the end there haha

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Well, Gibraltar was amazing and we had to race down the rock. Sign us up!

[@cruisingwithcaptaincliff]

Howdy! I was there in May 2022 via cruise. I took the cable car 1-way and walked down through the Battery, tunnel, St Michael's cave, etc. However, I didn't go down the Mediterranean steps. Heading back there again this April on new Sun Princess, and this time, I'll cross from Gibraltar to Spain and back for the stamp:). Then go up to the rock via Med Steps since ship will be there 0700 hours to 1700 hours. Did you like the black pudding? Thanks for sharing!

[@ReimaginedAdventures]

❤❤ beautiful

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

I wish we would have spent more than just a few hours there!

[@richardupton3323]

If anyone dosent want to do all this walking to see the sights the best way is to get a minibus from the centre of gibraltar. It costs 30 to 40 euros and includes travel to th top of the rock and all attractions like st michaels cave etc. The cable car alone is about 20 return.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Great info!

[@kitwong4033]

Ha Ha, we ate at Jury's too. We were told to have an English breakfast. Beware of the monkeys, they are pick pocket. We witnessed one monkey skillfully unzipped a woman's back pack and removing items. When the couple realized it and tried to take back items, the monkey scratched the woman's arm with its long nails. The couple did not do anything to provoke or attract the monkeys.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Jury's was a great find! We just happened to stumble in since it was open and had breakfast. We were a little weary of the monkeys which is why I think we did not stick around to long to film them. So much fun to see them but usually don't get that close to wildlife of any kind. Thanks for watching!

[@impuls8387]

My english lesson is done. Thanks 🙏 😊

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Thank you for watching!

[@sidramehmood1]

U must be very tierd after this much long walk

[@viviant701]

Thanks so much for sharing! would u mind sharing details on how to buy the bus tickets please? Thanks!

[@shademanirvanipour6870]

I am due to go to Malaga soon

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

We drove from Portugal to see we’d two weeks in albuferia from toronto

[@heidigyorfi115]

Did you have any issues with the Avanza buses or did everything go smoothly? Loved the video thank you for all the infos!🙏

[@MyFriendlyPup]

I think most of the subs came for vanlife in a class B. We stayed for SUVlife and that was a challenge. This travel vlog is good but I'm not subbed to any travel vlogs aside from this. I'm thankful for the travel content in vehicles. God bless.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Sad to see a sub go! Although we grew to really love van life and may return to living in a vehicle in the future, our current travel is what we always dreamed of doing. Our story began in a vehicle, but budget travel in all forms is what we enjoy sharing with the world. Thanks for watching.

[@MLVL312]

I'm from the U.K But lived in Gibraltar many years ago, a shame you couldn’t spend longer there is a lot more to see, Many fun British bars and restaurants, Main Street King street, The bastions, caves More roads tunnelled in the rock then roads on the outside, the British tunnelled since 1701-14. The whole thing is a fortress since the battle of Trafalgar controlling the strategic bottleneck of the Mediterranean . It was also the staging point for the invasion of Spain by the Moorish in 711, Maybe next time you can spend longer, also Shame about the ticket guys' attitude as Gibraterinas are usually very friendly.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

We would love to go back to Gibraltar for more than just a day trip! So much history and things to see in one place. Thanks for watching!

[@tripodthreefoot2268]

I'm next, please let's book this trip again guys

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

Time of years

[@queeryus]

What time was your return bus ticket? We're just wondering so that we can book a later return in order to spend more time in Gibraltar.

[@mjfreespirit]

I hope you didn’t miss St. Michael’s Cave. It was beautiful

[@sanctuaryhut2314]

😊Hi can I hv the online link where you purchased your bus tickets please. Thank you . I am going in August busy most of the online sites don’t allow me to book in advance . Appreciate your help 🙏🏽

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

Cold what time of year

[@DVaccarelli1988]

You know that in the UK, people drive on the left, but in the UK territory of Gibraltar, people still drive on the right.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Very cool! We rode in the taxi and didn't even notice. If they drove on the right in Gibraltar, it would make driving across the tarmac even more interesting.

[@DVaccarelli1988]

@@SOSASATSUNRISE When you meant that they drove on the right, that would mean that the steering wheel would be on the right, like in a UK vehicle. The taxi that you guys were in was a Ford Transit Custom, which is a mid sized version of the Transit that's not sold in the US & Canada.

[@NinjaMonkeyguy]

Glad you liked my hometown! Sorry about your experience getting into the nature reserve. I hope you found value in the money. BTW I always walk up the med step and then down the roads. Did you do the cave?

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

We never let just one sour person ruin our day! We unfortunately did not get to the cave. After reading all of the comments coming from the locals, we have a lot of reason to come back and stay for more than a day trip. Thanks for watching!

[@NinjaMonkeyguy]

@@SOSASATSUNRISE Hope you make it! Let me know and I'll give you a tour,, Im a content creator myself

[@zorda46]

Great video! Please mention the name and website of the company you purchased your bus tickets. Looking forward to visit Gibraltar in July! Thank you

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

1:53

[@coolcalm1111]

​@SOSASATSUNRISE yes but we cannot understand what you are saying! 😢

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

Tour bus stops as stour and go in cave we see all the marble in side

[@stephenchappell7512]

'Welcome to the United Kingdom' it's actually not the UK but a 'BOT' (British Overseas Territory) the difference being that BOT's tend to be self governing only reliant on the UK for foreign affairs and defence

[@Milkedsplooge]

Does the Spanish and Gibraltar immigration stamp your passport on arrival or exit?

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

I think our stamps show us leaving La Linea in Spain and then returning. No U.K. stamps unfortunately. We like our stamps!

[@Firesword3OOO]

Was this pre-trucker strike? I'm trying to go to Gibraltar from Malaga in May and all the routes to La Linea are blocked off and Avanza's website has no bus routes :(

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Wow, had no idea there was a possibility of a strike. This was filmed in December 2021 and from a quick google search it looks like we got lucky with our timing. You can maybe try blablacar or rent a car for the day to get down there from Malaga. We took blablacar from Madrid to Malaga and it worked out really well for us. Good luck and I hope you make it down there. Thanks for watching.

[@richardupton3323]

the truckers strike has ended now, you will have no roblems with getting a bus from malaga to gibraltar.

[@Firesword3OOO]

thank you both for the information!!!!

[@threelittlebigbikes5600]

How much time is needed to to visit the rock?

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

You could spend all day on the rock or just a few hours depending on what you want to see and do. I would suggest at least a half to go to the top and down.

[@mjfreespirit]

Saving money is great and all, but you really should’ve taken the taxi tour. You would’ve so much more enjoyed it. And it would’ve included your admission to the nature reserve

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

We did tour car drove up goo

[@monkeydust100]

I love black pudding ,you just don't think about what it is...

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Hahaha. Nathan thinks it's good too no matter what it is.

[@dawnfitzpatrick652]

See africa from one part
