Today I'm travelling to Gibraltar, a small British Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, where Europe meets Africa. Known for its strategic significance, Gibraltar controls the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea from the Atlantic Ocean. The territory is dominated by the Rock of Gibraltar, a limestone promontory rising 426 meters above sea level, which is home to the famous Barbary macaques, the only wild monkeys in Europe. Gibraltar has a unique blend of British and Mediterranean cultures, reflected in its architecture, cuisine, and daily life. Despite its small size, Gibraltar plays an important role in global shipping and military strategy.

More spa time needed I think

[@backwards7]

It gladdens the heart to hear that the noble houses of Gaviscon and Durex are soon to be united by the strategic marriage of their CEOs' offspring. We are about to enter an era of global stability, lowered birth rates and fish suppers untroubled by the scourge of re-flux.

I’ve been visiting Gibraltar for 38 years as my aunt moved to Spain just a few miles over the border. It’s a unique place, cheap booze, cheap cigs, expensive food as all needs to be shipped in. Europa point is nice to visit where you can see Atlantic and Mediterranean meet Great video mate

Hi Ed, my daughter has a flat in E1, could have given you a few tips. There’s another way to walk from the airport that involves a tunnel and brings you out right near E1, you don’t have the pleasure of walking over the runway but you won’t be delayed by traffic lights and it’s about the same distance. Also, the square where you had you fish n chips is not the place for that meal, there are a lot more places which are served just like home. Just like to add that the place you had your last day breakfast downstairs at E1 is fabulous and keeps you going all day. Great video ☝️☝️

[@ItsMeWendyvee]

Ed needs more spa-time in his life. The grumpiness just melts away ::) :)

[@lukerennie]

You should try Jersey. Very bizarre twist of France and England. War tunnels are cool too

Recently discovered your channel and I can't stop binge watching! So underrated, keep it going Ed!

[@EdChapman23]

Thank you! :)

[@JustCoxy]

I moved back to England from Gibraltar in April. Absolutely beautiful place. The cable car would have been free too if you booked a meal at the restaurant on top of the rock. Very reasonable prices too, and you can skip the queues. Shame your visit was so short because there is so much to do and see that you sadly haven’t experienced.

[@JustCoxy]

Just to add too, it’s very unusual for you to have had slow service twice in one day. I’m not sure what day you filmed this, but Friday and Saturday nights are very busy, especially at Ocean Village.

[@FloatingCroc]

He was too busy pissing and moaning about everything to do anything else

[@thelittlesthobo7100]

Great vids Ed, my parents took me to visit Gibraltar as a kid, the monkeys were mental haha

[@ArkOfTheShadow]

there's a video I saw a while ago about Gibraltar, there's a hidden British base in the mountain, it was built in case the Germans succeeded in taking it over, it was a base built completely separate from the power grid and was ran all manually, via bike power and it had everything they needed but it never got used so it just fell into ruins.

[@AliCoxMusic]

Tell me more about this power fridge?!

[@ArkOfTheShadow]

@@AliCoxMusic it autocorrected, i meant Power Grid, sorry to get your hopes up

[@ChorltonandtheWheelies]

Omg those monkeys were absolutely beautiful 😍 it's like they were posing! I know you were making out you didn't like them, but I could tell you were finding them adorable Ed! I know you have your reputation to think about! Please don't even joke about kicking any animal - children? Yes, but not animals 😉 Apart from that - loved this travelogue, thanks 😊✌

[@danielfreer29]

I paused this video halfway through and booked a holiday to Gibraltar, I go in 18 days time. I had been running out of time to book something for dates I had planned so thank you for the inspiration.

Fish & Chips brought to the UK from Portugal or Galicia. As British as Gibraltar...

I have a friend who lives in Gibraltar, Not been out there since she moved there 3 or 4 years ago, if not longer. You deserve to relax in the spa. I love the videos Ed, keep them coming.

Hi Ed, loved this one! Fish & chips looked crap to be honest! Gibraltar howver looked real interesting. So whats next? A collab with Durex & Gaviscon obviously! Lol. Great stuff!👍👏👏♥️

[@n2kos]

Another brilliant video Ed loved it! Your fish and chips looked a bit odd, the fish looked like a limb! Never been to Gibraltar and after your video I don’t really want to👍 Love you to go to Monaco, that would be fun! Cheap to go to Nice and grab a taxi👍

[@simongray8019]

Have visited Gib many times over the years and agree with you about service standards. It seems that local people are not interested in working in hospitality, and those few that do are not the most motivated of people. Apart from that though I love the place. Great for a long weekend and a very safe place

Great nostalgic video for me. I went years ago and the coach driver gave us monkey nuts to feed monkeys and the monkeys 🐒 sat on our shoulders, cute photo etc. But then a big fat monkey King Kong pushed the little baby monkey shoulder off my back, jumped on my back and took a piss down my back. 🤮🤮🤮 I swear to god!! We were only on day trip so had to purchase a new tshirt, have a wash in public toilets... Apparently its lucky? I would disagree as had to throw my shirt out and buy another one I didn't really want. Lucky for Gibraltar maybe lol. The bus tours are they best and we enjoyed the rock and views of Africa but you can't always see if its misty. Great video though xxx ❤

Not sure if I missed any of what I’m about to say, but all street names and road signs are British, as well as driving on the British side of the road. Classic red telephone boxes are around and lots of high street shops that you’d see in the UK. When I went last year I felt like I was in the UK tbf

[@mikeede49]

You can count yourself lucky you weren't run over, they drive on the right.

[@knightofcydonia07]

I did the drive from Benalmadena to Gibraltar a few years back. It was just my luck that the weather was misty, so I didn't see Africa from the rock, but I did have a decent mixed grill for only £7.20 at the first pub we came to, so all good. I especially appreciated how they reinforced it was Britain by having a vending machine with Walkers crisps a few paces after passport control at the border.
