Gibraltar has vaccinated (注射疫苗) its entire adult population, making it a perfect “green list” destination for the coming sunny break. Here are our tips on what you can get there.
Cable Car
The views from the Cable Car’s Top Station, located 412 m above sea level, are truly breathtaking and it will take you only 6 minutes to get to the top. You will find our tailless monkeys at the Cable Car Top Station. However, please be aware that although they look cute and friendly, they are wild animals and must be treated with caution and respect.
The Cable Car is open 7 days a week from 09: 30 to 19: 15. No reservation needed.
ADMISSION PRICES: ￡16 for each adult, ￡7 for each child, and ￡14. 5 for senior citizens
E-bike
E-bike system was established in July 2019 to provide e-bike guided tours and bike rentals in Gibraltar.
The directors of our tours bring 20 years of experience organizing and operating e-bike and motorcycle tours around the world. Our tour guides are officially licensed by the Gibraltar Tourist Board, are native English speakers and carry first-aid. German and Spanish-speaking tour guides are also available on request.

Lower St Michael’s Cave
When the upper section of St Michael’s Cave has been known for over 2, 000 years and used for various purposes such as a hospital during World War Ⅱ, it was only in 1942 that Lower St Michael’s Cave was discovered.
The tour into Lower St Michael’s Cave normally lasts around three hours. People are advised to wear shoes and clothing suitable for climbing. Due to the unusual nature of this tour, children under the age of ten years are not allowed. Three days in advance is also necessary for bookings.
ADMISSION PRICE: ￡25 for per person
