Our cruise was rerouted to Gibraltar from Vigo due to a storm - this visit ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. In the cruise port terminal, we went to the Taxi kiosk (on the right near the front as you enter the terminal) - we were shown a map of the tour and the specific stops it would make, and it seemed to cover many of the things we hoped to see. It turned out to be a fabulous experience. The other option would have been the gondola experience, but that was closed due to the weather (and our taxi experience was probably a better option)! Our driver, Damian, has lived his life in the area and his family has a legacy in the taxi/tourism industry. He was professional, knowledgeable and personable. We saw the caves, the monkeys and learned a bit of history about the area - the tour lasted about 2 hours. Damian also recommended a local pub (Trafalgar Sports Bar), where we had lunch. Wonderful conversation there with locals and a great lunch, too!

We booked a taxi tour of the rock from the kiosk at the airport. This did not live up to expectations as our driver Ronald Reece was not interested in his job. He stopped the minibus along the way we got out he didn’t explain anything about what we went to see, at the skywalk he just dropped us off and didn’t get out to explain anything about the place same at apes den he just drove past it and left us behind not like all the other taxi drivers who stopped there to explain about the monkeys . He just drove off and said meet him up the hill. Would advise anyone booking not to have him as your tour guide, wait for the next taxi.

I have nothing good to say about the taxis in Gibraltar. We were not able to find a taxi when we first arrived - even at the airport, We called the number and they would not book one, simply saying that they would put a message out and hopefully one will come. The taxi drivers will not take you between places, even if they are not doing anything at that time. Then we found out from one driver that any tourist attraction has to be booked with a 2 hour tour. So the taxi drivers will take you around if you book an expensive tour, but will not drive you otherwise. I have no words for this corrupt system. I hope one day Uber or another ride share system will be introduced to end the monopoly the taxis have in this territory.
