Gibraltar is an wonderful place and the people are very helpful and kind. The food is very good although prices are higher than some places in Spain, but the choice is fantastic! Drinks and cigarettes are greatly reduced as there is no VAT tax. The history of Gibraltar and all the fantastic sites to see is really worth a holiday there. You need the time to spend learning about the Rock and the people to get the full benefits. This is a warm and fascinating part of Britain.
Gibraltar is a dump at the bottom of Europe. Stay in Spain -- it's cheaper and a lot nicer.
Gibraltar is very historic and full of interest and compliments Spain. The only problem with Gibraltar is some of the dodgy finance companies in it, selling football insurance and taking people's money for bits of paper not worth anything. Beware of men in suits and Aussies that want to help you.
I can confirm that Gibraltar is a dump, having just spent the weekend there. They have overpriced hotels; poor restaurants; naff, British-style pubs -- worse still is the depressing array of tenement flats with washing hanging from most windows. It represents the very worst of the U.K. society and should be condemned, demolished, and given to the Spanish, who could make it respectable. I felt sorry for the monkeys having to put up with the dregs surrounding the rock.
Gibraltar's a nice place. It can be costly but well worth the trip. The rock is scary to drive up though.
Gibraltar in very touristic and overpriced. But I must say The Rock is worth a visit. But I do recommend that you stay and eat in Spain to save money.
I camped in Gibraltar illegally -- it was great and really cheap. I recommend the beaches. It's a world away from the scummy port towns that are very dodgy.
Gibraltar is very touristic and overpriced. But if you travel trough the south of Spain, it's a must to visit.
I have lived in Gibraltar for twenty-eight years now and think it's a great, safe, and cheap place to live. Where else can you get a pint for £2?
Gibraltar is much less touristy than Costa del Sol. Prices are like in the U.K. and shopping is duty-free.
I have to say that I would stay in Spain. Gibraltar is terrible -- full of fat, lardy people!
Gibraltar looks better from twenty kilometers away.
