Gibraltar Airport
The Gibraltar Airport serves the entire British territory of Gibraltar, but La Linea is where most cars are collected from.When you arrive at the Gibraltar Airport, taxis are easily available. For three pounds, you can get to the heart of the city.
There are minibuses available too, with many of them offering a tour of the city for around 25 Euros per head.
If you want to walk, instead of taking a ride from the Airport, to get to the city centre, you can very well do so. Expect to reach your destination in 10 minutes.
La Linea
La Linea, on the other hand, is a port town in Spain found over the border of Gibraltar. Many travellers to Gibraltar choose to spend their vacation away at La Linea, rather than right at the heart of the city. The sole reason is that it is quieter, and much cheaper, in the old and slow port town. Staying right in the heart of Gibraltar, means you have to pay a surcharge on hotel and apartments. At La Linea, things are much more affordable, from accommodation, to food, and everything else in between.
You can do some exploring during the break of dawn if you want or right at midnight to free yourself of the traffic jam. In your escapades, be sure not to miss the Parroquia de la Immaculada Church, a church built in the 19th century following a colonial style. There are many restaurants worth checking out around town as well, with the Stadium Bar and Tapas Bar Patagonia topping the list.

However, the traffic over at Gibraltar is most time consuming. If you flew here for travel and vacation, you can’t do much exploring if you don’t have a car with you. Relying on taxis and buses limits your options as to where you want to go. Furthermore, you are mostly likely to get stuck in traffic because of the driver’s miscalculation.
Booking car rental in Gibraltar
Car hire in Gibraltar with national car rental companies. We offer a modern fuel economy fleet of rental cars. Choose from VW, Nissan, Mazda, BMW, Toyota or Honda. Or you can go for a Peugeot, Mercedes or Vauxhall.Book early. We advise to book a few months in advance. Longer if after an MPV, Convertible, SUV or estate car, i.e a high demand car category. Car hire also available at La Linea in Spain, which is the only way to discover `The Rock', and to spend a few days in Spain.
Most customer choose a small SUV such as Land Rover Freelander, or the Suzuki Vitara. Then there is the high demand Puegeot 308 Cabriolet, which sells out quickly. So if after a car that allows the warm breeze, while seeing the sites, then please book early. The Peugeot Partner is also in high demand for its versatility.
