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 to the town centre, you can do so in about 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.
Exploring the Rock
You can do some exploring at 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.
