Hidden Gem. We booked through Princess and went out of town to the beach area. Absolutely gorgeous. Anna, our guide, was great!

Thumbs Up 2

Gibraltar (U.K.)

5 out of 5

Took a Princess tour to St. Michael's Caves. After the tour, our guide, Derek, dropped us pedestrian shopping street. City needs better signage to point you back to the ship.

Took another Princess tour to the other side of the island, then to La Laguna to a open market, where I had one of the best pastries I've ever had.
