Private and small-group tours of Gibraltar’s historic synagogues, Jewish quarter and the Upper Rock — guided by local historian Joshua Marrache.

Tours are led by a historian and researcher of Gibraltar’s Jewish history — author of the first history of the Nefusot Yehudah Synagogue.
Your guide is well connected on the Rock — kosher lunch, Shabbat arrangements, taxis and tickets all handled for you.
Visitors from New York to Tel Aviv, Mexico to Istanbul rate their day with Joshua as a highlight of their trip.
Most of the Rock is a nature reserve: 426 metres of limestone above the Strait, home to the Barbary macaques, St Michael’s Cave and the Great Siege Tunnels. Add an Upper Rock taxi and reserve tickets to any walking tour.

Joshua made our visit to Gibraltar very smooth, as he met us on Friday, showed us around and helped us iron some details out even though we only made our tour on Shabbos. Additionally, the tour on Shabbos was very thorough and enjoyable since Joshua was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions patiently. We had a great tour!
Thank you so much for a wonderful day, Joshua. We really enjoyed seeing and learning about Gibraltar’s history, and visiting the beautiful synagogues. And of course, the Rock, the Cave, the monkeys and the perched chickens were lots of fun! Thank you again for a day packed with history, beauty, great exercise and fun! Gibraltar is an amazing place!
I hired Josh to take my family around Gibraltar on a half day walking tour to see the beautiful synagogues and places of Jewish interest. We also went up the rock by taxi to see the apes and the gorgeous sites. Must say we had one of the best days ever and can highly recommend Josh to any traveler there. His knowledge of the local history is amazing!
It was an amazing experience spending the day with you in Gibraltar. Your historical knowledge of the city and its history, as well as the visit to the 4 local synagogues with the history of each, was worth every minute. You topped it off with a climb up the rock, the Cemetery, and the amazing St. Michael’s Cave. Highly recommended.
