Gibraltar Transport

Getting there & away

Land

Bus

There are no regular buses to Gibraltar, but La Línea de la Concepción bus station is only a five-minute walk from the border.

Car & motorcycle

Vehicle queues at the 24-hour border and congested traffic in Gibraltar often make it easier to park in La Línea and walk across the border. To take a car into Gibraltar (free) you need an insurance certificate, registration document, nationality plate and driving licence.
