Gibraltar’s ‘official quarter’, that small stretch of road that separates the Chief Minister’s Office at Convent Place from the Governor’s residence at The Convent, has become a focal point of tourist interest during the summer months. Crowds of day-trippers and sightseers often jam-pack the area, especially when a cruise liner is in port, taking photographs of the buildings, their curiosity aroused and wanting to know more about the important business that goes on inside.

The Gibraltar Tourist Board has now posted two of its Visitor Information Patrol students to the area, to provide all the information and answer questions more generally about Gibraltar’s tourist amenities and visitor attractions. The VIPs are kept extremely busy, replying to inquiries, providing directions and handy advice about the Rock’s various exciting and appealing locations.
