There are a total of eight different bus routes in Gibraltar. There are two companies who provide stage-carriage bus services in Gibraltar: Gibraltar Bus Company and Calypso Transport.

The [[Government of Gibraltar]] owned Gibraltar Bus Company operates routes 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8 and 9 with a fleet of 21 buses, 18 of which are [[Dennis Dart]] low-floor midibus with [[Caetano Nimbus]] bodies and featuring 28 seats and three [[Mercedes-Benz Sprinter]] minibuses with Unvi bodies and catering for 15 seated passengers.<ref>[http://www.gibraltarbuscompany.gi/site/images/GibBusNetworkMap.pdf Network Map] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201102032230/http://www.gibraltarbuscompany.gi/site/images/GibBusNetworkMap.pdf |date=2 November 2020 }} Gibraltar Bus Company</ref> The Darts entered service the day the company was officially formed, Saturday 10 April 2004, when it took over the operation of private company Rock City Services, who had been unwilling to invest in its fleet. The trio of Sprinters entered service during November 2010 and operate Service 1 to the Moorish Castle Estate in the Upper Town area of the city.

Calypso Transport operates route 5 between the Frontier (the land border with Spain), the airport and the city centre and tickets between this route and those operated by the Gibraltar Bus Company are not inter-changeable. An adult single fare on either operators' services currently costs £1.00 and an all-day Hoppa ticket costs £1.50. A year-long trial period where free travel was permitted aboard the buses of the Gibraltar Bus Company ended in May 2012 and only qualifying residents, commuters and [[Military of Gibraltar|military personnel]] now qualify for free travel in the territory.
