One of the most beautiful places we have visited. Jennifer our tour guide was engaging, knowledgeable and made this tour one of the best best we’ve experienced.
Anays was the BESST!!! Great tour!
Dustin_B, 27-09-2022
This tour was a great full day experience. Our guide, Anays, made it great and memorable! She was interactive, passionate, funny, goofy, and full of energy. The wine portion of the tour was especially great fun, all thanks to Anays. She made the experience feel like we were all part of the family vineyard. A+ experience, all thanks to Anays.

Montserrat is incredible
scottrU7754AY, 25-09-2022
Montserrat was spectacular. Tour guides were knowledgable, engaging and interested in their customers. Wine tasting with Tapas was fun although would have preferred to see a little more of winemaking process. Do this trip for Montserrat not so much the winery.
Hola to Gracious...

Amazing day in Montserrat with Lorena!
MLRic, 29-09-2022
Montserrat is a beautiful and unique location; our guide Lorena was just amazing! She was funny, engaging, took great care of the fairly large group and really knew her stuff. She was an expert on the area and included many fun and different facts about our various stops.
The luncheon provided at the winery was incredible and the staff was attentive and pleasant. Finally, the wine tasting and the wine room were excellent. Overall, we had plenty of quality time at each stop, the tour flowed really well and it was definitely a great value for the price.
Thanks Lorena for making this such a great and memorable day!
Fantastic

The tour was delightful from the beginning to end. Gus was a great guide and was so informative on the history of Barcelona and Monserrat. He also did an excellent job on explaining all the different wines. We had a fantastic day.
It’s a wonderful tour
cecilia_y, 17-12-2022
We are delighted to have Lorena as our tour guide. She is taking good care of all of us in the group, especially the kids. She is able to give detailed and clear explanation of Montserrat. My 9 yo boy and I enjoyed the place and all the arrangements of the tour .
Fantastic tour! Great guides!
Jake_C, 16-12-2022
Our tour guides were fantastic, specifically Lorena! Great food and wine, and a great time spent at the monastery as well. Got to see the boys choir perform as well!
Fun and informative day trip! Great guides.

We went on the Montserrat day trip with our family of five, including an infant. We had a wonderful time!

Great delivery and information from all the guides. The tour was a nice balance between new and old.

Nerea was our small group tour and she was fantastic, very knowledgeable and fun. She kept the energy high and was able to answer all our questions. We really enjoyed our time with her and seeing all the sights on our tour.
Great day!

Everything was wonderful. Our tour guide was amazing, and explained so much and shared so much of his knowledge of the area.
A highlight of my week in Barcelona
TapasandSangria, 06-01-2023
Well paced, easy to follow, was a highlight of my week in Barcelona. The departure and return times from/to Barcelona meant the day trip was done with ease. Tour Guide Javier Rodriguez made the day as his commentary enriched the experience. He is well read in history and his appreciation of Spain and wine shone thru. History, architecture, politics he made it all sound interesting and easy to follow. His upbeat enthusiasm made the day fun. I walked away from the tour with a greater appreciation of how modern day Spain came about. The vineyard, wine tasting and tapas was a nice way to end the day. I learnt a lot about wine from someone who has worked in the wine industry. I have previously been on wine tours however Javier's wine industry knowledge made his tour superior. I highly recommend the Montserrat and winery tour.
Tour Guide was the Best!
William W, 06-01-2023
The experience was greatly enhanced by our guide Jon. Jon was attentive to all the members of the tour, gave us a great history recap, informed us about Monserrat and bottom line was an excellent guide.
Awesome Sauce!
Jonathon_L, 03-01-2023

Great Tour and day!
Elizabeth_P, 11-01-2023
This was super fun and I loved it. Couple bad things were I felt limited in time at Montserrat. Didn't get to look around as much as I would have liked. The winery was beautiful and I was super excited until I saw the tasting room. So generic and sterile and boring. I thought they could have done a better job or hold the tasting in a different area of winery. Wine was great and we loved our guide but disappointed in actual room. Overall I would definitely do this again!
Incredible day with a top top guide.
Rian T, 11-01-2023
The trip was amazing! Our guide Mariana També was incredible. Her knowledge and charisma really complemented the day. Monasterio was very beautiful. And the winery we visited was a perfect end to the day. But honestly our guide Mariana made the day!
