“From Sacred Peaks to Sips of Perfection – Montserrat & Wine Bliss!” - This tour with CastleWine Tours was the perfect blend of history, scenery, and great food and wine! Our guides, Ivan and Elena, were a fantastic duo — funny, knowledgeable, and full of historical insights that brought each stop to life. We met at the easy-to-find Castlexperience office in Barcelona Nord Bus Station, checked in, and boarded a comfortable, air-conditioned bus. The drive to Montserrat was beautiful, and hopping on the cogwheel train up to the monastery gave us sweeping views of the Catalan countryside. The guided tour of the monastery and Basilica was fascinating, and we had free time to sample local treats made by Montserrat’s monks and farmers. From there, we headed to Oller del Mas winery, set in a 10th-century castle — absolutely stunning! We enjoyed a multi-course lunch made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients, and every bite was incredible. Afterward, we moved into the wine cellar for a tasting led by Ivan, who made it both fun and informative. His knowledge, humor, and passion for wine made it one of the highlights of the entire day. The day wrapped up back in Barcelona, and it truly felt like we’d experienced the best of both Catalonia’s natural beauty and culinary traditions. If you want a seamless, well-organized tour with excellent guides, unforgettable wine, and fresh local food, this is a must-do. Highly recommend booking in advance!
