A great day in Montserrat! - What a great day. Pau was such a nice guy. Interesting and fun to be with. He was so accommodating and made sure we got to see everthing in Montserrat. He even got us the extra tickets for the boys choice. We had amazing weather and it was a perfect day.

A private tour experience for all - Our guide, Mr. Pau is very friendly, professional and attentive! He is very knowledgeable and attention to details. He personalised this tour for my husband and I. We had a lot of great fun and laughters together. We’ll like to recommend this relaxing day trip to anyone who is looking for a private and intimate sightseeing experience.

Great day at Montserrat. - Montserrat is a must see. The Black Madonna is ethereal and the church she rests in is one of the most beautiful works of art. Our tour made it easy to visit with a private car and informed guide. Andy’s enthusiasm for the culture his adopted country was infectious - request him if you can, a bonus for the journey.

Absolutely the best way to see Montserrat! - A private tour was the best way to see Montserrat. We were picked up right at our hotel, and our guide Pau was possibly the most interesting person we have ever met! He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the monastery, knew the best order to view all of the different attractions and even where to buy the best cheeses from the local market vendors outside of the monastery. A lot of walking and it does get quite hot as the day goes on, so I would recommend the 9 am time slot. We took a hike up to the black cross, came down and rested and had lunch, then toured the monastery and saw the Black Madonna. I’d also recommend the cable car to the top vs the cog wheel train. We loved every minute of our tour and had an amazing guide, Pau! Wish we’d taken a picture together! Well done, Pau!

A must tour with Pau. - Monserrat was geologically spiritual and good for the spiritual soul. This was due to our tour guide Pau who was such a joy, he was wonderfully knowledgeable and genuinely one of the kindest people my husband and I have ever met.

We recommend walking the path to St. Michael's Cross. It's only uphill in one direction! - Pau was a great guide. His familiarity with the area and the people provided us with an insider's view of the site. We recommend walking the path to St. Michael's Cross. It's only uphill in one direction!

Would do again - Wonderful trip to Monserrat. I would definitely do it again. Pau, our guide, was fantastic. He is a local who absolutely knows his way around and is friendly with all of the right people on the trip. Very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. He knew all there was to know and wasn’t the least bit bored with a tour I’m sure he has given countless times
