Great tour - I’m not usually a huge fan of guided tours but this one was really great. Air conditioned bus from Barcelona to Monserrat. Our guide, Susana, was excellent - very knowledgeable and a great sense of humor. We also had some time to explore on our own before heading to Oller del Mas winery for lunch and a wine tasting. The wine and food were delicious. Overall, we felt like the tour was an incredible value for everything that was included in the cost.

Amazing day trip to Montserrat and the Winery - Our day trip to Montserrat and the Wine experience was so incredible! What made the trip so amazing was our tour guide Anays. She provided insightful information and delivered her commentary in a fun and humorous way. A well paced trip, clear instructions, lots of time to freely wander around and the monastery was definitely worth the trip. At the vineyard Anays had so many interesting comments to share with us and was very knowledgable about wines, history of wines in Spain and so on. The lunch was delicious and the wine tasting taught us so much about the different wines. You will be glad you did this tour, it was honestly one of the best tours we have ever did! Thank you so much Anays and your team for making our trip to Spain so memorable!

Amazing and magical tour! - This was an absolutely perfect day. From Montserrat visit to the organic winery tour and lunch. Thaís was a fabulous tour guide. She gave tons of history and information all along the way. She was funny and engaging. Very talented at what she does!! We did the entire day tour and while it was long it was well worth the time. I think the half-day would have felt rushed. Montserrat is breathtaking and so unique. It’s magical how the mountain rises from the rolling hills and if you manage to go to Sangrada Familia while in Barcelona you will definitely see that this was Guidí’s inspiration. This was well worth the price and we would do it again with no hesitation!

Montserrat and winery with lunch - Enjoyed a great tour today of Montserrat, the weather was incredible and my guides Toni and Mariana were both fun and informative. The lunch at the winery was very tasty, and despite not being a big wine drinker the wine was tasty, and the winery itself was gorgeous.

Amazing experience - MJ was a fantastic tour guide. From the beginning where she guided us through a history tour of Barcelona on the bus ride there, walking us around Monserrat and showing us what to do and where to go, to then bringing us to a phenomenal lunch at the winery, and then wine tasting was just simply a perfect way to end the day, and our vacation! Excellent job done by all and really well organized.
