Reviews
Visiting the Holy Mountain of Montserrat in Barcelona is truly spectacular, with towering rocks and a very solemn monastery. Our guide, Yerai, provided a very detailed explanation throughout the entire journey and took great care of everyone. The other guides in the entire travel agency team were also very interesting, making for a fulfilling day. The afternoon winery tour made everyone feel like they were having a wonderful afternoon tea, offering three wines for tasting along with tapas, which was very pleasant.
overall awesome experience would highly recommend views were amazing delpm was amazing and very knowledgeable
highly recommend for convenience and hassle free tour…
Joined the Montserrat, Tapas & Wine tour on 25 May 2026 with Rubi. The tour guide Rubi was very helpful and kind, he took care everyone in his group sincerely. He well introduced the spots. The only downside of this tour was that the end time delayed. We arrived back to city at 1630 which was 1 hour later than scheduled.
This booking included all that I wanted to do at the Montserrat. My guide Iván was very experienced and concise in his explanations. He would give suggestions you could do during the 1.5hour free time. The winery visit experience was great as well. I walked away with 2 bottles of wine.
An amazing trip accompanied by extremely interesting and friendly guides! And, of course, the wine tasting will leave no one indifferent. 😂
When you go to Barcelona, this attraction is worth visiting and a must-see. It was lively and had a good atmosphere on Saturday.
A convenient way of exploring Montserrat. Time to explore the complex was limited by the number of tourists that were present during our visit. The wine tasting was pretty basic. They let us try 1 white and 2 reds. Then you have an option to try more at the bar for a fee.
Definitely recommend 10/10. we only had 2.5 days to check things out before cruise, and this was the best idea for a short trip. we also did. a combo package, sagrada, hop on hop off, and guell park, best idea ever to see things in a short amount of time!
The tour guide Guillian is amazing with a sense of humour. Thanks for his explanation, , have more understanding on Spain's history and this historical monsetery place. Overall, highly recommended but if you're looking for a nice tapas for highlight, think twice.
