Monica was our guide. She is very cheery and has a good sense of humor. She is very knowledgeable about Monsterrat, and tries to engage critical thinking among the group. She had good suggestions for free time . She complimented everybody for being on time at our meeting point.
Monica wanted people to experience the wine tasting in all aspects...appearance, smell and taste. It was an interesting conversation and many people participated. I was surprised that she had to serve everyone too. The "castle" is beautiful but I felt that a representative could have at least greeted our group.
Overall it was a nice day.

What made the experience so wonderful was our guide Ivan. He was so personable and friendly. He gave us a lot of information about what we were going to see as well as the history of Barcelona itself. The wine tasting and tapas were exceptional as was Ivan’s description of the wines we tasted. The day ran smoothly and all the meet up instructions were clear.

Great get quick gateway from Barcelona. Montserrat is breath taking. Take the time to do this tour. Thank you Anthony for your expertise and jokes. Only thing I would like to have was having more time in Monserrat itself. Let’s us explore the different areas not just the basilica.

This trip is VERY reasonably priced! The tour of Monserrat + free time is GORGEOUS - if you can, I recommend booking the longer tour to get more free time. There are lots of hikes and little stands to check out. The winery is stunning with delicious wine. Our guide Thaís was the BEST! She was friendly, funny, and so so helpful. She is so passionate about her job and wine :)

This was a pleasant surprise to us. We didn't expect how beautiful Montserrat was. It's huge and we could've spent the full day there. The vineyard afterwards was stunning and the tapas and wine tasting was incredible. The best part about this was our tour guide Lesly. She made everyone feel included and was very fun, informative and hilarious. There was never a dull moment with her. She created a fun way to enjoy the bus rides, and she made the tour even more special.

The tour guides were all excellent and the directions and instructions provided by the team ahead of time were well appreciated. Everything was on time and in total it was about 7.5h. MJ was very informative and engaged, providing us with information and guiding us through the tour. Be prepared for a bit of uphill walking if you choose it! The path to the lookout point at the cross,is not paved so may not be suitable for all. You will definitely want to buy all the cheese and chocolates at the farmers market!
Montserrat itself is exceptionally breathtaking and of course the winery was one of a kind. The tapas and three wines we tasted were well paired and we enjoyed the experience thoroughly. For kids they served grape juice so my daughter felt included as well. Highly recommend this tour you will not regret it!

Anthony and team did an amazing job of guiding our group and giving interesting background on Montserrat that we would not have gotten if we went just by ourselves.
The wine tour and tasting was a lot more than we were expecting and such a great way to end the tour as a whole.
