Great tour guide, Fran. Good mix of giving us the history and letting us explore on our own. Really enjoyed the wine tasting at Oller del Mas winery.

I cant say enough about this excellent tour. Lesly is an absolute expert at her craft - from start to finish she made sure everyone in the group was comfortable and engaged and went out of her way to make sure people with dietary needs and parents traveling with children were comfortable and stress-free. She also provided a thorough and yet accessible overview of the history and culture of Catalonia that I otherwise never could have appreciated, and gave great tips on how to make the most of our time both on the tour and in Barcelona more broadly. The views from monserrat were a once in a lifetime experience - and while Lesly may claim to “not be an expert sommelier” her tips on appreciating the incredible wines are ones we will be able to take with us to enjoy all wines more fully in the future! I am so glad we booked this tour and would recommend to anyone.

Merak was our tour guide and he was amazing. Very knowledge and funny. Montserrat - both the monastery and the mountain - is simply a beautiful place and picturesque. The architecture inside the basilica is absolutely gorgeous. The chapel with the resurrection sculpture of Jesus blew me away. During the free time, you’re able to go on adventures of your own - but beware that the weather may be much colder than in Barcelona. The second half of the trip was to a vineyard called Oller del Mas, where we had a wine and food pairing in a beautiful old building. The wine was fantastic, even the whites which aren’t usually my favorites. All in all, it was a beautiful day. 10/10 would recommend.

An amazing tour - especially with our guide Vince! Was super easy to get to/from the starting point. Busses were comfy for the ~50min ride. Vince’s history lesson on our ride out of the city was an added bonus - especially since we had just arrived to Barcelona it really helped set the stage for our trip. Vince made the entire experience fun, educational, and just overall enjoyable. Montserrat was gorgeous with a great mix of guided tour & enough time to explore alone. The vineyard tasting was also great. So glad we found this tour and booked!!

We had the best experience thanks to our amazing tour guide, MJ!! The views at Montserrat were breathtaking and the wine tour was great! Loved learning more of the history and legends of Montserrat and Barcelona! Thank you, MJ, for sharing your love for Catalonia with us. At the end of the trip we got an email with suggestions for restaurants and more things to do, which was lovely!

Mariana and Castleexperience was great! Checking in was hard to find but they called me while I was on the platform to inform me of what bus terminal to meet at. The wine tour was awesome! It was windy at Monserrat so dress warmly.

We had a great time at Montserrat and winery experience. Our tour guide Ivan was very knowledgeable and friendly. The half day tour was the perfect time to enjoy both things and come back to the city to continue to explore more.
