Full description

Experience Montserrat on a full-day wine tour with lunch from Barcelona. Understand why Montserrat is so closely linked to the Catalan identity and also learn about the region's wines with tastings. On the way to Montserrat, your guide will introduce you to this "magic mountain" where Mother Nature meets religion, history, and the identity of the Catalans. Enjoy the stunning landscape of the natural park.

Take a guided tour which includes a short walk to the monastery where you can see spectacular views and get a true feel of the spirituality Montserrat has to offer. After Montserrat, head to a local, family-run winery, just a few minutes away from Montserrat, and one of the most important and beautiful wineries in the region.  In a local restaurant, be served from an exquisite selected tasting menu featuring favorites of the region paired with wines produced organically from the vineyard. In the afternoon, your expert guide will take you to visit the cellar and through the vines for a walk. Learn how the wine is made and discover all its secrets. Then visit the winery, where its chateaux wines become older and wiser.

I'm so glad that I booked this trip for my family of 3. We had a great time and Montserrat is a place not to be missed. Our tour guide was Nerea and she's wonderful! We love her! She had great stories of the monastery and gave us great advice on where to go and what to do. always ready to answer all questions and she has excellent knowledge! The wine tour is not to be missed if you're a wine lover. Nerea knows her wine!!! The tasting session was well conducted. Well done Nerea and we hope to visit again! And we'll surely ask for you!

Jon was a fantastic guide; informative, conversational, and pleasant to spend the day with. The early time is worth it, just enough time to enjoy the small town and basilica, do a nice ~40 min hike (if you want), stunning views from a gorgeous mountain. Cheese stalls are phenomenal. Winery was beautiful, rich with history (thanks Jon) and lunch and wine were tasty. Easily ordered a shipment home to the states of wines to share with loved ones. Would go again ✨

Everything was very good! Gus did a great job of taking us along scenic mountain views, hauntingly beautiful monasteries and temples, and the quiet, contemplative museum was filked with beautiful art. This is also great for those who like to sample and taste a variety of cheeses and liquors.
