Montserrat Monastery with Cava Wine Tasting Small Group Tour from Barcelona

Cam was a fun and informative tour guide. We went with 2 families. The tour included the Montserrat tour as well as a Cava Tasting tour. We went to a Cava vineyard call Olive Batllori. Honestly the only negative is the food offering in the Montserrat Cafe. I think the nicer dining option was closed for remodeling so maybe the are better options there. However this is not a reflection on the tour as they have no control of that. Cam constantly gave us history and was very engaging. THe Cava portion was super interesting for the older kids as we went thru the Cellar and learned many facts about the process of making Cava. Of course, tasting the Cava was a fave. We went on a smaller bus that had capacity for about 15 people.

Pablo was fabulous! He was very engaged & knew Monserrat very well! I would highly recommend Pablo to anyone!!!

Our tour guide, Cam, was awesome! He had so much knowledge about Montserrat and the history of the area which helped make the bus ride pass quickly. When we got to Montserrat, he gave a detailed 45 minute ish tour of the site before letting us explore on our own for a few hours. The vineyard was awesome and after touring the facility and learning in detail the entire process of making wine, we sampled 4 bottles. I highly recommend this tour! Thanks for a great day!

Our tour guide is very knowledgeable and gave us a great understanding of the culture and background of the country. She also gave us good tips so that we can manage to visit Montserrat based on our preference within a limited time. The wine tasting tour is also great. Everyone have fun.

Alex was amazing. Knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommended. The kids rated it at the highlight of the trip. Hagit ( Israel & USA)

I had such a great time. It was an intimate tour and I learned so much. Marta was really friendly and knowledgeable! We had enough time to explore the mountain and see the black Madonna. The winery was REALLY great too. But the best part was driving and listening to Marta! She even told us a bit about Catalunya politics! I recommend this tour

PLEASE NOTE: the town of Montserrat is a religious site, It is mostly chapels and monk monasteries. That is the only thing to do there. The views were spectacular, worth the trip- however the town itself was a bit underwhelming, especially if you are not religious. We also visited a winery named Pares Balta and had a fantastic time there. Our winery guide was so informative and knowledgeable.

Excellent guide told us exactly how to spend our time did a nice hike and were able to secure from row seats for the choir based on her advise

This was a great experience. We had an extremely good guide, who gave some very interesting and all the necessary information without overloading us.Go on this trip!

Absolutely wonderful tour of the monastery and the Pares Balta winery, plus an extra stop at a picturesque church. Marta was our excellent guide who spoke very good English. There were five people on the trip as three cancelled at the last minute. Marta provided very interesting information about the history of Spain and Montserrat. Upon arriving at Montserrat, she gave us a walking tour around the monastery explaining what all there was to see, then let us venture on our own to give everyone an opportunity to explore. We were able to see the choir play, take amazing photos, explore the museum, eat delicious baquette sandwiches at the cafe and purchase cheese to take home to the States. We then stopped at an old church built in the 9th century to take pictures. The winery was the last stop and we met up with a couple of other small groups to get a tour and wine tasting. Learned some fascinating information about biodynamic techniques used in wine making. I can't thank Marta enough. She is very competent and so friendly, willing to share information about Spain, even while driving through Barcelona and outside the city. This exceeded my expectations and we are glad to have chosen this tour.
