Montserrat is a beautiful site so don't miss this trip while visiting Barcelona. Thank you for the helpful, informative, multi-lingual tour guide and comfortable ride.

The trip is worth doing, especially for Montserrat and Sitges. I could care less about the Torres Winery tour. Four hours was not enough to tour Montserrat, because there were too many sights to see and within the 4 hours you have to find time to grab something for lunch as well. The schedule was just too hectic to take it all in. Sitges was nice, except we got there around 3 PM and all the shops were closed for siesta. Other than that, the places are worth seeing. Skip the winery and just do the Montserrat and Sitges tour.

Trip was OK, but I expected to see a Viator sign at meeting point and not to travel with a different company.

Agree with others. Get rid of the complete wine tour and spend more tour but time in Sitges. Obviously Torres subsidizes the tour so visit the Torres store but the tour of the vineyard is worthless especially if we have done tours in Napa or Sonova. We then could have spent quality time in Sitges. Our tour guide was very good.

The only part of the tour that's worth your time is Montserrat.

It was okay. There were two buses in our tour. When we reached each location, we were divided into two groups, English-speaking and Spanish-speaking, of which there were only six. So, our group had about sixty people to one guide. We didn't get much out of it. Sitges was beautiful, so we ditched the guided tour and went around by ourselves, it was much more enjoyable that way.

I would have liked more time at the winery and less at Monserrat!

This tour was boring and long. There is no hotel pick-up like other full-day tours that I have been on. We got left at Montserrat for 4 hours. Way too long! In the cold and boring. The guide gave virtually no information. The Torres winery was almost equally boring. I'm sorry, but it just seemed sterile. I'd envision something interesting, possibly romantic, but not this winery. Sitges was okay. Better than Barcelona I guess. But we only had one hour, with a guide who supposedly was showing us the "nice houses". The shops, cafes, winding old area was kind of neat. Me and another couple took off on our own to explore this area. After all we only had an hour, and left the guide with the rest of the group, meeting the bus at the appointed time. I would have preferred a quick tour of the winery, a quick, i.e. 15 minute tour of Montserrat, and more time in Sitges. Or no tour at all. I'm sorry but this was about the worst tour I have ever been on. Boring. The guide should have told us about Spain, it's history, Barcelona, or something. Instead it was just a very long day.

Torres Winery isn't worth the valuable time. I wouldn't go there at all. Monserrat is great, but we had to spend two hours in line for the funicular, and therefore missed the chorus singing. Then we didn't have time to go up to the cave, which were the parts we booked this trip for. We arrived to Sitges at night, and could barely see, not to mention enjoy this small town. Complete waste of time!
