Traveler Tips

It is easy to highly recommend this trip for friends and family.

The funicular to Santa Cava is under repair, so if you want to visit there the hike is strenuous and will take over an hour to hike as trail is steep.

Very fun trip

jean_s, May 2022

Really enjoyed the clean bus and safe driver, the great tour guide (thanks Marek!), beautiful Montserrat and just the right amount of time for us to wander on our own, yummy lunch (and we appreciated the handling of our dietary issues), good wine and wine tasting. I'd recommend this tour!

Dreaming of Montserrat

Anonymous, May 2022

Montserrat is beautiful and worth visiting. The trip was well organized and Jon and the other tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. My family and I also enjoyed the visit to the vineyard, the wine tasting and food. Highly recommend!

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear traveler, Thank you very much for your feedback and for your kind words about Jon. Glad you enjoyed the tour. Best regards, Castlexperience team

Fun and Historical

Mark_S, May 2022

Daniel was an excellent guide who graciously lead us and gave us the history of Monserrat, the Oller de Mas winery and the evolution of Spanish wines. Up close viewing of the Virgin Madonna was a hilight. Be sure to advise folks taking this tour time allows for close viewung but you must prerequest free tickets separately.

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear Mark, Thank you for your stunning review as for your recent visit to our tour. We hope you found our tour as beautiful and fantastic as the guides do. We always try to do our best to make it as enjoyable as possible for everyone. Warm regards, Castlexperience team

A MUST SEE WHEN STAYING IN BARCELONA

Manna_K, May 2022

This was an amazing experience. Definitely a must when staying in Barcelona. Montserrat was simply beautiful. There are so many places to explore, trails to go on, shops to see, views to behold. There is an adequate amount of free time to explore as you'd like and take your time. The winery was fantastic as well. The food was great and wine was amazing.. It was a beautiful place with a horse barn and grape fields and an amazing view of the mountains and a beautiful red flower field beyond. The quick drive by old town at the end of the tour with the Jesuit history was amazing too. The buildings and architecture there is great as well! Would recommend and even come again! If you're a solo traveler, don't worry. The tour guides are great and you'll meet amazing people or you can just do your own thing, doesn't matter...this place is just a must see and go to place if you have the time and love wine and history!

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear Manna, Thank you very much for your recommendations for future travelers. Our tour is adapted for all types of travelers. It is a unique and unforgettable experience that thanks to our team and their effort, is possible. Best regards, Castlexperience Team

Montserrat Tour with Lunch and Gourmet Wine Tasting

John_C, May 2022

Merak, was our guide, was stellar! Humorous, insightful, easy to understand, he paced our tour just right. A view, a lesson, a laugh, a stroll, repeat. He provided great tips to improve our experience. Lunch was excellent. Two very nice wines with lunch. The wine tasting, an hour for three wines went by in a flash. Merak truly excelled here-no snooty jargon but loads of information.

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear John, Thank you very much for your feedback, we will be happy to transmit your beautiful message to Merak. Your wonderful words encourage us to continue working hard to fulfill visitors’ experiences and make them live a memorable day. Best wishes, Castlexperience Team

Fantastic tour!! Our guide Nerea was awesome- super knowledgeable and hilarious!! She learned all of our names and took care to make sure everyone had a great time. Montserrat and the winery were both fabulous!

Response from Host, May 2022

Best ever guide!

Lornaida_A, May 2022

We had an amazing experience. Our guide, Mariana, was extremely accommodating, kind, considerate, and knowledgeable. Despite my mother not being able to walk much due to recent knee surgery, Mariana went out of her way to accommodate her and make sure she was enjoying the trip as much as everyone else. She made sure she didn't feel like she was causing problems for moving slowly...thank you. We had such a wonderful time and learns so much from this engaging young woman. If you go, request her if you can. You will not be disappointed.

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear Lornaid, Thank you so much for recommending us! Mariana will be glad to know how much you enjoyed their guiding skills! We want all of you to discover the beauty of our region, history and wine, and the guides are very committed to it! So, the guides go out of their way to ensure you enjoy the day! In the end, Castlexperience’s tours are meant to be experiences and not just visits :) Best regards, Castlexperience Team

Must do!

Lornaida_A, May 2022

Must do! Not only is Monserrat amazing and the winery is stunning, but our guide was the best I have ever had in any tour. Mariana is passionate, knowledgeable, and engaging in a way that makes you want ro hear more about anything she is talking about. She is also considerate and thoughtful which are great qualities when dealing with groups. We had an amazing time...very memorable. Mil gracias Mariana.

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear Lornaid, First of all, I would like to personally thank you for the time you have taken in writing a review about your day with us. What a pleasure to hear that our guide Mariana was very passionate and enthusiastic. It is always inspiring to hear that your efforts are worthwhile to make your tour unforgettable. All the best!!
