Our tour guide Merak was fantastic. Very articulate, knowledge, accommodating and welcoming. He is a wealth of knowledge. Followed up with an email with suggestions. I would highly recommend this tour with Merak.

Christine_J, May 2023
Monserrat was beautiful and super interesting. Lunch at winery was really nice. Beautiful setting. Our tour guide was (Mekat) was great too. Def recommend.
Excellent tour and company
Troy_P, May 2023
Yerai was a very good guide. He provided relevant history of the surrounding area as well as Montserrat. The lunch was adequate and wine tasting was good. It would have been nice to have some background on the wines that were paired with lunch. It is easy for tour guides and tour companies when things go as planned. But I think it is a better reflection when issues arise and see how the guide/company respond. We had a 20 minute ride from Montserrat to the vineyard in a bus with no AC. It is not the companies fault of mechanical breakdowns, but the response is completely in their hands. Was the ride uncomfortable-yes, but not life threatening. The company’s response was extremely appropriate. While we at lunch and doing the wine tasting, another bus was driven 1 hour from Barcelona to meet us and return us to Barcelona. The company also sent an email to everyone “owning” the mishap. Even though the company had no control over the mechanical breakdown, their actions and follow up email was very appropriate and quick. Yerai Was put in a difficult position and was very professional and had empathy to all. I would recommend both Yerai and the company to explore the Barcelona area.
Monserrat, winery and a castle!!
Rachael_P, May 2023
We had a great time. Philissa was so kind helpful and nonjudgemental! Monserrat was beautiful. The lunch at the winery was delicious. The winerry itself was amazing. There was a lireral castle there and it has been owned by the dame family for 1000 years. My only request would be more freetime for Monserrat (we had a significant amount of freetime at the winery). Overall would do again
Anays made Monserrat and Oller del Mas a fantastic experience.
Victoria_G, May 2023
We had a fantastic day on this tour. The views from Montserrat were amazing. The basilica and story were very interesting. The art museum was also great. We got to see some Picasso, Monet, Dali, Sergeant, among others. Anays was extremely knowledgeable about Montserrat making it educational and fun. She was amazingly more informative and passionate at Oller del Mas about the vineyard and winery. The wine tasting was fabulous itself, but Anays made it so much more than most wine tastings with her knowledgeable explanations. Overall, I cannot imagine a more enjoyable experience.
Leisurely day spent in Montserrat
HRandall_C, May 2023
The morning of our tour there was a marathon that had closed all of Ave. Diagonal and caused us to miss the tour. However, the tour company was more than accommodating and made sure that we were able to go on the next tour leaving that morning. Our guides were Yerai and Pol, and they were both extremely knowledgeable while in Montserrat and at the winery. We had plenty of free time and there was a lot to see while in Montserrat. The farmers market was a highlight that my partner and I enjoyed immensely.
AMAZING !!!
Charity_P, May 2023
Pro: What an amazing experience in Barcelona. Our tour guide Edu was awesome. Very knowledgeable, friendly and funny. This is a must-do trip to get a taste of history, culture, and spectacular views of the Catalan countryside . The wines are amazing. Make sure to bring a good pair of walking shoes you will definitely need it! Con: the lunch provided on the tour was not good

Alanna_D, May 2023
The tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Spain! Our tour guide, Fran, was not only engaging and informative, they were also so attentive to all of our needs during the day. They took the time to understand the dietary needs of our group and made sure everyone was comfortable at lunch. We cannot say enough nice things about the experience. Thank you!
Great Tour Guide, Amazing Experience
Matthew_P, May 2023
My wife and I chose this trip to Mount Monterrat and couldn't have been happier with it. The tour guide, Nuria, was AMAZING! The process with this company was very smooth and we definitely received our moneys worth. We had great recommendations from Nuria with our free time and she performed a great wine tasting. The food at lunch was great. I was a little nervous since I tend to be a pickier eater, but I was very pleasantly surprised with the lunch.

A wonderful day tour while in Barcelona
Lourdes_R, May 2023
This tour didn’t disappoint! It is well worth it while in Barcelona. The views and experience are memorable! Our tour guide, Merak, is wonderful and very knowledgeable. There was time enough to do everything the place has to offer. A word of advice, if you want to see the children’s choir, make sure you purchase tickets in advanced! We didn’t know that those tickets had to be purchased in advance and weren’t able to see it. It rained while at the winery during our lunch, but it didn’t spoil the experience. The rain is needed in this region.

Gus was our guide and he was very good and offered assistance where required. Would have liked to be able to re-enter church on our own after initial walk through but would need to buy another ticket.
