Barcelona

"This is the best way to see Montserrat and Castell Winery! The mountain and monastery are beautiful and the wine is excellent, but Sergio made the experience really special and memorable. Sergio gave city background, location highlights, art information and connections, and then awesome detail on the vineyards the grapes and the wines. If you can request Sergio as your guide, I'd recommend it (but I'm sure they're all awesome). You'll learn a lot, see gorgeous sites, and enjoy great wine! The only sad thing is that you can't find the wine in Barcelona!"

"The Monsterrat and winery tour with Pol was great! He was very knowledgable about the area and provided a fantastic tour - a good mix of history, walking, eating, and drinking. He mentioned lots of local things like what to eat, see, and do. He also recommended great restaurants. Overall, I would recommend the tour to anyone and would definitely go on it again. Thanks for everything!"

"The bus ride to Montserrat was wonderful. Ana and Luis did a fabulous job explaining the history of the area… They were also a lot of fun! The views were amazing. The black Madonna was awesome! I definitely recommend this trip. The wine tasting was another wonderful experience!"

"Fantastic tour guides and great for amateur wine lovers and the mountain was very impressive. Excellent little art gallery too. Overall an enjoyable day."

"the trip was very well organized and overall the tour guides were very friendly, well informed, know their history and helpful with a good sense of humor. I enjoyed the trip specially Monserrat the Monestary and the church at the top of the mountain. the Winery visit was magical by itself and the selection of wine provided was delicious. My only comment would be the poor selection of food that they presented to us, nothing special it was not really tapas style in my opinion and no taste at all. other than that i 100% recommend"

"My boyfriend and I went on this half day trip for his birthday so we would have time to go out for dinner in Barcelona at night. The entire trip was planned extremely well, and the tour guides were very good: they were very good English speakers, professional, and made sure that everyone was having a good time even during the bus ride! Pick up location was easy just outside Hard Rock Café, very central at placa de Catalunya! Make sure to bring clothes for the weather. Allthough it was a warm and sunny day (for October), we still wore jeans and shirts, cause it is colder on the mountain. Also remember good walking shoes! We were lucky to visit Montserrat on a clear day so we could see all the way to Barcelona, so if you have the possibility, check the weather forecast in advance and pick a clear day! The tapas and wine tasting was the last part of the day, so I suggest that you bring a snack for Montserrat or buy some at the farmer's market (but there is little free time, so if you want to spend more time in the monastery or hiking to the cross, bring a snack from home) The winery was absolutely beautiful with views overlooking Montserrat from below and the tapas and wine were very good! At first when we saw it, it didn't look like a lot, but it was enough so we were full! We could have used some free time at the winery."
