Itinerary

  • Passeig de Gracia

    Start this tour directly from your hotel or apartment in Barcelona city. We come to pick you up, so please be sure to let us know exactly where you are staying. Enjoy an overview of Barcelona city along the route, pass by Catalunya Square, Barcelona Cathedral, Passeig de Gracia and the Gaudi Houses, such as the Batllo and the Pedrera, and many other highlights.

  • N/A

    Head to the mystic mountain of Montserrat. This natural park, with its very peculiar peaks, protects the spiritual essence of Catalonia. For almost 1,000 years, a Benedictine community has lived in these mountains located 60 km away from Barcelona. On the way, listen to some interesting stories about Catalonia and its bounding to the holy mountain, scene of pilgrims since ancient times and part of the route to Santiago de Compostela. Your guide will share important information to understand the heritage you will discover during the tour.

    1 hour

  • Montana de Montserrat

    The Rocky Massif of Montserrat has been declared as Natural Park in 1987, and characterised by the rounded shape of its peaks. This incredible 4000-foot wonder is easily recognisable by its ''serrated'' top from which it got his name. Once you reach the monastery, you have plenty of options and your guide will always adjust to your interests. We invite you to take an easy walk of around 30 min to enjoy one of the most astonishing views of the natural park, but if you wish you can also decide to enjoy other activities that the mountain offers.

    1 hour

  • Abadia de Montserrat

    Visit the Basilica of Montserrat, house of the serene image of the Virgin of Montserrat, the patron saint of Catalonia, a polychrome Romanesque carving dating from the 12th century. The legend says that in the year 880 some shepherd boys found a statue of the black madonna, the "Moreneta", in a grotto. A chapel was built on this site that soon became a place of pilgrimage.

    30 minutes

  • Sant Jeroni

    Reach the peak of the holy mountain to enjoy a bird's eye view of the entire Montserrat Monastery and of the natural park. On clear days, you will enjoy uninterrupted views of the whole of Catalunya.

    10 minutes

  • Santa Cueva de Montserrat

    Since the funicular that brings you to this holy place is under revision, we leave the option to you. If you feel like walking for around 30 min, you can have access to the Holy Cave, where, standing to the legend, the virgin is said to have appeared. The site has, since then, become an authentic center for pilgrimage and prayer. From there, you will also be able to see the Cross of San Miguel and the wonderful views from this side of the mountain.

Wonderful day at Montserrat!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was an amazing tour! My mom and I had a private tour of Montserrat. Our guide Daria picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Montserrat. It was a beautiful and tranquil place. You truly felt like you were in the clouds. The fog and clouds surrounded the area. We walked around the grounds and visits the Sanctuary and La Moreneta. Daria our guide was fantastic! She was extremely knowledgeable about Montserrat as well as many topics on Barcelona, Catalonia, and Spain. She shared lots of history as well as the current state of the area and country of Spain. It was a great experience for my mother and I!

Omid was awesome.

Published on Jan, 2025

Omid was very prepared and knowledgeable. He was able to answer many questions we asked. Also he suggested us to visit Girona and helped us to buy tickets at station and we enjoyed that place. One advice for the tour company would be is to include any other spot to be seen as well for the price we paid.

Wonderful

Published on Dec, 2024

Great tour and knowledgeable guides. The transportation and to and from was very easy. After learning about the site we had plenty of time to see things on our own.

A great trip and guide

Published on Dec, 2024

We had a wonderful day in Monserrat with a most excellent tour guide who was knowledgeable, kind and informative. I can only sing her praises and would highly recommend her to friends and family. Our driver was excellent too and we felt safe with her careful and focused driving.

Guided tour to Monserrat

Published on Dec, 2024

Dulce is an incredible tour guide. Her knowledge of Monserrat and Catalonian history and culture is amazing and she answered all our questions in great detail. It was also wonderful to be picked up right outside the apartment we were staying in. The trip to Monserrat was one of the highlights of our visit and I would highly recommend this tour.
