Embark on our top-selling combo: the Montserrat & Wine tour, expertly designed to showcase the breathtaking beauty of Barcelona’s countryside in a shorter, more intimate format!
Your adventure begins with a visit to the stunning Montserrat Monastery, where you'll explore the heart of Catalonia's most magical mountain with your group. Led by a knowledgeable English-speaking local guide, you'll spend an hour uncovering the rich and captivating history of this awe-inspiring religious site. As you take in the breathtaking views, you'll feel the spiritual essence of the mountain. After the guided portion, you’ll have some free time to wander and discover the area at your own pace, ensuring you soak in every moment. If you choose the 9:45 departure, you'll have a chance to access the throne of the Virgin Mary and listen to the Boy's Choir (tickets and availability for both activities must be checked on Montserrat's website).
Next, we seamlessly combine the region's rich historical tapestry with its renowned wine country—this is the hallmark of our tour! Your guide will lead you to a charming boutique winery, uniquely set in a medieval castle that dates back to the 10th century, still lovingly owned by the same family for 36 generations. During your visit, you'll explore the estate's beautiful grounds, enjoy a selection of delicious local tapas, and partake in a memorable tasting of three exquisite wines. Each sip will offer you a taste of the area's rich culinary heritage and winemaking traditions—an unforgettable experience that will stay with you long after the tour concludes!
