Magnificent Montserrat - A must see for all

5.00Fabulous tour to Montserrat. The mountains are stunning and it was a picture perfect day. Loved every moment. The bus trip was super comfy with great commentary from Marc. Lots to see and do once you get up to the Monastery. Next time I'll take my own food to speed up not standing in cues for food and grabbing more time for hiking instead.
Beautiful views

5.00Great outdoor hike with beautiful views. It is a hike so not appropriate for those with poor endurance, mobility issues, strollers. Our tour guide Francisco was very good.

4.00We traveled by bus from Barcelona to Montserrat on a Viator tour. While we enjoyed the bus tour, we were very much impressed with one of the guides - a 23 year old young man from Surrey, England named Ewan. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the area, but it was his compassion that was noteworthy. My partner and I are handicapped, and Ewan went out of his way to make sure that we were able to negotiate the rough terrain along the way. Ewan offered his arm to my partner, who walks with a cane, to help her on the way back to our bus. Please recognize him in an appropriate manner.
Our tour was fantastic!...

5.00Our tour was fantastic! Ewan was a great tour guide - very insightful, helpful and kind. He also recommended other tours for our stay that are exactly what we’re looking for. Montserrat itself is just as amazing as expected as well.
My kindest guide ever, and best place in Barcelona
