    The time was very limited. We were not able to do anything else. We were told that we will have ample of time on our own, but we were only given 15 mins that too we had to walk to the bus. We barely had time to buy some cheese cake and run to the bus. We wanted to take cable car and go on top Of the hill but we couldn’t. We had tickets to try liquor but we didn’t have time to Try that either.

    Everything was wonderful! Starting with the reservation, the email communication, the meeting at the Julia Travel headquarters.The trip was on 25.08.2025. We had the pleasure of being in the company of Sandra, the guide who charmed me with all her knowledge and who explained so beautifully the past and present history of this unique place - Montserrat!

    Absolutely amazing experience. If you’re coming to Barcelona, even if it’s for a day, please add this to your itenenary. The afternoon option was perfect for us and the guides(Julia and Elon?) were just fantastic. They are effortlessly bilingual and added depth to an already amazing location.
