It was a lovely tour, Silvia was amazing and super kind and very well knowledge, I just wish the TD was more wary of the guests, maybe consider doing a head count of the passengers. Overall a great experience to do.
A day of fun !!

First and foremost the tour guide, which was female was rude and disrespectful to the tourists. The entire group felt like we were in a first grade class. She chastised an older gentleman for taking a picture she was in and demanded that he erase it. She embarrassed him in front of the entire group. It is also very time consuming when every instruction or informative material is being given in 2 languages. It is brain overloading. I did not enjoy any part of the guided experience.
Up and Away!

Left Barcelona by bus and a 40 minute ride the train station, where we ascended to Montserrat. Beautiful views; great geological formations. Saw the Brown Madonna and other wonderful sights in the monastery.
