Discover two of Catalonia’s most iconic destinations in one day. Explore the mystical Montserrat, famous for its unique rock formations and monastery, and the historic city of Girona, known for its charming old town and rich medieval heritage. A unique and enriching experience that perfectly blends nature, culture, and history.

Montserrat is Catalonia’s most iconic mountain, crowned by a Benedictine Monastery. Admire the spectacular multi-peaked rock formations and learn about Catalan culture, history, and spirituality. Enjoy a guided visit of the basilica—home to the revered “Black Madonna”—as well as the atrium, cloister, and main square.

Continue to Girona, a charming medieval city where Roman and medieval remains coexist with modern life. Admire the impressive cathedral with the widest Gothic nave in the world, and enjoy the colorful houses along the Onyar River. Cross the famous Eiffel Bridge and discover filming locations from the Game of Thrones series.

The tour itself was really good. Both the tour guides , Vosco and Martina, were really knowledgeable about the areas. They kept the tour alive and fun. They were approachable and very helpful. We were the only one (me and husband) in the bus who was going to Montserrat and Girona, the two really helped us navigated how to get to the high-speed train terminal in Girona to go back to Barcelona.
A beautiful and fun day!

We booked this trip since we were on a 3 day trip to Barcelona and it seemed like a perfect short day trip for 1 day. And we were right. The trip shows you stunning views of Catalunya and gets you back in the city by evening so you can wind down for the evening.. The trip was nicely organized. Both Carlos and Gomez very different in styles were great guides throughout our trip. Loved Gomez's sense of humor in Montserrat's high mountains. Loved Carlos's storytelling in the medieval town of Girona. The trip was fairly priced since it included tickets to some famous places and the train journey back to Barcelona.
Great Roger! and great tour!

Roger was a brilliant guide – knowledgeable, friendly, patient and with a great sense of humour. A fantastic way to visit two beautiful places in Catalonia, close to Barcelona, in a single day. There was plenty of time to explore Montserrat and more than enough time afterwards to have lunch and discover Girona. A highly recommended tour.
