    The experience was great, amazing views. The bus and train rides were also pleasant. Out tour guide Berta was exceptionally knowledgeable, kind and personable. She was terrific! The wine tasting was good, the only thing they can improve is the food. For Spain, the food was ok, not great.

    I enjoyed this experience! Ivan and Juliette were very informative. If you are afraid of heights you might want to look the other way when going up the mountain. I didn't like the wine, however if you like dry wine you will enjoy it.The lunch was delicious! Overall I recommend this adventure.

    Berta was an amazing tour guide for the Monserrat day trip with lunch and winery! She was very knowledgeable and had such a great personality and a deep love for the place. We really enjoyed the bus ride to Monserrat with the fun facts and corny jokes. It was great getting even more information from Berta as we explored Monserrat. The free time was nice to make personal choices of what to do. We enjoyed walking around the little town! The winery was a nice stop - we thoroughly enjoyed the chicken dish. The lunch did run longer than we liked and the wine wasn’t our favorite but it was still fun to experience. We really did enjoy this trip, but could do without the long lunch and wine now knowing! Berta was still the best highlight.
