5.00My son and I loved our tour of Montserrat and the winery. Azul was a great guide; kind, funny, and knowledgeable. The monastery was breathtaking, even on a chilly, cloudy day. We warmed up in the sun at the beautiful vineyard with some wonderful wines. The tour was run very well; on time and with no issues. I highly recommend and would do it again! Thank you, Azul!
Magnificent tour

5.00Monserrat is not to be missed when staying in Barcelona. Words can not describe the soaring majesty of the mountain and village carved into the mountain. The sine and tapas were very nice and well presented. Our guide, Ale was very good as was the tour operator. A well choreographed dance of busses and timing made it a stress free day

5.00Carlos took us on an adventure through Catalonia, the church and his love of wine. Using history, folklore and a bit of humor to create a picture of the people and region of Barcelona and Catalonia. I recommend this tour to anyone interested in history, wine and the region. Carlos is the best!
