What To Expect
Montana de Montserrat
The Rocky Massif of Montserrat has been declared as Natural Park in 1987, and characterised by the rounded shape of its peaks. This incredible 4000-foot wonder is easily recognizable by its ''serrated'' top from which it got his name. Once you reach the monastery, you have plenty of options and your guide will always adjust to your interests. We invite you to take an easy walk of around 30 min to enjoy one of the most astonishing views of the natural park, but if you wish you can also decide to enjoy other activities that the mountain offers.
Abadia De Montserrat
Montserrat Basilica, located in the stunning Montserrat mountain range in Catalonia, Spain, is a revered site of pilgrimage and natural beauty. Known for housing the famous statue of the Black Madonna, La Moreneta, the basilica is a significant spiritual and cultural landmark. Its breathtaking setting amidst rocky cliffs offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, making it a popular destination for both worshippers and tourists alike. Visitors can explore the basilica's rich history, beautiful architecture, and serene atmosphere, all while experiencing the spiritual energy that has drawn people since 12th century.

5.00The private tour with our guide Alejandro was the best tour ever. Alejandro picked us up at our hotel for a tour of the Montserrat with amazing knowledge of the history of Barcelona and the surrounding countryside. Alejandro explained the history of all the locations we drove through and took the time to stop at points along the way. Great tour

5.00Montserrat was magical. What a wonderful trip while in Barcelona. Our tour guide, Aleix, made the day a 10/10. He is super knowledgable, funny, and attended to the groups every needs and desires. Even gave us great lunch and dinner recommendations. He definitely went the extra mile to make the day perfect. Thank you Aleix.

5.00We had a fantastic tour of Monserrat with Vincent as ourguide and Joaquin as our driver. Vincent is the nicest guy and is so knowledgeable, on top of being super funny and engaging. And we were in good hands with Joaquim as he maneuvered his way up the steep twists and turns of the mountain. We highly recommend them both, you can’t go wrong with either one!

5.00This was so worth it to book. Communication was so simple/coordinated. Alex was our guide and he was fantastic! Easy pickup from our hotel and comfortable ride to our destination. It was a beautiful visit and we had a fair amount of time to explore by ourselves. Husband and I even went to the museum, which was also fantastic. Alex was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and he drove us safely back to our hotel. We felt very safe with him! I would highly recommend picking the morning slot. Much less crowded! By noon there were crowds and crowds, and we didn’t even go during peak season. Overall, fantastic experience and well worth the money.
Great Montserrat tour!
