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.

5.00We had an incredible tour with Anatoli, who was so friendly and informative. He met us in front of our hotel at the exact time he had text and drove us in a nice clean van with plenty of room. I highly recommend this tour. The views and the Montserrat Monastery was breathtaking and the history fascinating. Anatoli took our tour to another level with all of his interesting knowledge and perfect English.
Never Showed Up.

1.00The tour operator never showed up and we waited from 8:15 until after 9 AM and never heard from them. We were very disappointed that wewasted a whole day of vacation because the tour operator did not show up to pick us up. They said that they tried to call us but I did not receive a call and I had no missed calls on my phone. They did not email me or send me a text massage. I would not recommend either Viator or the tour operator.
Excellent and well worth it

5.00Javi was extremely knowledgeable and generous with his time. Our tour was educational and fun. We truly enjoyed the sites. history and even the experience hiking up to the cross. The Basilica speaks for its self, and the Black Madonna is worth getting a peek at. I would recommend this trip and could go back just to sit at St. Michaels cross and meditate. The views are spectacular. It is worth it, especially if you get blessed to have Javi as your guide. Oh, make sure to leave enough time to shop and to visit the market its great!
