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.

Alba was fabulous, she has such a deep and detailed knowledge of the area and was a lively and engaging host. Absolutely 5 stars for Alba, our only regret is that we would have loved more time, at least another hour, to explore the area.

The van he took us in was extremely hot. I asked him to turn on the air several times and apparently it was broken so an hour there an hour back sweating like crazy. There was nothing to do or see hardly because everything was closed. It was a big huge waste of time and the guide was not nice

We have a wonderful time in our Montserrat trip. Although for uncontrollable reasons, some enrolled travellers had cancelled their trip at the last minute leaving only my wife joining the tour. However our Luis, our wonderful tour guide has honoured their promise and we are actually enjoying the trip as a private tour without charging us any extra. This is of critical importance to us as we are celebrating our 41st anniversary. Meanwhile Luis is resourceful and gave us valuable information to enjoy our time in Montserrat. We are also fortunate to experience snowing which happens only twice in Montserrat during the last nine years. The scenery there is spectacular. I would highly recommend taking the funia cable car to go to the top and take a easy track to reach one of the mountain top (3000 feet) and take a full view of the surrounding. To conclude, thanks Luis once again and I would highly recommend this tour to you.

Excellent experience with our guide Javi. 100% recommended. Lots of information and made us feel very comfortable. If you come to Barcelona and want to see Monserrat I assure you that it will be a good experience with him. Thank you, Javi. Alex.

Very good trip! Wonderful view and a fantastic guide, Aleix. By the way, Aleix knows very well the region and is an excellent driver. At the end of the tour, he dropped off our group in our next visit. A courtesy we’ll never forget..,
