Montse started us off with a quick tour of Montserrat. She gave us several options for free time activities and walked us through the market. Following free time, she handed us off to Victor who was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a lot of good information regarding the wines. He also had a lot of personal stories connected to each wine. The time at each activity was perfect. The lunch was also very tasty.

Our guide Yerai was wonderful. I watched him help a handicap individual from another tour with great care. He was very knowledgeable about the wines and worked diligently to ensure a good experience for everyone in the party. Be aware that you can have delays at the basilica on Sundays. Not the fault of the tour. I actually like the respect for the church service but be aware when you are planning. Great experience. Would recommend.

Great views. Wine tasting was rushed. Guide had limited knowledge on wine and followed a very scripted speech. Transportation very comfortable. Nice day..

This may have been one of the best tours I have ever taken in our many trips over the years. The tour was well-organized, left plenty of time to explore each stop, the scenery was spectacular, and the food and wine were delicious. I can’t say enough about our tour guide, Yerai. I think I learned more about the country from him in 30 minutes than days worth of visits to museums. His commentary was funny and interesting on top of it. It was an amazing day that I will not soon forget.

You’ll hear a lot of the history about the monestary and the wine family. The guide is very knowledgeable and attentive to his group! Xavi was the best! Bring a water bottle and a hand held fan.
