Montserrat: Make your Own Custom Tour
Overview
Looking for a full-day escape from the city? You've found the perfect tour! Start with a dive into Barcelona’s history before heading to the stunning Montserrat Mountain. Explore the Abbey and Basilica with one of our expert, local guides, sharing the rich history passed down by the monks.
We keep our groups small for a more personal experience. Enjoy guided walks and free time to explore at your own pace, from a hike to St. Michael’s Cross to a Boy's Choir performance. (Check Montserrat’s website for activity availability.)
Next, we’ll visit a family-owned Catalan castle-winery, dating back to 964AD! Here, you’ll tour the estate, enjoy a multi-course regional meal, and taste three local wines, all produced sustainably.
Not sure which option to choose? Just decide whether you prefer 2.5 hours of free time in Montserrat (8:30 am departure) or a bit of extra sleep with a scenic ride on the Cogwheel Train (9:45 am departure). Both options are perfect!
