This was a great tour from beginning to end. Our meet time was 0945, and we did Montserrat, with the full lunch, and wine tasting. To get to the meeting spot, it was easier putting Castlexperience Wine Tour into Google Maps, then to use what was on our Viator Confirmation. We checked in and board an A/C motor coach. There was a 20 minute narration about Barcelona, and then about 40 min of quiet to take in the countryside or take a siesta. Upon arrival at Montserrat, we were broken into smaller groups. Our group had Vince, who spent about an hour taking us to various spots, allowing time for photos, and providing details about the area. He ended his tour in the Bascilica, which is beautiful and a mist see. We even saw 3 Monks, and there was a wedding ceremony going on. Once Vince cut us loose for free time, we had a little over an hour to explore. There is a really nice art gallery for 10 euro or you can walk to the point of Montserrat for a better view from the mountain, and back towards the Bascilica. We did the art gallery, which only then left enough time to go to the farmers market to sample cheeses, honey, various patries, and nuts. After meeting up with Vince at about 1:20pm, we walked to another picture worthy spot, before boarding the bus to the vineyard, which was about 30 min away. The vineyard was very nice, with great views back to Montserrat. Vince spent about 10 min talking about the vineyard and we then sat for lunch. Lunch was good, with a tomato gazpacho, chicken, and a dessert, and two glasses of wine are included (can pay for more if you wish). We were very hungry by this point. The wine tasting afterwards included 3 wines. Vince is a wine expert for sure and very passionate about these wines. The first two wines, a white and a red, were young and basic. The 3rd wine, a 5-yr was tasty. After the tasting we then went to a lookout area with a nice view and could sample additional wine or glass for a fee. Lastly, you can hit the gift shop for bottles or other items. Great tour from start to finish. I would have loved more time at Montserrat, but based on what we books with lunch and tasting that wasnt possible, considering we already got back at 7pm. Highly recommended!

The trip was very nice, but it was made very special by Bel, our guide. She shared a wealth of information about every place we went. Bel has a wonderful sense of humor. Her knowledge about the wine we shared was excellent. You should ask for Bel when arranging this tour!

Our tour guide Vince approached everything with such heartfelt enthusiasm and made our tour incredibly informative and fun! The tour was well paced and Vince did a great job explaining the history and significance of Montserrat. At the winery we learned new things about wine, wine making and wine tasting that we had never heard before and we had a fabulous time. We would highly recommend this tour and Vince!
