Sergio was a wealth of knowledge, being educated, experienced and local. Great storyteller. The monastery including the small museum, and the winery, were a great (and fun) value!

Our guide, David, and our driver, Pedro, were both fantastic! The monastery was very cool, the lunch was delicious and the wine tour with Carlos at Perés Baltá was fantastic! Highly recommend a great day like this one!

David and Pedro made our day muy memorable… taking us to mystical Monserrat and later to an enjoyable Cava wine tour that opened our eyes (and palettes) to new worlds! It’s the best way to spend a day on your next Barcelona trip!!!!!

David and Pedro were awesome, funny, and full of history and local knowledge. La Posada was a great lunch stop, with fantastic food and wine and friendly staff. Also fantastic service. I highly recommend this tour. Brad Gilmore, Nashville, Tennessee USA

Views were amazing and David was cracking us up with his mannerisms and stories about Catalonia, Montserrat and wine country. He also kept us on time which as Americans we appreciated. Lunch (La Posada) was delicious and then the wine tasting and wine guide was so friendly. Pedro was a great driver! Definitely felt nice to get out of the city of Barcelona for the day.

Nu was FANTASTIC!! She was super knowledgeable, gave good directions at the tour locations and very personable. I highly recommend her as a tour guide. A d she was a great driver too. 😊

Location meet up was easy to find. Tour guide was wonderful. Time in the monastery was plenty but we didn’t do the optional add on of Black Madonna. We did a short hike which was busy even early in the morning and mostly uphill but lovely. Lunch was good and very filling. Location was unique and we would have never found it on our own and was surrounded by grape vines for wine. The cava and wine tasting was really fun. Our lunch ran a little over (not the tour guides fault or the other tourists) so we missed a small bit of the winery tour but missed none of the tasting. I felt like the guide at the winery caught us up and made us feel quite at home. We bought some wine to take back to our hotel to enjoy later and wish we could find it back in the states.

We did this tour yesterday and recommend it highly! Our guide, Berta, was amazing and very informative. We were in a group of 8 which allowed all of us to see and do what we wanted. Trip drive out of Barcelona into the countryside was very interesting and of course the Basilica and associated sites were worth seeing- the size of the group was ideal , allowing us to do a hike while others preferred to shop. The farmhouse lunch was outdoor s in a vineyard and delicious with 4 choices at each course. We very much enjoyed the biodynamic winery tour and tasting. It’s a long day, but all of it very different and special and we give this tour - and Berta- our highest recommendation

Stephanie_R

Berta was an excellent tour guide in this small group experience. Plenty of time given to tour monestary, The Black Madonna, funicular, and shops. Montserrat is spectacular and the farmhouse lunch and vineyard tour were a lovely way to end the adventure. Would definitely recommend.

We were fortunate to have excellent weather throughout our trip, except for the day of the Monserrat trip. Rain and the micro-climate of Monserrat created a foggy day. Our guide, Nuria made up for it with an amazing trip. There was some confusion between Viator and the tour company, ‘Explore Catalunya’. Credit to Explore Catalunya, for honoring the promised tour, which led Nuria to be our exclusive guide. She was extremely knowledgeable, but also great to have a conversation with on many topics in Spain. This trip has changed since we originally booked, but the Monserrat + Farm House Lunch + Winery Tour was a fantastic day. We had several day trips during 12 days in Spain. This trip was very close to the top, only bested by Alhambra. Great job Nuria!
