Traveler reviews
Monserrat while in Barcelona.
Maria@ Julia Travel was a very good tour guide. The sights and views were amazing and would recommend a visit!
Great Tour with lots to see
Great tour, make sure to take the fonocular (extra charge) to the top for even more breathtaking views. This tour was actually through Julua Travel. The guides, driver and bus were excellent however there are a lot of people on the tour and I found the meeting place run down and dirty.
Montessrat with Julia tours
I would have wished to stay longer, but our guide was amazing and helped us manage time to do almost everything I wanted.
Please do not miss this special place
The guide was awesome . The headsets were terrible. I had to hold it on the entire time. She shared good knowledge about the history. See the black Madonna was fabulous.
Lovely day at Montserrat
