Traveler reviews
Great tour
Great experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and and explained the history of everything. Great tour
BEST part of our trip!!
My husband and I did this tour on Aug 18 and our tour guide was Ivan!! Let me start off by saying that Ivan is AWESOME!! He made everything interesting and fun. He was super organized and made sure to make everyone feel special and included!! We did the full nine hour tour which included Montserrat, the Black Madonna, lunch and the winery. So glad we opted for the entire day! The views from Montserrat were stunning; we did the hike (climb!) to the lookout point. The lunch served at the winery was also very good and the wine is EXCELLENT!!! To me, this is a MUST DO if visiting Barcelona. Personally, I am not big on guided tours but am SO happy we chose to do this!! Ivan, you are SO GOOD! It was our absolute privilege to do this tour with you! Thank you so much!
