Traveler reviews
Fun Monserrat Tour
This tour with Lesly was fantastic - she was sooo knowledgeable, pleasant and informative. Had some time alone to explore while at Monserrat after a thorough summary of the key points. Winery was tasty with opportunity to further try and/or buy wines. Lesly was a joy!
Fun and Educational
Xavi was entertaining and very informative. The whole experience was fun and I learned a lot with my wife about wine and certain parts of Montserrat.
Montserrat & Olier del Mas
Xavi was a great tour guide. He was informative, interactive, and gave ample time to explore on our own. I would recommend this tour to anyone who has time for a day trip out of Barcelona.
Montserrat with Superstar Lesly
Lesly led our Montserrat tour. It was my second time on this tour and I’ve certainly done lots of tours in the past. Lesly is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. She was passionate about the history and while I usually don’t remember the stories that tour guides tell, I will be able to recall most of what she said because she was very engaging. Montserrat, itself, is a beautiful, peaceful place. Highly recommended!
Memorable Montserrat experience
Carla was amazing for our Montserrat visit - she shared lots of interesting history, but with an infectious personality that was fun to be around. Montserrat was well worth a visit. I would recommend Carla for any tour!
