Welcome on board! Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime day trip to Montserrat from Barcelona and explore Catalonia's most famous mountain range. Take in the panoramic views of the mountain scenery as you ride our air-conditioned bus and discover the history of its medieval monastery by the hand of our passionate guides. Then, enjoy free time to explore on your own. You'll continue towards a beautiful boutique winery, and you are in for a treat! The cellar also happens to be a 10th century castle owned by the same family for 36 generations with magnificent views of the mountain you just visited. Discover their revival of ancient local grape varieties, which provide a unique glimpse into the region’s rich heritage. Savour traditional flavors with a light tapas brunch or enjoy a multi-course traditional lunch at the winery (depending on the option selected). After that, learn about the wine-making process, and enjoy a wine-tasting session before traveling back to Barcelona.

Wonderful day touring Montserrat and then a winery in a castle!
We spent a wonderful day on our tour with Montse. She did an excellent job at explaining everything, guiding all of us around without being bossy or pushy and allowing us to see Montserrat with the Madonna and a winery located in a castle. This is a wonderful tour that allows you to get outside of Barcelona and see a bit of history and then enjoy some nice wines along with a lovely lunch in a beautiful setting. If you can request anyone, ask for Montse, she does a fantastic job!
