A magical, spirited place...

A magical, spirited place to visit only an hour from Barcelona. Beautiful mountain and nearby countryside. Guides (Carol and Andre) were wonderful. Only wish I could have spent the whole day there.

A great trip to the mountains

The trip was great. Merak and Adrian were amazing guides who told us many interesting facts about Montserrat and Catalunya itself. This one day trip worth the time and money if you are interested in catalan history and if you want to leave Barcelona for a bit.

Beautiful site

Carol and Andrew were very kind, courteous, hospitable and knowledgeable. We would have liked more free time, but weather and traffic restricted that. Views and the Basilica were amazing. Thank you
