Additional Information

Uncover the magic of the renowned Montserrat mountain, a universal pilgrimage site and national park which captivates millions of visitors globally. Accompany your guide in a climate-controlled private vehicle from Barcelona, as you ascend the peculiar ‘saw mountain’ - a name derived from its unique assortment of rock formations. Allow yourself to be swept away by the stunning vistas and learn about the Basilica and Monastery of Montserrat, the dwelling place of the Black Madonna (la Moreneta). We provide exclusive early access to Montserrat Monastery before it is overwhelmed by the daily influx of tourists. Upon arrival, participate in a 45-minute guided tour that reveals the mysteries of Montserrat, enter the basilica, and lay your hands on the iconic Black Madonna. Following this, during your leisure time (approximately 2 hours), peruse the local farmer’s market, embark on a leisurely stroll to the Saint Miguel cross for an exquisite vista of Montserrat, ride the Sant Joan Funicular, and so much more. The tour concludes with your return to the initial rendezvous point in Barcelona.

  • Wheelchair accessible (Please let us know if this is your case since we need to arrange with the bus in advance)
Location
Placeta de Vicenç Albert Ballester

Beautiful Mountains and Choir - The mountains were epic and the boys choir sang beautifully. If I were doing it again I would spend more time hiking and bring some food to snack on.

Great! - This trip was great, the views were absolutely stunning and our guides, Brian and Ori were very knowledgeable and funny. Because it is only a half day, time is a bit limited and you must choose between some attractions but I highly recommend!

Great ride up the mountain - Had a great tour with Felipe! He did a great job educating us about the history of Barcelona and the Catalonian people. The mountain is beautiful and the rain actually added to the atmosphere of Monserrat.

Nice, easy visit to Monserrat - This was a very pleasant way to experience Montserrat as we were able to skip the main queue to the Black Madonna using the group entrance. Our guide Felipe was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. My dad wanted to come see this and was not disappointed.

Great experience and tour - A great experience with Felipe. He was knowledgeable and funny. The ride out to Montserrat was very comfortable. We also had enough time to explore on our own. The meeting place was easy to locate and an easy walk from our hotel.
