We had an amazing experience on the Montserrat and wine tour tour! Our guide, Delph, was very informative, friendly, fun, and made the whole trip enjoyable. She shared interesting facts about the history and culture, and the wine tasting was a perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend this tour and Delph as a guide!

Thais was extremely informative about the history of Barcelona from the time we got on the bus. As we got nearer Montserrat she gave us a lot of information on Montserrat.. on the wine tour Thais was knowledgeable on the history of the winery. The wine tasting was enhanced by her knowledge of wine in general

Such a fun and enjoyable tour! Thais is an incredible tour guide, she gave us a full history lesson while also making it funny and super entertaining. The Basílica and winery were beautiful and wines were delicious! Would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Barcelona!

We did the half day with basilica only tour, it was the perfect balance of being with a guide and having our own free time. Xavi was very entertaining, the bus was very comfortable, a great day all around

We had a fantastic visit to Montserrat. Lina was a terrific guide, very knowledgeable regarding the sights we visited but more importantly the wines we sampled!
