Activity itinerary

Montana de Montserrat
  • 30m
The Rocky Massif of Montserrat has been declared as Natural Park in 1987, and characterised by the rounded shape of its peaks. This incredible 4000-foot wonder is easily recognisable by its ''serrated'' top from which it got his name. Once you reach the monastery, you have plenty of options and your guide will always adjust to your interests. We invite you to take an easy walk of around 30 min to enjoy one of the most astonishing views of the natural park, but if you wish you can also decide to enjoy other activities that the mountain offers.
Abadia de Montserrat
  • 30m
Montserrat Basilica, located in the stunning Montserrat mountain range in Catalonia, Spain, is a revered site of pilgrimage and natural beauty. Known for housing the famous statue of the Black Madonna, La Moreneta, the basilica is a significant spiritual and cultural landmark. Its breathtaking setting amidst rocky cliffs offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, making it a popular destination for both worshippers and tourists alike. Visitors can explore the basilica's rich history, beautiful architecture, and serene atmosphere, all while experiencing the spiritual energy that has drawn people since 12th century.

It’s a great way to see the site. You won’t have time to do it all since you pick one activity from a list of 5 and then tour the Basilica. Our guide, Javi, was wonderful. He was so knowledgeable about everything from Spanish history to culture to religion. His sense of humor was also a delight.

Wonderful trip except the fog made it hard to see at the monastery. Great guide and very knowledgeable. Would love to do it again without the fog!

I will say that traveling in a small personal car was a surprise, it made it really tight and awkward with strangers, luckily the ride isn't too long from Barcelona. Our guide Alex was very friendly and knowledgeable. The mountains are breathtaking and the monastery is truly beautiful. I'm glad we went!

Carlos was an excellent tour guide. He engaged with each of us by asking questions and then sharing information about himself. He pointed out interesting facts and scenery on the trip to and from Montserrat and gave us ample free time on our own.

What a great experience we had thanks to our Guide, Carlos. He was so welcoming and was able to answer all of our questions. We had foggy and rainy weather but thanks to Carlos, it was a fun and interesting adventure to and from Montserrat. Our time in the Basilica and the opportunity to see the Virgin of Montserrat and learn her history was the highlight of our experience. Many thanks to Carlos for making this experience possible for our group!

A longer journey than I had anticipated but our guide was very knowledgeable. He shared his climbing experiences with us. The mtn was fogged in but then the clouds parted for wonderful vistas.
