From Barcelona: Montserrat Half-Day Small-Group Tour (Black Madonna or Boys' Choir Options)

Head to Montserrat mountain
early in the morning from Barcelona

In the morning, meet your guide at Barcelona's Estació de França and travel to Montserrat in an air-conditioned dedicated vehicle for about 1 hour. You'll arrive before the busiest time of day and enter the monastery early.

Explore the basilica and monastery with an official local guide

An official local guide tells you the legends and history of Montserrat, one of Spain's most iconic sanctuaries, as you tour the basilica and monastery. The guided tour is in a small group and conducted in English.

See the Black Madonna or hear the boys' choir

The Black Madonna option lets you see the famous Black Madonna (La Moreneta) up close. The boys' choir option lets you hear the famous boys' choir sing in the basilica, but does not include a ticket to see the Black Madonna. The basic option includes neither.

Explore Montserrat on your own during free time

After the guided tour, you'll have about 2 hours of free time (about 1 hour 15 minutes with the boys' choir option). Visit the museum, taste liqueur made at the monastery, walk to the Sant Miquel Cross viewpoint or ride the Sant Joan funicular up the mountain (at your own cost). Return in the same dedicated vehicle, arriving at Estació de França in the early afternoon.
