From Barcelona: Montserrat & Catalan Winery Small-Group Day Trip

Leave Barcelona for
the "magic mountain" of Montserrat

Depart from Barcelona Nord Bus Station and travel about 1 hour to Montserrat by air-conditioned bus. On the way, your guide tells you about Montserrat, where nature, religion, history and Catalan identity meet. Groups are limited to 20 people, and transport is shared with other groups.

Montserrat Monastery guided tour and free time

You'll spend about 3 hours 30 minutes in Montserrat. Walk to the monastery with your guide while enjoying great views, and enter the basilica with a priority ticket. In your free time, you can visit the Apostles viewpoint, the Cross of Saint Michael and a local bakery; the Montserrat Museum and the Sant Joan funicular are available at extra cost.

Visit a family winery in a 10th-century castle

Travel about 30 minutes by bus from Montserrat to a family-run winery. Set in a 10th-century castle, it has been run by the same family for 36 generations and makes wine from restored ancient local grape varieties. At a local restaurant, enjoy a multi-course lunch of popular regional dishes paired with organic wine from the estate (about 1 hour 30 minutes).

Tour the wine cellar and taste three wines

In the afternoon, walk through the wine cellar and vineyards with an expert guide to learn how wine is made, then taste three local wines in the cellar where they age (about 2 hours). You can buy the wines you taste, and shipping is available. After the tour, return to Barcelona Nord Bus Station by bus in about 1 hour.

※ For operational reasons, you may visit another family-run boutique wine cellar on the day.
※ Tour times may vary due to traffic, weather and other conditions.
