About this activity

Escape Barcelona's urban sprawl for a half-day immersion in Montserrat, a UNESCO-listed Benedictine monastery nestled among dramatic jagged peaks. This guided excursion combines cultural heritage, nature, and regional gastronomy—with optional private or small-group transport and included basilica access to see the revered Black Madonna.

Enjoy a Day Trip to Montserrat, traveling by car through the nature of this unique jagged mountain to reach the antique Monastery hidden among the peaks. Admire the architecture of the Montserrat Benedictine Monastery, stroll through the farmers’ market, and taste regional products from Catalonia. Visit the Basilica and 'The Black Madonna' with your tickets and, if available, enjoy the Children's Choir**. With your guide, take a light hike to La Creu de Sant Miquel viewpoint for breathtaking views.

This tour offers two ways to experience Montserrat: choose the private option, with hotel pick-up and drop-off, or the semi-private option, joining a small group of up to 8 participants with an easy-to-find meeting point.

*This tour is family-friendly and suitable for children.
**In case you want to have lunch, the guide will show you a convenient buffet both in price and quality.
***Tickets to the children's choir subject to availability and upon request in advance with an extra charge.
