We loved our day visiting Montserrat followed by a wine tasting and lunch at a nearby organic winery family-owned for 1000+ years. The mountain was stunning, monastery beautiful. This boutique winery was sophisticated, and we enjoyed tasting local varietals, followed by a nice lunch onsite.

Cristina and her husband are fantastic hosts. We had an absolutely perfect day that was tailored specifically to our interests. I can't recommend this tour enough!

This was an exceptional all day tour with the first half walking at Montserrat including the Basilica and the choir. The second half of the tour was at a winery dating back a thousand years. The young sommelier who provided this portion of the tour was enthusiastic about the history, the winery, and wine in general. We had our most instructive wine tasting ever. Cristina is a charming and knowledgeable guide who made this quite a memorable day for us. We recommend this tour highly. We should also mention that the van was very comfortable and the driver Peter was very diligent.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on this tour. Cristina is a knowledgeable and very engaging and personable guide and her driver (Peter, her husband) was a great driver and also a great companion. We were picked up at our hotel and driven to Montserrat in comfort. Amazing site, history and scenery! We then went on to the beautiful Oller del Mas winery/vineyard for a tour and tasting with their sommelier, Tanit, followed by a delicious lunch in their very nice restaurant. The day went smoothly and was so relaxing and fun, actually! Highly recommend this tour and Cristina!
