Enjoy a guided tour in Montserrat and visit all the highlights of the monastery by the hand of your local tour guide.

Meet your tour guide again to get on board for the second part of the tour. Oller del Mas cellar awaits!

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Oller del Mas, Carretera Igualada Km 91, 08241 Manresa Spain

Oller del Mas is not a common winery – its superb ecological wines have earned plenty of awards in the recent years. In fact, one of its wines won the “Best Wine in Catalonia” award in 2018. But the cellar is not only special for its wines. You will take a stroll by the vineyards, learn how the wine is made, and discover all of its secrets. *We work daily with different low-production, family-owned boutique wineries. Due to logistic reasons, you might visit another cellar instead of Oller del Mas.

Duration: 2 hours

We loved the historical information we received about Montserrat and the Catalan culture as well as the enthusiastic presentation and tasting of the Spanish wines and tapas we tasted after the tour of Montserrat. The mountain town was beautiful and our guide, Ivan made the trip wonderful. I would highly recommend this tour for solo travelers and adult couples.

We would highly recommend this trip 10/10 for the trip itself and our guide Agustina. The whole trip ran smoothly and was professionally organised. All of the guides were friendly and highly knowledgeable. Our guide, Agustina was amazing and made the trip what it was. Montserrat was absolutely worth the visit so many amazing views and Basilica is fabulous. The wine tasting g and tapas was again exceptional. The winery location was fabulous and the talks about the wine and the winery was really interesting. The wine itself was lovely and I liked all 3 that we tasted. The trip ran exactly to time and was far better than we expected. Definitely worth the price and would totally recommend if you are planning a trip to Barcelona.

We had Judit as our tour guide today and she was great! Despite losing her voice she still made sure we got all the information given and answered any questions we had. I would definitely recommend this tour if you’re in Barcelona!

We had a wonderful time in Montserrat and at the winery. Agustina is such a lovely person and an excellent tour guide who easily managed a large group with cheerfulness. She shared interesting anecdotes and was so informed about history—the day flew by. We enjoyed the charming winery and felt special to be able to visit such a long-standing family tradition of winemakers, the 36th generation of owners. The young man who joined the wine tasting was also very knowledgeable and we found the wine-making process interesting. We happily give this tour a 10!
