This place is overpriced but costs aside the setting is awe-inspiring and spectacular. You can hike to St Michael's cross which is free and offers spectacular views and took my wife and I 30 minutes. If you want to further you can hike up to St Joan's. Add another 30 minutes.

I purchased this tour for my husband and myself with the understanding that the trip included admission into the church to see the boys' choir perform at 1 pm, as a reading of the tour description included that feature, which was the chief reason I wished to visit Montserrat. We were informed by the tour guide that our tickets did NOT include this option, although nearly everyone else's tickets in our group did. So very disappointing, and upon arrival at Montserrat I tried purchasing the 6 euro tickets to see the boys' choir but unfortunately it was sold out. Here is the description of this tour (and we were indeed present in time for the boys' choir performance): Overview: Visit Montserrat on this small-group guided tour from Barcelona. Travel by air-conditioned coach, and ride the rack railway to 1,000-year-old Benedictine Monastery complex. Tour the monastery and see the Black Madonna with a Catalan, Spanish, and English speaking guide. Depending on timing, enjoy a performance by the Boy’s Choir. Easy half-day trip to Montserrat from Barcelona Transport by air-conditioned coach and rack railway Includes entrance and tour of the monastery Boy’s Choir performance (depending on timing) During the tour of Montserrat, I spent most of my time there trying to resolve this discrepancy, even calling La Vacanza Travel twice from the mountain to confirm that I had indeed purchased the boys' choir option in my tour, in order for them to verify this with our tour guide. One La Vacanza Travel representative said that my ticket included it, and another said it did not. This was most distressing as I missed most of the tour guide's talk about Montserrat while trying to resolve this matter. Apparently I'm not the first visitor that this has happened to, and I was told that two options are offered -- one for visitors wishing to go inside the church, and one for those who did not. This was extremely unclear in the tour description. I urge La Vacanza Travel--and Trip Advisor--to fix this problem for future travelers. This was a very unpleasant experience and definitely not “Easy."
