4.9(1,342 reviews)

Spend a full day blending spirituality, mountain landscapes and the very best of Catalan gastronomy. Depart from Barcelona to Montserrat, one of Catalonia's most emblematic mountains, a National Park and place of pilgrimage for over a thousand years. Board the iconic cogwheel train (cremallera) up to the monastery, with breathtaking views of the holy mountain. At the top, your guide leads a 45-minute tour of the Benedictine monastery, founded in the 11th century and home to the venerated Black Virgin (La Moreneta), patroness of Catalonia. The visit closes with an exclusive tasting of traditional liquors handcrafted by the monks: ratafía and the famous Aromes de Montserrat. A historic Catalan castle-winery with stunning vineyard views awaits, where you'll enjoy a traditional Catalan tapas lunch with dessert. Your guide leads a walk through the vineyards and historic estate, paired with a tasting of three signature DO Pla de Bages wines, all committed to sustainable production.
