Small-group Montserrat monastery visit plus guided horseback ride from Barcelona, with stunning views and beginner-friendly horse time.
“Lucas the tour guide was amazing. You can tell he loves his city and loves his job. Horseback riding was fun and the Monastery was beautiful. I wish we had more time to explore it though .”
Half-day Montserrat + horse riding from Barcelona. Tour the Benedictine abbey, see La Moreneta, and ride calm horses in Montserrat Park.
“Han and Mar were great! Unfortunately weather wasn’t in our favor but still had an awesome time. The horseback riding was my absolute favorite. Everyone at the ranch was very kind.”
Horse ride through Montserrat National Park from Barcelona, with Montserrat Abbey, the Virgin statue, and a regional market stop.
“Incredible tour! Our guide was SO knowledgeable and gave us so many facts about the land, the history, the culture. He definitely made the tour! The tour itself was so great. Montserrat is stunning, you get time inside the church, then a little free time to shop after, and then on to horse back riding! The land we rode on had a stunning view of Montserrat. The girls were super kind, knowledgeable, and gave us a great experience. Thank you!”
Small-group Montserrat monastery, park walk, and 2-hour horseback ride from Barcelona. Calm horses, big views, and included poles.
“Frank was an absolutely wonderful guide, I've learned so much about the mountains and the history of the place! The horse riding was a bit like a meditation for me — very relaxing and bringing me closer to nature around me. All in all, this was an amazing day, I'm very grateful to all the people who'd organized this!”
A small-group trip from Barcelona to Montserrat Abbey and the National Park, with a walking-pace horseback ride and Black Madonna visit.
“While Monserrat was beautiful and the horseback riding okay there were a couple of hiccups that took away from the experience. First, the van we were picked up in was very worn and dirty, which was not ideal but tolerable - until the final drive back into Barcelona that is. After an incredibly long and hot horseback ride we were driven home in the same van but this time withOUT functioning AC. I understand that unpredictable things can happen but the guide/driver made it apparent that this was actually a recurrent issue. If he knew the AC was possiblyiffy on an 90 degree day and that we had just ridden…”
Small-group Montserrat monastery walk and gentle horseback ride from Barcelona. Max 8, transfers included, basilica entry.
“Montserrat is absolutely a must to visit. It was very special with a nice short walk around the monastery and in the trails around. Amazing views and history. Our guide Frank was engaging and very knowledgeable… Horseback was a nice addition however there were no interaction with the horse guide or stops during the trail for pictures. I would suggest to add it for a better experience. Very good day!”
Private horseback ride through Penedès vineyards from Barcelona, then pica pica tapas picnic with round-trip transport on a 4.5-hour outing.
“We had an incredible day during our private horseback riding adventure from Barcelona! The highlight was riding through picturesque landscapes, which was both thrilling and serene. Our three daughters were over the moon, experiencing the joy of riding on their own for the first time. Afterward, we enjoyed a delicious tapas picnic and drinks that was beautifully arranged. The wine tasting and food at Montrubi Vineyard capped off our day perfectly! The wines were exquisite, and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly, making us feel right at home. Overall, this experience was not just a fun outing but also a wonderful way to spend time as a family. Highly recommend…”
