Cava country and the Penedès vineyards are on the city’s doorstep, and Montserrat throws in a mountain.

“Francisco was a great guide, delivering a lot of history about Barcelona and its food. We got to try many tapas plates in multiple locations, and were full by the end - the paella choices were really nice (meat and seafood options). The wine and vermouth was good, with several varieties of the former. Overall I would recommend this tour to others looking for a bit of food, drink and history.”

“If you are looking for a great experience this is the tour for you. Our guide Oriol was very friendly, informative and warm and made our group feel like a family. From the moment we borded the bus he gave us detailed information about the sites and made the trip very comfortable. We got the most out of the time we spend at Monserrat and didn't feel we missed anything and the wine tasting tour was amazingly pleasing and a great value for your money. The wine was delicious, the food pairing was well thought out. You won't be disappointed. Just book the tour and request Oriol as your guide.”

“Ludo drove me and three others in a comfortable car to the destinations. She was mindful of mobility limitations in our group. She knew a lot and was pleasant to talk to. Montserrat was lovely — if you’re able, the somewhat steep walk up to the cross is worth it for the view. The winery was a great addition—beautiful grounds and a really interesting tour (and of course, good wine). I was traveling solo and felt 100% comfortable.”
