Montserrat Half-Day Tour with Tapas and Gourmet Wines

Summary Description

Leave central Barcelona by air-conditioned vehicle and make the scenic journey to the Montserrat Monastery, a Benedictine abbey located high on Mt. Montserrat, just outside the city.

On arrival, enjoy a guided tour as you learn how the monastery stands as a cornerstone of Catalan history and spirituality. Take in the basilica—home to the revered ‘Black Madonna’ statue—and the atrium, cloister, and main square.

Afterward, continue to Oller de Mas, a winery set in a 10th-century castle. Stroll around the vineyards and delve into the wine-making process as you tour the barrel room and production areas. Finish with a tasting of quality wines served with an assortment of tapas and a dessert. As you taste and relax, learn the secrets behind each varietal from your host.

After a day of sightseeing and wine, your experience concludes at the original departure point in Barcelona.
