There is a lot of praise in the rewievs about Mateo, the tour guide and I have to confirm everything that was wrote. The Montserrat has beatifull views and Mateo had interesting informations about the history of this place. The cable train down the mountain is also a nice experience you dont want to miss. But the true highlight is the farmhouse restaurant with fine food and even finer wine. The wine bring the group (about 15 people in our case) together so you can meet people from all around the world. Definitely would recommend.

Matteo was a great guide. After he shared his expertise, we had plenty of time to visit the church and surrounding area. The food - it is one of the best meals I've ever had. So good, so much food. The picture makes it look like a picnic... it's a feast at a 16th century farmhouse turned restaurant. The one negative I'd say is to be sure that you know you cannot take the St. Joan funicular on this tour (Matteo assured us other tours w his company did that). I did not check that detail before buying. This is ~ 2 hours at the monastery with an amazing lunch. I highly recommend it!

Lovely trip-I especially enjoyed the lunch. Our guide was helpful and answered all our questions-pretty funny too. We have about an hour and 20 minutes at the monastery, which was plenty for us. The guide showed you around the area and then let you roam at your own pace. The art museum was very nice too. Traveled in a comfortable ~20 person van.
