Amazing views and history - 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!

Lovely Tour - We enjoyed our time. We think a little more time on the mountain would have been nice, this tour was more of an express version. We loved horse back riding with the lovely view. And we always appreciate being in a smaller group so you can really learn because you can actually hear your tour guide. I would recommend, especially if you aren't a big hiker but still would like to visit Montserrat!

A relaxing way to enjoy the countryside in Barcelona. - It was very relaxing on the horseback surrounded with the mountain scene. A slow ride and no experience is needed.

Montserrat and Horses! - Our guide Jordy was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about Montserrat. The horseback ride was very scenic. It is of course a follow the leader type walking trail, but nonetheless being on horseback in the mountain air is always lovely!

Best of Things to Experience in Barcelona - First, our guide, Jordi picked us up on time at our meeting place which was very easy to get to. As we drove he pointed out landmarks, rivers, and explained some of the geological characteristics along the way. I don’t think there was one person in our group who wasn’t sobered and in awe of that Benedictine Abbey and its history. He gave us the option to walk up to the cross of St. Michael, and most of our group took him up on it. He warned us how steep it was. He didn’t lie. I think one of the reasons he was so good as a guide is his love of his land, the sacredness of the grounds of the Abbey, and his stewardship of the entire area. He explained each chapel in the Basilica, and explained the concept of the Black Madonna. You may well come out of this tour a believer. I have never seen such beauty and have rarely been so moved. And as for the horse riding, it was a wonderful ride through what is reminiscent of Southern California scrub with areas of vineyards and homes scattered here and there. It was a gorgeous ride. I would love to do all of this again. If you go, I hope you get Jordi

Must do to get out of the city - Frank was the best tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the history in relation to Spain and the monastery. You do so much and get back to Barcelona to continue with the other half of the day. I would recommend and do again if we come back! Amazing experience.

Views for Miles - Jordy was an amazing tour guide. We had a wonderful time with him visiting the Monastery, he was informative and answered all of our crazy questions. The horseback riding was fun as well. Luckily, we had no mishaps, all went smoothly, as the two guides for the ride weren't very attentive to the riders. They both led the way, talked, flirted with one another the entire time, leaving 6 beginners to figure it out. We all laughed about them "needing to get a room". Regardless, a good time was had, we all made it safely back to our pickup location and had a nice experience.
