Montserrat visit with tour guide Javi - We had a wonderful morning at Montserrat with the family. Although it was overcast sky, it actually made for a very unique view with the clouds going thru the peaks and buildings. It quickly cleared up and got a better view in afternoon. We beat the crowds going early. Javi was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable, and friendly. He was very accommodating and gave us a good overview on the drive up which helped us plan our trip. Highly recommend Javi.

- We had an absolutely unforgettable experience on our Montserrat tour with Javi! From the very beginning, Javi was kind, pleasant, and incredibly friendly—he made us feel comfortable and welcome right away. His deep knowledge of the area, its history, and cultural significance truly enhanced every moment of the tour. Javi wasn’t just a fantastic guide, he was also our unofficial family photographer—always ready to capture beautiful moments for us with a smile. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a perfect day. Montserrat itself was breathtaking. The Basilica was stunning, peaceful, and awe-inspiring. And the hike to the cross at the peak? Absolutely worth it! The views over the valley and back toward the monastery were nothing short of spectacular. This tour was a highlight of our trip, and Javi made it all the more special. Highly, highly recommended!

A great guide at Monserrat. - Matt was a great guide...aware of all his guests and their needs, knowledgeable, and paced the tour well. The little extras, such as taking a photo of each small group before the entrance to the church and providing info about the museum and funicular, was very helpful in making the most of our time.

Amazing half day to Monserrat - Javi was a great guide. He accommodated our group and catered to our needs/wants. We had three children with us (ages 6-10), as well as grandparents and he truly made the trip enjoyable.

Small group tour of Montserrat a must do in Barcelona! - We had a great 1/2 day tour with Teo this morning. He picked us up at the hotel, with great communication. He explained several pieces of history on the drive to Montserrat and was precise in puck up instructions. He walked us through the monestary and gave us free time to visit the museum or any other activity you wished. It was my first time to see a Monet and Picasso so I was quite intrigued to visit the museum. Highly recommend the small group tour. My partner has motion sickness and riding in front was necessary and the tour company accommodated us which was so helpful. Thanks to Teo for driving us safely and efficiently :)
