An Amazing Experience to Montserrat – with the Star Guide Elena! - We booked our tour easily and quickly through GetYourGuide.dk, and the confirmation with all the necessary information came through immediately. It was easy to find the bus station, and from there the real adventure began—an experience we won’t forget anytime soon. We were lucky enough to have Elena as our guide – and wow, she is truly amazing! Super friendly, full of energy, and she shared all the relevant sights and stories with passion and great respect for the Catalan culture. She guided us through everything with confidence and made the whole tour both educational and entertaining. As a surprise bonus – because we were ahead of schedule – we even got to taste a white wine from the winery where we dropped off the others. Wow, that’s truly great customer service and the cherry on top of an already fantastic day. It has been a memorable and eventful day for us as a family. If you’re considering booking this tour – don’t hesitate! We can warmly recommend the Montserrat tour, and if you’re as lucky as we were, you’ll get Elena as your guide. She takes the whole experience to another level.

Definitely Recommend - We booked Castle Experience after narrowly missing this tour yesterday (with Julia Tour - beware of their terrible customer service). Everything about this tour was great from checking in to the very end. Our guide Mayi was fun, personable and very smart. I came with my two tween daughters so the abbreviated time on Montserrat was perfect. The only negative was that the line for the Black Madonna was too long. Had we tried to get in it we'd miss the return time. I highly recommend this tour with Castle Experience. Thanks Mayji!!

Beautiful mountains - The day started with a history of Spain told in a very simple and easy explanation. Throughout the day Carlos explained the various aspects of the mountains, including walks and the monastery at Monserrat. A great day.

Excellent tour, great guide - It was an excellent tour. Lesly provided us with great commentary and managed the group very well, addressing the various needs of all members. Loved the train ride to the top of the mountain, fabulous views, the Basilica was very special to visit. I also enjoyed the countryside views both to & from Montserrat.

Highly recommend!! - The experience was fantastic!! Highly recommend - the guides are all professional and personable and full of knowledge and recommendations. Yerai was one of the best parts of the experience! He recommended things to do while we were at Montserrat, spoke excellent English and was a joy to be around when touring the monastery and surrounding areas.

Don't get what you pay for - The description of trip is not at all what you get. 1. No cog train ionly electric where you are facing people and cant see the viewncluded, 2. Can't see the statue of the monserrat. 3. Too many people - not a luxurious private tour! 4. Coming back have to stop for others and don't get back at the time advertised.
