Gracias! - Carla, our guide, was great; extremely personable and knowledgeable about the area and the vast history. Enjoyed the tour very much. When we arrived at our drop off area, we were unsure how to get back to our part of town (the Gothic area) and Carla, very graciously took us down to the subway and navigated to purchase the online tickets and then showed us which train line to get on. Thank you very much! Would highly recommend this tour.

Happy half-day trip at Montserrat - Went there in earlier July. Weather is good and not too hot, and there is not crowded. The tour guide Katia is super kind and considerate. Her friendly demeanour and willingness to answer all of our question made the trip thoroughly enjoyable.

Would recommend going in off season. Crowded! - Very crowded! Would be nice to visit when there were no other people there. The train there from Barcelona and the clog train up to the monastery was great.
