Outstanding - We had the most incredible day with Rod touring Montserrat and visiting an amazing winery. His knowledge, hospitality and commitment to ensuring we had the best time possible was more than we could have hoped for. I highly recommend not only this tour but Rod as your guide-outstanding!

If you have 3 days in Barcelona... - I have to say my biggest thanks to Rod, my guide, first. Thank you. Your knowledge and skills as a guide are truly amazing!! Experience the majestic nature of Spain and the solemn and sacred air of faith. What awaits you is PARES BALTA, who is not a major player but is committed to winemaking. The vintners took the time to explain and guide us through the vineyard, the winery and the aging room in the basement. I'm very happy to taste five wines. If you can stay in Barcelona for 3 days, I recommend you to join this tour for a day.

A super-recommended trip to Monserrat Cava Winery - Rod, a male guide who also knows the history of former teachers, drove us around. I enjoyed the explanation in plain English, so it was a fun excursion with constant laughter all day. In particular, the lunch restaurant that you chose was a great restaurant full of locals, and I enjoyed the explanation of the menu and how to eat it. This tour and guide are super recommended.

Trip highlight - Highlight of our trip! Our guide Rod was amazing. Wine was excellent, and the monastery was unforgettable. Would definitely recommend. Had the basilica cut short as they had mass and would want to go back to more further explore

Montserrat with wine is - Seeing the views from Montserrat when the fog cleared was breath taking, especially since we come from a very flat area of the world.

Montserrat wine and lunch tour - Tony and the other guides were amazing! We really appreciated the efficiency of the whole experience, and also the free time at both Montserrat and the winery. Lunch was very good, although not traditionally Spanish. Would highly recommend.
