Stop At: Abadia de Montserrat, Carretera BP-1121 S/N, 08199 Montserrat Spain

Montserrat is a rocky mountain located 50 km to the southwest of Barcelona. It is considered the most significant and important mountain of Catalonia. The etymology of Montserrat comes from Catalan Mont (mountain) and serrat (serrated). The mountain receives its name for its peculiar morphology. In 1987 Montserrat was declared a Natural Park to ensure its conservation. The highest peak is called Sant Jeroni (Saint Jerome) and stands at 1,236 meters above sea level.

Besides the main monastery of Santa María de Montserrat, there is a great number of small churches and chapels, some of them abandoned. The main monastery stands at 720 meters above sea level. Nowadays there is a community of 80 monks that live there and follow the rule of Saint Benedict.

When you arrive, you will enjoy an introduction to the history of the monastery.

During trip 2 inconsiderate women were talking loud and laughing. The guide of the day trip was just besides our guide keeps on get the attention of our guide but did not mind all and keeps on talking and just ignore the rudeness. Why should our guide be bothered he get paid regardless. Good site Bad guide.

It was a very nice experience. I liked the organization, the care the guide had for us, the explanations, and of course other things that were not really depending on the trip organisers, like the weather, the fact that there were not so many crowds. I loved the experience.

Our guide was obviously much more fluent in Spanish than English on this bilingual tour. .not really a surprise, but to the point it was not easy to understand a fair amount of what she was saying. She did seem knowledgeable. We expected a fair amount of time to explore from the description, but ended feeling the actual time at the site was somewhat compressed. We did hear the boys choir sing their brief appearance but be warned the Basilica will be JAMMED. Still, would bee a shame to visit area and not see.

Booked through Viator yes, I was a little lazy if I would have searched for travel agents I hope I would have found Julia. I booked half day morning tour. Modern clean bus, excellent bus driver...not a fan of bus travel driver was the BEST! Very good tour guide knowledgeable Thank you Laura for a nice trip. 9:15am show time, confirmation ticket came with easy instructions where to show up. Counter staff at Julia were nice, just had to check in really didn't have much dealing with them. Only problem with tour, arrived at Montserrat around 10am or so made our way to Basilica 10:30am-12pm Basilica and door to Black Virgin closed till 12pm!! Thought that a little strange, so you just walk around kill time till noon, then meet tour guide at 1:15pm.
