This is a full day tour, and it has been designed for those that can and want to invest a whole day outside of Barcelona. It involves more free time than our other tours, making it a more exhaustive option to discover the Montserrat area and everything it has to offer. However, the shared content and information is the same than in the shorter versions of this tour, like the Montserrat, Tapas and Wine. Sink deep into the countryside surrounding Barcelona thanks to this unforgettable day!
Welcome to our extended and most complete full day experience combining both history and wine in a one-day excursion around Barcelona that will leave you asking for more! We have a full day to sink you deep into our wine country, traditions and history thanks to the wonderful Monastery of Montserrat and its scenic surroundings where we find many local wineries and Mediterranean vineyards.
In this guided tour you will enjoy the intimacy our small groups provide throughout the entire day. Your Castlexperience English-speaking local tour guide will take you to the stunning Montserrat massif, where you will spend hours visiting the area, both with your guide and also on your own. This tour includes extra free time (2 hours and 15 minutes approx.) for you to make the most out of the majestic surroundings of Montserrat!
The tour will also take you to a low production-focused, family-run local winery in the area. It is there that you will get in touch with the local traditions of both Spain and Catalonia, amidst vineyards and a great historical background! We select the wineries we visit carefully, taking authenticity and cultural values in high regards. You will enjoy an introduction to wine tasting thanks to your Castlexperience tour guide, who will provide with three local wines to taste and many explanations!
In between both stops you will enjoy a full traditional lunch prepared in a local restaurant with seasonal ingredients. A full restoring meal to keep going with this full day experience!
