Description
Our guide will pick you up from your accommodation in a private vehicle and drive you to the Montserrat mountain. The look of this enormous rock mass, known for the whimsical shapes of its peaks, soaring up into the sky is simply amazing.
On the mountain you’ll visit the basilica where the Virgin of Montserrat, the “Black Madonna”, is located. Next, you’ll visit the Holy Cave where, according to legend, the Virgin appeared. To conclude this mystical visit you’ll hear the angelic voices of the Escolania de Montserrat, one of the oldest boys' choirs in Europe.
In the afternoon you’ll head to the Penedès wine region, stopping in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, the capital of cava. Here, you’ll visit Codorníu's Cavas. Its tradition of winemaking dates back almost five centuries. You’ll get to know the history of these mythical cellars and learn about the process of making cava. The tour ends with a tasting of some of the region’s best cavas.
