We were lucky enough to have a private tour with Mariusz. He had excellent historical knowledge, not only of Montserrat, but also of Catalonia and Barcelona. He provided us options on intensity levels of tours of Montserrat for us to choose. We felt very well aligned with our guide and with the tour we selected. We highly recommend.

Visit the Montserrat monastery and see the "Black Madonna" statue

Enjoy unparalleled views in the surrounding natural park

Listen to the angelic voices of one of the oldest boys’ choirs in Europe

Description

Spend a morning exploring one of the most mysterious and magical sights in Catalonia: the Montserrat mountain.

Our guide will pick you up from your accommodation in a private vehicle and drive you to Montserrat, which rises majestically to 4000 feet in height.

On the mountain, 2380 feet above sea level and surrounded by magnificent scenery, stands the Benedictine monastery of Santa Maria de Montserrat. It has been an authentic spiritual retreat for almost 1000 years. You’ll visit the basilica, where the Virgin of Montserrat, the “Black Madonna”, is located.

After visiting the monastery you’ll take a walking tour of the surrounding natural park, giving you the chance to enjoy unparalleled views.

Next, you’ll visit the Holy Cave where, according to legend, the Virgin appeared. It has been a pilgrimage and prayer site ever since.

To conclude this mystical visit, you’ll hear the angelic voices of the Escolania de Montserrat, one of the oldest boys' choirs in Europe.
