2.Montserrat Full Day Tour with Farmhouse Lunch and Winery Visit

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,068 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $131Top rated

Travel from Barcelona to Montserrat in a small group, visit the monastery and Black Madonna, enjoy free time for walks and views, then take the cogwheel train down to a 12th-century farmhouse winery for lunch, wine, and local liquor tasting. Guides may include Oriol, Brian, Francesco, Miro, or Xavi.

“Very fun day! Xavi was great and the Monestary is a must see for any Barcelona visitors. The winery was ok, but would recommed the tour options that spend more time at the monestary as it limits what all you can see / do there (children's choir, museum, cable car, hike to the lookout). Regardless, definitely book this tour!”

We then hiked a little over 2 miles to see the oldest tree in the redwoods - the Colonel Anderson, which is over 1,400 years old - before visiting a delightful boutique winery, the Horse & Plow, for delicious Pinot Gris and charcuterie.
