    What you'll see and do

    1. Gothic Quarter

      Meet your guide and small group first thing in the morning at a convenient location on the edge of Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. Board a private minibus for the hour-long drive out to Montserrat. Along the way, your guide will give you a bit of information about Barcelona, Catalonia, and Montserrat itself to set the scene for your experience.

      60 minutes here · Admission included

    2. Abadia De Montserrat

      It’ll still be early by the time you get to Montserrat, so you’ll beat the crowds that tend to arrive later in the morning. Explore the basilica and 11th-century monastery with your guide. They'll share stories of religion, nature, and history that will help you appreciate Montserrat more than if you had attempted to navigate this fascinating space on your own. Among other stories, your guide will tell you about the famous Black Madonna (La Moreneta), a carved wooden statue from the 12th century that many pilgrims believe has healing powers. Your guide will also show you where you can see it from the basilica. After the guided portion of your Montserrat visit, you’ll have a 45-minutes of free time to explore the site and its surroundings at your own pace. Visit the small yet impressive onsite art museum with paintings by Dalí and Picasso, hike to a nearby panoramic viewpoint, explore the local farmers market, or grab a cup of coffee in the café.

    3. Your final stop on this day trip is a family-run cava winery, where the owner will show you around. Sip a glass of welcome cava before heading out to the vineyards on a 4x4. Enjoy a relaxing stroll among the vines, and if in season, you may even have the chance to do a bit of pruning or grape-picking yourself. Then it's time for a homemade lunch prepared by the owner and his family. Sit down at an outdoor table overlooking the vineyard and enjoy a delicious lunch with high quality regional products and paired with the bodega’s best wines. You’ll finish up with a look at the bottling and labeling process inside the production plant (one lucky guest will even get to take home a custom bottle) before heading back to Barcelona.

    4. Gothic Quarter

    Well worth the trip!

    Fabulous experience! Feliciano was a great guide. Fun personality and informative! This was Our 3rd Devour tour on this trip and each one was spot on! Wine and cava tasting was really good. If it wasn’t so expensive to ship we would have ordered some wine! Montserrat is as beautiful and an interesting stop. Nice to get out of the city. Our driver was very good and comfortable! I liked that since driver was late due to an accident, they didn’t shorten the time we had at each stop.

    Relaxing day with good wine!

    Dom was and amazing guide. Full of humor and information. Unlike most guides Dom knew when to talk and when to chill on the bus. The winery was also top notch. Give it a go, nice to get out of Barca and see the countryside.

    Enchanting Day!

    What a beautiful time we had with Feliciano! The pairing of a trip to Montserrat with a Vineyard visit- tour, tasting and lunch- made for an amazing day. The Cava and lunch ( and more wine) was delicious, the hospitality of the Joan Segura owner/staff lovely and the setting of both the vineyard and the Monestary earlier both enchanting. To top it off, Feliciano was charming, engaging and a wealth of information. We highly recommend this tour!!!

    Great tour with excellent guide 😊

    We would highly recommend the Montserrat and winery tour. Feliciano, our guide, made the history come alive. Very easy to meet for the tour. The “small group” ended up being a private tour for me and my husband. We traveled early to Monserrat monastery in a clean new Mercedes passenger van. We were one of the first visitors which was ideal. The place became crowded with bus tour groups shortly after our arrival. We traveled to a family owned winery, Joan Segura Pujadas, following the monastery visit. Beautiful drive, rich history lessons and great company. Winery tour was interesting and interactive. Vineyard walk/visit was almost surreal in its beauty. Sausage and white bean lunch at the vineyard owners home was very good. Great ambience. Wine tasting included many varieties. Our sommelier (wish I could remember her name) was friendly and passionate about her work and the health of the environment. We would highly recommend this tour, especially with Feliciano as a guide 😊

    Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Barcelona.

    How much does Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery cost?

    +

    Prices start at €169 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Barcelona usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Barcelona is not rushed.

    Is Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 228 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Barcelona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery?

    +

    Around 80 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Barcelona can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Barcelona and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Barcelona within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Barcelona?

    +

    Barcelona's Gaudí sites are capacity-limited and the official timed tickets go first, so most of the market is resellers with a guide attached. We weight those heavily on whether the guide is an architecture specialist. Beyond Gaudí, the tapas crawls in Gràcia and the Montserrat day trips carry the highest rankings in the city. On Outty we rank every Barcelona experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel & Cliff Jump from Barcelona, Gràcia Tapas and Vermouth Crawl, Girona & Dali Museum Small Group Tour with Pick-up from Barcelona. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Barcelona?

    +

    May, June, September and October. Sagrada Família light is best mid-morning. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Barcelona?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Full-Day Trip Barcelona to Montserrat Monastery & Cava Winery?
