Alan, our guide was outstanding. If you love nature, getting out of the city, and learning out culture m, then this tour is great. Nice balance between the mountain and monastery. Alan was incredibly knowledgeable and very interesting. You won’t be disappointed. Definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our tour and the amazing monastery built so long ago before modern technology. We wonder at how those beautiful structures could have been built despite the elevation. It made us appreciate once again God's wonderful and varied creation and were intrigued as to what motivates the monks who live there to desire such a remote place to live.

Beautiful! Montserrat is a majestic and unique place to visit. A pleasant 1 hr drive by our fantasies host David . David was so friendly, knowledgeable and kind. He was a terrific host . I highly recommend this day trip from Barcelona.

This was the perfect ending to our 2 week European vacation. Montserrat was just breathtaking and the weather was perfect that day. Our tour guide was very friendly and he gave us a lot of interesting information during our hike down. The hike down was steep and quite challenging for a beginner like me who is unfit and inactive. Lol! The tour guide though patiently waited and assisted me. I highly recommend this tour and this tour company.

We had the most wonderful time on our excursion to Montserrat! It was a highlight of our trip to Barcelona, and Mont Escape made it so easy and enjoyable. We highly recommend this trip!

We were delighted to have had Jama as our driver & guide. He certainly provided a thorough account of the history of Montserrat. As we worked our way through he stopped often to explain the distinct elements of what we were seeing throughout the complex. Then after we got off the funicular and enjoyed the climb, he gave a terrific history of how the mountains themselves were formed over time. It was very personal to him as he grew up nearby and could speak from his own experience playing, hiking & climbing. Jama certainly made our visit all the more memorable. Gracias otra vez, Jama.

Jaw-dropping setting. Appreciated the opportunity to exprrience the mountaintops and to hike (mostly downhill). Wonderful historical, spiritual, and geological experience.

This tour is awesome! Our guide, Alan, was very informative and friendly. The basilica is beautiful and views from the funicular are stunning. The walk down the mountain is easy and there are several shops and places to grab some food/drinks if needed. The best part is that you get there early when there are no crowds. It was clear that Alan wanted us to have a great time and enjoyed giving this tour.
