Review of the Montserrat half-day trip from Barcelona, with monastery access, free time, transport details, guide options, costs, and practical tips.

“Chavi was great. Very funny. Nice small bus ride up to Monserrat. 1/2 our group was going to see the Boys Choir, the other half had picked the Basilica. It was just entrance to sit and look, no access to the Black Madonna. There were many people queuing for the Black Madonna, so perhaps we should have done that but the Basilica was beautiful and it was nice to relax and reflect. We used our extra time to visit the Museum of Montserrat, which was surprisingly great. Some gems in there. Highly recommend.”
