Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Very good tour. However, the elevator portion of the tour does NOT include an elevator ride down. The walk down is over 400 steps in tight spaces.

    Chema was an amazing guide! My husband and I had a wonderful experience getting to visit and learn about Girona and Costa Brava. The sites were beautiful, but getting to learn about these areas made the tour so much more interesting. Chema was full of knowledge and fun facts. We had been in Barcelona for 5 days, so it was nice to take a day trip out of the city and experience other areas.

    Mark was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our tour with him. Going in the afternoon was the best to see the beauty of the stained glass

    This tour was amazing. Montserrat was beautiful and it was great to walk around and take a bunch of photos. The wine and tapas at the end were phenomenal as well. Lesly, our tour guide, was fantastic and made the experience even more enjoyable. Great experience for those visiting Barcelona

    Our guide Richard did an amazing job to teach us about the history and facts about each site we visited. He is truly passionate about his culture and we really appreciate the tailored tour.

    Brendan is easily the best guide we have had, and my wife and I have done many guided tours over several years and countries. His knowledge of Barcelona is incredible, and he continues to expand that knowledge with trips to surrounding areas and his ritual use of the library.
    Brendan created a tour for my wife and I when we casually mentioned on the food tour we were currently on, that we couldn't find a bike tour through Barcelona that would allow us to book as just two people. The requirement was four or more.
    The experience was much more than expected and his passion for cycling became evident when he puled up on his daily driver, a vintage road bike you could tell was very well maintained and cared for.
    The city, the food, the culture, the experience was first class. You could tell he was invested in bringing us the best tour possible.
    We highly recommend Brendan as a guide! What a great human being!

    Trip to Andorra is surely the best part of this trip, including unbelievable views on the mountains. A pity that there’s such a short time to enjoy the capital of Andorra
    First stop in Baga isn’t worth it but probably necessary for coffee and bio-break…

    Our guide Carlos was amazing. He was engaging, knowledgeable, fun, and funny! The monastery and its mountain-side site were beautiful and made more interesting because of Carlos’s presentation about its history. We really enjoyed our tour and would request Carlos when we make it back to Barcelona.

    This was a great experience to see and understand the family dancing tradition. The food was good, not exceptional, but nothing to complain about. Overall a great evening!

    I read a lot of tour reviews and choose this one and was glad I did! It’s seems like a big group but we were divided into 2 with Miró and Danny. We had Danny who was awesome and the tour was a good balance of info and light jokes.

    You leave super early before crowds and are immediately granted no waiting access to the black madonna and then the church then given 2 hours to explore on your own. Danny pointed out clear times and options and just wandered the shops and farmers market. Other options was the museum, funicular, hiking (we wanted to go to the funicular but the line was too long at that point)

    By the time we left at noon other tour groups were entering and it was very crowded.

    I think this is a great intro trip to what you can do in Montserrat and grab some photos. For most people this will be enough, if you’re interested in spending a whole day there they recommend staying at hotel next time but honestly I got what I wanted for this trip.

    I really believe the context is important and it would of kind of been lost on you if you didn’t already know the history and just showed up. I live in Europe so coming back isn’t that big of deal but if you’re traveling from far away you may want a longer day.

    This was one of the highlights of our Spain trip! Our tour guide Milena was absolutely wonderful. She is so friendly, kind and knowledgable. She showed us many interesting buildings, churches, cathedrals, and neighborhoods. She also took us to a fantastic restaurant for lunch and personally ordered several delicious tapas for our family. The day ended with visits to the amazing La Sagrada Familia and Park Güell. All in all, this trip was definitely worth the time and money. You'll be happy you booked this experience (and extra lucky if you get Milena).

    Great experience. We did not add the towers and by the time we arrived and wanted to do it onsite it was sold out so buy ahead.
