We were collected from the Cruise Terminal along with two other couples for a tour of Monserrat. There were issues at the port as there was a large police prescence, but our guide kept us informed and we were soon on our way. Marte was a fabulous guide, very informative and knowledgeable about Monserrat, Barcelona and Spain in general.
Marte dropped us off at the view point just before the Monastery so that we didn't have a long walk from the car park and then met us for our tour around the Basilica, attached to the Monastery. Again lots of information and took photos of us when asked. Ourselves and another couple took the option to ascend the nearby hill on the funicular for the fabulous views and to see the Monastery complex from above, which shows the extent of the complex.
We were all dropped off at the end of the tour at our hotel or the Place de Catalunya for ourselves.
The communication from initially enquiring about the tour, booking and the issues at the port (which was out of their control) were excellent and we couldn't have asked for more. Excellent choice for tours in Barcelona and surrounds, with a good range of tours at a good price.
