The castle winery visit with three tastings and a tapas lunch is a paid option, not part of the base ticket. ## Overview Enjoy a relaxing, scenic getaway from bustling Barcelona on this small-group tour to Montserrat, a beautiful nearby mountain. Here, visit the Montserrat Monastery and, if option selected, a boutique historic winery. Set within a 10th century castle, tour the vineyards and head to the wine cellar to learn about wine production and taste three exquisite wines and a local tapas lunch. Add-On: VIP Winery Experience - Private access to the barrel room with an intimate tasting of extra 3 premium wines. Upgrade your day with exclusive access to the winery's private barrel cellar, normally closed to the public. Guided by an expert, you'll taste 3 premium wines in an intimate setting, including samples drawn directly from oak barrels and large foudres with a traditional pipette. A rare and luxurious experience designed for true wine lovers. ## Key facts - Price: from €54 per person - Duration: 6h–7h - Rating: 4.89/5 from 8213 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Castlexperience Wine Tours ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Only Montserrat Best Value | €54 / person | English | Guided Tour & Basilica Entry: Avoid crowded groups — max. 20 guests per guide for a personal small-group experience.
