We went to Barcelona for vacation and near the end we wanted to see some of the beautifal nature scenery. Therefore we booked the hiking tour to Montserrat. We have to admit that this was one of the most beautiful landscape we have ever seen. Our guide was very professional and knew everything about these mountains. Since it was our first hiking trip we were unsure and felt uncomfortable in some situations. But our guide managed to lead us through the mountains with confidence and good sense of humor. Not only did he show us the beautiful views from these mountains but also told us a lot of the history of this place. We had a very good time here and would definitely consider to take another hiking tour in the near future. We absolutely recommend this tour!

We booked this tour knowing we might get lost if we tried to navigate the hike on our own. Boy were we correct! It was an unbelievable, impeccably planned hike and tour of Montserrat. From the picnic lunch (which was so good we returned to the same bakery the next day to order again and found that there was a queue a block long just to get the same sandwiches) to the patient and incredibly knowledgable and skilled guide. The hike itself definitely required good tread hiking boots tho I believe the guide would have adapted to the tour had we not had the proper footwear. The views and pace were amazing. The guide made sure we toured the "black Madonna" before the crowds came and we avoided the hour and a half queue to see the Madonna touring it before the massive crowds arrived to the monastery. Highly, highly recommend this tour with this guide. Only regret is that we didn't also book the Costa Brava tour that they also offer. oh well, next time!!!

We had the most excellent experience. A terrific full day hike that took us to the church and then up through the mountains. Although it was foggy, it was still terrific and Ferme encouraged us to be adventurous. After lunch his encouragement paid off with the sun breaking through and the fog lifting. Ferme was skilled and helpful to every member of our group which was much appreciated. Couldn’t speak highly enough about the day... just do it.

If you are in Barcelona, this is a must do. Sure, you gotta be prepared for the hike, it is several hours after all - it's relatively easy hiking though. The views are to die for especially on a clear day. Simply gorgeous. Cinto our guide was very patient with us and made sure we were good and safe. He had everything you would need for this hike, water, hiking poles, jackets etc. His accent is a tad heavy so one has to focus a bit on what he is saying - loved his impersonation of Napoleon! lol

If you love outdoors, this is a MUST. Our group of 5 hiked with Fermi in late May. We would never have experienced the trails like we did without his expertise. He knows that mountain well and guided us through an adventurous hike. You can take an "easier way" or the "not so easy" way. We chose "not so easy" and LOVED it. We felt safe and scrambled on the rocks. Excellent lunch was included and we even saw mountain goats. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I thoroughly enjoyed the history and beautiful view of Montserrat. My guide was an experienced climber and very knowledgeable of the monastery. The goat encounter on the hiking descent was priceless!

This was a fabulous day spent with a friendly, upbeat guide fermi. Hike was challenging for me, but in a good way. He also brought the best picnic lunch ever! This trip was the high point of all my time in Barcelona area and I had plenty of amazing experiences in this town. Don’t miss this chance to see Monserrat on foot.

Fermi was our guide, and he was such a warm and friendly person! The hike was semi-strenuous, quite challenging but very worth it and do-able. You do need a moderate level of fitness though (really can't see my parents being able to do this). Fermi knows the landscape very well so you can trust him! Although, I do think it would be very helpful if we were given a quick preview of what we were going to do and where specifically we would be hiking up to (for example, we'll be hiking up to point A first, then point B, then point C, and at X timing we will stop for lunch, in total the various hikes will take X amount of time, etc). This would be great because then the guests will have an idea of what to expect and how much time the various hikes will take. We enjoyed our hike very very much, but we just felt like we didn't really know what was coming up next or where we were going next.
Overall though, we had a wonderful time.
