Review of Barcelona’s Montserrat tour with monastery sights, mountain views, boutique wine, tapas, transport, costs, and practical tips.

“The drive to Monserrat and views were spectacular high above the mountains. We had a great time and we experienced the Basilica with the black Madonna and able to hear the angelic singing of the boys choir. Then, to a lovely winery for wine tasting and tapas was very enjoyable and the winery was beautiful established in 954 with the same family over generations. Our guide Michaela was really good, informative and knowledgeable. Ask for her, she’s awesome!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 727 reviews · 5 hours · from $43Best value

Review of Mendoza’s $43 half-day wine tour, with two winery tastings, olive oil sampling, bilingual guides, transport, and practical tips.

“On time, well informed in good English, despite being in a group of 12 the 2 of us were given an English speaking guide whilst the majority ( who spoke Spanish) went with another guide. This happened at all 3 visit locations. These were 2 winemakers and an olive oil making business. These are not vineyards although each had a small plot of vines. Very good guiding and excellent value for money.”
