What you can expect

Enjoy the natural splendour of the countryside surrounding Barcelona on the walking trails of Montserrat and feel the fresh sea breeze aboard a yacht with a cruise along the coast. See the city from all angles as you appreciate the view from the hills and the calm waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

Montserrat Half-Day Tour
A ride from central Barcelona carries you to Montserrat, the monastic centre of Catalonia, whose jagged peaks and peculiar rock formations form an instantly recognisable serrated, saw-like skyline. Visit the sanctuary that houses the Virgin of Montserrat, Catalonia's patron saint, and then stop at the fascinating Museum of Montserrat, whose collections feature archaeology, the Biblical East, modern painting, and sculpture.

Montserrat has many walking paths ranging from easy strolls to serious hikes. Each trail offers a different perspective of the stunning landscape that surrounds you, and many are peppered with chapels and other historical icons. If you'd rather not walk at all, railways and cable cars offer equally memorable views of the area before you return to Barcelona in the early afternoon.

Mediterranean Sailing Cruise
In the evening, make your way to the waterfront and gaze up at the city as you cast off into the sea aboard a luxurious yacht. Enjoy a different angle as you see famous landmarks like the egg-shaped Agbar Tower, Montjuïc Castle, and the bustling promenade. You can assist the skipper or simply unwind, relaxing and enjoying the view while sunbathing on the open deck.

Along the way, you have an opportunity to take a dip in the deep blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea or just sit back, sip refreshing drinks, and nibble on snacks before heading back to the shore.
