Abadia de Montserrat

We signed up for a winery tour through viator and our tour guide was so amazing. It was the first tour he had done since the start of the pandemic and he teared up several times during the day because he was so happy to be working again. He kept apologizing for his English since he hadn't used it in so long.
The bus took us from Barcelona up to the Abbey... and then we boarded this train that was terrifying. lol Up the steep hill to the abbey with sheer drop offs to look down on!
The abbey is stunning, tucked into the mountain and as with most churches is just beautiful. There was also a little farmers market along the cloister so we were able to get some cheeses!
After the abbey we went to a couple of lovely wineries. The views with the mountains in the back reminded us both of Las Cruces.Read more
