Mimiya11 Posted January 13 #1 Share Posted January 13 Having just been to Barcelona for four days in November (loved it!), we are hoping to find a shore excursion with port pick up to Montserrat. Any recommendations? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should you not find one, we did it without a tour. You would need to find current info online in case something has changed, eg the train timetable, but we went by train which takes you to the foot of Montserrat. To get to the top, from there you have to choose between a cable car or a funicular. And return to the foot again by whichever transport you chose. All went as planned and it was actually a little easier than we had expected it to be. You could try internet searching like "Montserrat from Barcelona" or "Barcelona to Montserrat" to help you decide.

Thanks. I did find one tour company, which does not do pick up from the port, but does offer a nice itinerary. Decisions, decisions. You are always a great help edinburgher.

cruiservirginia Posted January 15 #4 Share Posted January 15 In 2018, we spent a full day on a private tour with Spanish Trails. They picked us up in Barcelona and drove us to Montserrat and Penedes. The travel planner worked with me to plan the perfect itinerary including customized wine tasting and a fabulous lunch. Our guide was excellent. I would travel with them again.

I offered it up as an alternative as it is quite easy to DIY if you need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WisRiver Posted January 17 #6 Share Posted January 17 (edited) We were at group of six in Barcelona in November, 2023 for four nights before boarding the Oosterdam repositioning cruise. While we were in Barcelona we made arrangements for an excursion to Montserrat through Spain Day Tours. It was a great day. They picked us up at our apartment and dropped us at Plaza Cataluna. You will have to check with them about whether they will pick up at the cruise port. We have used Spain Day Tours on previous trips. They are a reliable company, and provide excellent service.
