“This trip was so magical it felt surreal. The beauty of this place is like none other and the tour guides were absolutely amazing. They spent time with each and every individual, the price is well worth it they even stopped the bus for a young lady that had to use the restroom. They raced to find her a bathroom one of those things where you had to be there. It was funny. I would love to do this again.”

“This a a great full day trip from Barcelona! You will make 3 stops with time to walk on own. Guide was excellent. At the meeting point at 7 AM a family of four did not bring their passports and would not allow to come on the trip and the father got absolutely embarrassingly belligerent with the staff. They handle it very well I mean who doesn't bring a passport when you're visiting three different countries in a day??”

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 559 reviews · 11 hours · from $93

Coach day trip from Barcelona to Ferrari Land and PortAventura Park with included tickets, Italy sets, and record coasters in one long day.

“It’s expensive but if you love theme/amusement parks, it’s worth it. I recommend buying an express pass in the summer months. We bought the Express 10 and used 9 of the rides. We didn’t bother with one because it was pretty lame. We hit the 3 big roller coasters and had to wait in line for Uncharted. We had to buy an express pass for Red Force in FerrariLand because they open at 4:30 and the wait time was well over 2 hours. We wouldn’t have been able to ride it and make it back to the bus. It’s the reason we went and the fast pass was ridiculously expensive.…”

“We are retired seniors on a one month road trip through southern Europe. We have booked 13 tours through Viator in 10 different cities. This was tour #6. We chose the train option from Barcelona to Montserrat, followed by the cable car to the top. We walked through the market, toured the monastery, saw the Madonna, and walked to the cross at a beautiful observation point. We enjoyed Monserrat but what set this tour apart from the previous 5 tours we took through Viator was our guide, Pau. Pau was very observant and accommodating of our physical and dietary limitations and made sure everything was perfect. He stayed with us…”

“Tylko dzięki własnej inwencji mogłam umożliwić niepełnosprawnemu synowi (II grupa inwalidzka) dotkniecie Czarnej Madonny, czego nie zapewnili nam organizatorzy wycieczki (bilety dostałam w kasie bez problemu mimo, iż przewodniczka na pytanie uczestników oświadczyła, że nie dało się ich kupić:). Przewodniczka bardzo miła, opowiadała ciekawie, ale głównie w autobusie, dając nam w Montserrat prawie całkowicie czas wolny (nawet do kościoła o 13.30 - po krótkim wprowadzeniu w temat na dziedzińcu weszliśmy sami). Ludzie byli rozczarowani, bo cudowna figurka jest tak wysoko, że nawet podszedłszy do samego prezbiterium ledwie Ją widzieli, a nie mieli tak jak ja z synem osobnego biletu, który kosztow...”
