What It’s All About
There are places where nature feels deeply peaceful and the wide horizon lets your mind relax. Montserrat is a place you feel in the quiet, helping you reconnect with beauty and find fresh energy. This tour takes you to the spiritual heart of Catalonia—a centuries-old sanctuary set high in the mountains, where natural grandeur, history, and art come together in complete harmony.
To get to this mountain retreat, we will travel comfortably in the luxury of a private chauffeur-driven vehicle for the entire day.
ITINERARY
The tour
Atto I
⟡ Montserrat: Catalonia’s Spiritual Heart
Immerse yourself in the pristine beauty of Montserrat, a famous nature reserve with striking rock formations home to an ancient monastery. I’ll guide you through the history and art of this peaceful shrine. We’ll experience the quiet atmosphere of the Basilica and visit La Moreneta, the famous Black Madonna and beloved patron saint of Catalonia.
Atto II
⟡ The Escolania Boys’ Choir
We’ll share a memorable moment attending Mass and listening to the Escolania, one of Europe’s oldest boys’ choirs (subject to monastery schedule and availability). After a quiet stop at the Virgin’s chapel, I highly recommend visiting the Montserrat Museum—one of the finest, most impressive art collections in Spain. Alternatively, you can recharge on scenic walking paths, like the gentle hike to St. Michael’s Cross.
Atto III
⟡ Sacred Art & Local Tastes
You’ll have time to shop at the religious art store or browse the outdoor farmers’ market, sampling local cheeses and honey. For those looking for a complete spiritual getaway, overnight stays in the monastery’s historic guest rooms can also be arranged.
