Barcelona: Montserrat, Torres and Sitges Tour with gastronomic lunch

Get on a comfortable bus with a professional bilingual tour guide, and depart from Barcelona to a full-day unforgettable experience. Head first towards the 1,236-meter-long mountain of Montserrat, enjoy the wonderful views of the multi-peaked rocky range and walk through the sacred landmarks there. After that, you will be able to visit the Royal Basilica and abbey of Montserrat, which holds the famous 12th-century Romanesque carving of Verge Moreneta (the Black Madonna) and the Benedict sanctuary of Montserrat which provides a mystical backdrop of the Virgin of Montserrat, the patron saint of Catalonia. You will be then given some free time to enjoy the audiovisual exhibition about the history and creation of Montserrat, taste some typical liquors made by Montserrat monastery monks, or walk through the mountain and take some memorable photos with fascinating backgrounds. After a few hours, meet your guide again and move toward the prestigious wineries of the Torres family in the heart of Penedés, where you will learn about the whole wine-making process, visit some vineyards and wine cellars such as Bodega Waltraud and taste great wines such as Mas La Plana while having a full local appetizer-brunch that includes coca bread with tomato and local cold meat and cheese. Finally, you will get to visit the beautiful Sitges village which is considered one of the most attractive destinations in Barcelona with its microclimate, picturesque old town center, narrow streets, beautiful beaches, good food, and unique shops.
