Montserrat Afternoon Tour

The mountain of Montserrat and "La Moreneta", the Virgin patron saint of Catalonia, are undeniable symbols of the land. The beautiful mountain silhouette is seen from menu spots in Catalonia and it is a beloved place for the Catalans. The sanctuary of the Virgin Mary of Montserrat has its historical origins in the hermitage of Santa Maria. In 1025, Oliba, Abbot of Ripoll and Bishop of Vic, founded a new monastery at the hermitage of Santa Maria de Montserrat. The little monastery soon began to receive pilgrims and visitors, who contributed to the spread of stories about miracles and wonders performed by the Virgin. On this tour, you’ll discover the impressive basilica and the throne of the Virgin, and be able to enjoy the performance of the boy’s choir (subject to their calendar). You will also taste some local delights! Afternoons are the best time of the day to visit this impressive site. It will be less crowded and you will enjoy the magical atmosphere as the sun goes down.

Girona and Dali Museum Tour

Girona is a very charming city and has even been the scene of "Game of Thrones" on several occasions. It has one of the most beautiful old towns in Catalonia, featuring its walls, its Jewish quarter and its Gothic cathedral. It is also one of the most internationally recognized gastronomic enclaves, featuring the famous restaurant El Celler de Can Roca, with three Michelin stars and twice named as the best in the world. You will also find the bridge of the Old Fishmongers by Gustave Eiffel. It is definitely worth wandering around and getting lost in this city to discover all its corners! This tour will combine Girona with a visit to Dalí Museum in Figueres. To understand Salvador Dalí is to understand his world. A world full of symbolism, magic and surrealism, into which you will step to get a rather singular view of the painter. You will discover where he drew his inspiration and uncover the genuine artist through his museum, with the aim to delve deeper into one of the most important artists of the 20th century.
