Montserrat, translated to saw mountain, is an impressive formation made of sand and shaped by the wind and the rain over centuries. Located close to Barcelona, your tour takes you to the Royal Basilica of Montserrat, home to the famous 12th-century Romanesque carving of the Virgen Moreneta (the Black Virgin). You'll also see the Benedict sanctuary of the Virgin Mary of Montserrat.
The second part of the tour covers the best of Modernist Barcelona as well as Antoni Gaudi's famous architectural creations. Admire the exterior of his richly and symbolically decorated La Sagrada Familia Basilica, whose vaults reach up to 70 meters. Then, visit Gaudi's bizarre Parc Guell, which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
