We're planning a trip to Barcelona this summer and, looking for day trips, ran across Patrick's TH-cam Channel. This is what a video guide is meant to be. Well informed, smartly produced videos with no extraneous commentary. Each one is sheer perfection. Well done Patrick!
You have me excited about my Barcelona trip i been watching your videos and now trying to plan my week. I appreciate you taking for taking such much care and detail to help complete strangers
Its a beautiful place. I went there 6 years ago with my school and you have to make sure to buy some of the goat cheese covered in herbs that are sold in those stalls. Some of the best cheese i’ve ever had
Amazing place for rock climbing! There are so many places to see around the mountain. I’m always amazed when I see people climbing in the different spots!
Using the funicular is incredible as you get higher up and hike. If you are not a hiker and you are an American and never been on a funicular, it is an interesting experience. I don't know any place in the US where there are these. Just the experience of going up on a steep "train ride" is an exciting experience! The views are incredible from up there.
Was there last Tuesday 28 June 22. Got train from Clot and cable car from outside the station up to the monastery. No queues to mention while there around midday. Spent most of the day hiking up around the peaks. Absolutely mind blowing scenery.
Yes, we went with the tour, the history and views and the tour guide were perfect, we're looking after very well, the winery tour was so good, we loved this day trip.
This place is beautiful with breathtaking views. You don’t need to practice a religion to admire, appreciate and enjoy history, architecture, nature, and learn something new. If taking the train you might make new friends like I did. Thank you for sharing this video. This place is definitely worth the visit!
Love the video. My husband and I will be in Stiges just 5 weeks (April) and plan a day trip to Monserrat. We will have a car. Can you suggest where we buy the tickets in advance?
Once other thing, from Montserrat are there any other neighbouring areas worth visiting, that I can visit ideally in the same day. Montserrat will be a day visit so looking for local area suggestions.
I'm planning on visiting from Australia next May, I will be in London first, wondering if it's best to pre book a guided trip before getting to Barcelona.
Hi! Visiting Barcelona now and saw you walking down the street guiding a group the other day! Couldn’t say hi because of crowds of people though. My sister and I have found your videos to be so helpful. We went to Monserrat today too. Thanks for the recommendations!
Hi mr Patrick I’m tour guide from Tanzania my jobs dealing to make Same tour trips outside of Tanzania last week I was at turkey an china for tour but now I’m just to talk with you for same info about this trip when you get a minute reply to me please
@@PatrickGuideBarcelona While I visited Barcelona in 1992 (2 weeks before the Olympics), we never went up to Montserrat. I don't foresee travelling to Europe in the near future, sadly. :(
@@PatrickGuideBarcelona yes. We land in Barcelona but going straight to Girona. Still figuring out how to get there by bus or train. Will be in Girona for a week then go to Andorra. From Andorra back to Barcelona airport to fly to the Canarias before we head back to Barcelona for 3 nights.
Hi Patrick, Thanks for the informative video. As you noted we would like to get to Montserrat early in the morning. Can you please suggest a car or bus service to get to the site early in the morning. Appreciate your time and suggestions. Thank you for the great information. Best from BOS!
Hello Patrick, Great video and very helpful. My wife and I are taking the high-speed train from Madrid to Barcelona on 11/5 (morning). Do you think we have time to visit Montserrat in the afternoon. Any recommendation on the tour company? Many thanks.
You could do it with a car or private transfer. Public transportation would take a bit longer, but I don’t recommend trying to rush it. My private tours are usually between 5-6 hours from Barcelona.
When booking a train ticket there do I need to select a time we will come back or can we just explore and then catch the next train back when we want to leave. I’m afraid of having to book a late return but finishing everything early and having to wait for my train time.
If you already have hiking shoes with you, bring them, but to be honest if you stick to what I call the "tourist" trails - i.e., the one to the Santa Cova (from the monastery), the one to Sant Miquel and Sant Joan, the direct trail to Sant Jeroni from the monastery or the one starting from the top Sant Joan funicular station - they are not a must. There is a slightly tricky forest section on the Sant Jeroni trail before the final stairs, but it is doable. The Santa Cova/St. Miquel/St. Joan trails are paved - at worst you'll be on a large dirt track. The Sant Jeroni trails are partly paved, partly not, but they are not too difficult either. If you are planning to get off the beaten path, like hiking from/to the bottom of the mountain from/to Monistrol de Montserrat or Collbató - hiking shoes are a must. Montserrat is a rocky mountain, and navigating its terrain can be difficult without proper shoes. I have hiked a lot in Montserrat, and I love it. Definitely worth it if you have enough time during your trip.
Sweet video. What is the temperature difference between Barcelona and Montserrat? I imagine being higher in the mountains it will be windier and cooler? I am going at the end of this month.
Did I hear it right that you can see Montserrat in half a day? You mentioned that you and your friend made it back home for lunch..is it correct? I’m just trying to plan this trip and calculating the time. Thank you in advance!
Lo que es Montserrat , no lo acabas ni en una semana , la visita al museu , por ejemplo , ( un 10 !! ) ya té ocuparia media jornada . Montserrat no és unicamente la basílica con su escolania , és todo su entorno UNICO y ESPECTACULAR. Un consejo ? Si puedes , instalate 3 o 4 dias , informate allí mismo ( i turisme ) , solicita folletos detallados con rutas , sendas , ermitans ..... a visitar y alucinaras !! Yo voy desde hace años , me alojo 4/5 dias , llevo un buen calzado y caminar .
Hi Patrick. Just went to your webpage to see how much you charge for a tour of Montserrat but saw that your price for a whole group is out of our budget. Do you ever put together groups or is an all or nothing thing? My husband and I will be in Barcelona the first week of May and definitely want a smaller group (rather than a bus). if you can't, can you recommend smaller groups or at least ones that would get us there early like you recommend? Thanks!
Great video. Just one question I was told that we now have to pay to see the Black Madonna & to enter the Church? Is this correct or is it still free? Thanks for making time to answer my questions🙏🏻
Thank you! Yes, there have been some changes to the entrances and now the basilica has paid entry. They are still hacking out the details, but from what I understand you must buy the ticket to enter the entire basilica and to see the Black Madonna in one. Best to do it ahead of your visit.
@@PatrickGuideBarcelona ….. Thank You for your very prompt response. It is appreciated. I will be traveling to Barcelona mid-June of this year & would really love to visit Montserrat. Do you know which website I should go, to make advance ticket purchases to visit the Basilica? Again, thank you kindly for your assistance.

Hi, Pat! I am traveling to Barcelona in late September to pick up my son who has been living there for several months. I am not sure where to begin, and the time is fast approaching. I don't have flights or places to stay. Can you recommend where I should start?
Hi Liesel, I would check out flights that coincide with your time to be here. You have my link to Skyscanner in the videos if you choose to use it. I’ve been flying American lately. Hotels: Majestic, Petit Palace, Hotel Colon are some central hotels
Hi Patrick, I want to get the TOT ticket for Montserrat. I am trying to understand. Can I buy the ticket at Cataluyna Station and Espanya Station Does the trip only start from Espanya Station?
Hi Pat, Glad I found you. Excellent video and great content. I am looking to rent a car and drive to Montserrat in Aug 2021. What is the parking situation on arrival? I understand there are 2 parking options; bottom tier/ level and mid tier parking but what are the pros and cons of selecting either option i.e. fees, parking duration, parking area closing times etc. If we drive to the cathedral is there a risk of not getting parking at all or will the parking fees be extortionate. please advise.
Hey 👋🏼! If. You’re gonna get a car I would recommend parking up at the top. It’s only a 6€ or so. Peking at the bottom is free and allows you to take the train up, if you want to get the views and experience. Towns around Montserrat: Manresa
@@PatrickGuideBarcelona Of course I can, but it would be cool if we could meet. You seem to know everything about it. Maybe there is something else to see in Barcelona? Well, no hurry, my trip is planned for the summer of 2022. Greetings from Málaga!
Yeah, just kidding around! Let me know when you do come! So many things to see in and around Barcelona. I try to make more and more videos about those optiona
Hello I'm traveling with a 60 year old woman that isn't a big walker. Would Monserrat be a smart idea? I know the funicular goes up there but after getting off, is there alot more walking? Any info would be appreciated!
The walk around the monastery and basilica isn’t much. If you want to walk out to the view points, then I wouldn’t recommend it. But you can still do the monumental section

Hi Pat, my daughter, mother and I are planning to go to Barcelona mid October 2022, we want to visit Montserrat, where can we find guided tours? We will be staying at the Royal Ramblas hotel and I understand there are many scammers out there, just want to be able to find great guided tours and safe as well, I appreciate your help 😀
Great video just what i was looking for as heading to Spain on a Bike tour next year and looking for nice spots to stop along the way (Give me a Shout if you know of any Nice places to go for Motorcycles in Barcelona would be massive help)
I disagree. There is no need to go inside the church. You can do so many things that are not religious. It is a fantastic place. It is incredible to come here and hike. No religious beliefs are required. So no need to be early. If you are religious, follow his advice.
The church is part of Spain’s cultural heritage and that is why you’re seeing it in this video. This video is about Barcelona, Spain. Spain is a predominantly Christian country and Barcelona’s main attraction is the Basílica de la Sagrada Familia. That means that thousands of people (religious and non-religious) are not blind to the architectural beauty of the churches in Spain. They not only recognize its beauty, but its historical and cultural significance, without feeling threatened, angry, or fearful to go inside. They are simply confident in themselves.
The Basilica is absolutely beautiful. Whether you believe in the religion or not, you can appreciate the craftsmanship, the architecture, the culture, etc. Don’t go all the way to Monserrat and miss the Basilica .
