Tutto perfetto, arrivati a destinazione all'ufficio informazioni ti consegnano mappa per muoverti, una guida ed un santino con medaglietta della Madonna nera. Giornata faticosa ma è un'esperienza che merita di essere vissuta. Consigliatissimo

A wonderful experience and a beautiful journey amidst the mountains and breathtaking scenery. The funicular railway is enjoyable, the place is full of magnificent views, the Black Virgin Church is stunningly beautiful, and the museum is filled with beautiful paintings and historical artifacts. The cinematic presentation is dazzling and well worth a visit.

Alles hat super geklappt. Man sollte in der Wegbeschreibung erwähnen , dass der Ticketschalter sich bei der Bahnstation im Untergrund befindet. Auf dem Hinweis per E-Mail wird ein Foto von einem Platz gezeigt. Dort befindet sich der Ticketschalter allerdings nicht. Man findet ihn im Untergeschoss beim Eingang zur Bahnstation. Dort erhält man auch seine Tickets. Bis zur Statuion Monistrol de Montserrat fahren und bei der Zahnradbahn aussteigen. Die erste Station, welche Montserrat beschildert ist, ist die Seilbahn. Dieser Hinweis fehlt ebenfalls in der Beschreibung. Die Zahnradbahn fährt nur einmal pro Stunde. Vorher bitte den Fahrplan prüfen, damit man nicht zu lange auf die Abfahrt der Zahnradbahn warten muss. Ansonsten war es ein toller Ausflug, wenn man diese kleinen Punkte beachtet ich kann es jedem empfehlen

Could not do audio as Montserrat wanted a $50 per unit deposit upfront. Directions were bad. Had to purchase arial tram which worked out being way cool. It is an uphill climb, so 3 in my party had difficulty walking.

Lo que más me gustó del tour fue la combinación de naturaleza y cultura. El trayecto en tren fue cómodo y muy fácil de seguir, y al llegar, el monasterio impresiona desde el primer momento. La audioguía está muy bien hecha y ayuda a entender la historia de Montserrat y el significado de La Moreneta. La visita fue organizada, tranquila y con tiempo suficiente para disfrutar de las vistas y la atmósfera del lugar.
