If you fancy a break from the city's hustle, consider this day trip. It's a delightful blend of nature, traditional winemaking, and coastal charm - all wrapped up in one unforgettable Catalonian experience.
Your adventure kicks off in Montserrat, an awe-inspiring mountain range renowned for its distinctive rock formations. This isn't just a natural spectacle, it's also a spiritual and cultural emblem of Catalonia. Nestled amidst Mediterranean landscapes, you'll be treated to panoramic views over the Llobregat Valley. Included in your itinerary is a visit to the Benedictine monastery and basilica, home to La Moreneta, the Virgin of Montserrat and Catalonia's patron saint. You'll have ample time to wander along scenic trails, browse local shops, or simply relax on terraces with mountain vistas.
Next up, your tour whisks you away to the heart of the Penedès wine region. Here, you'll visit a well-known sparkling wine producer that uses traditional methods. Your visit encompasses a guided tour of the Art Nouveau-style winery buildings, an informative talk about the cava-making process, and a ride through the underground cellars on a small train. The experience culminates with a cava tasting session – a genuine taste of the region's essence and tradition.
Finally, you'll find yourself in the delightful coastal town of Sitges with beautiful beaches. Following a guided tour of its most iconic streets, you'll have free rein to explore the historic centre and pay a visit to the Church of Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla.
