Be patient with bus ride. Once st monastery you will be amazed at the property. Didn’t expect such a dynamic experience. Would have like some interface with monks .
It was a worthwhile experience with our charming guide, Vicenta. Her enthusiasm was transferred to the group. Not only did we experience the amazing scenery and treasures of the monastery, but we tasted the most delicious truffle cheese from the market. It was a comfortable ride of about 1 hr from Barcelona. Highly recommended having such a charming guide as Vicenta. On the return journey she shared links to recommended restaurants and places to visit. It was truly useful for me as a tourist.
Leni was very patient. Translating 2 languages during the trip. It was enjoyable and just the right pace
