Overall it was a nice half day tour. We started with horseback riding, Laura was a wonderful guide with the horses . it was gorgeous and picturesque. We were then transferred to Monserrat where we met up with our guide Lucas. He was fine, provided a brief history of the area and Monastery but then we only had 20 min to explore on our own (all in all less than an hour there which felt a bit too short for us.
