Working on a trip to Spain which will include a day trip to Montserrat from Barcelona. When I look on the website, Barcelona-tourist-guide-com, it appears I cannot buy a ticket in advance which allows me to travel up to the monastery on the cable car and travel back down via the rack railway . Am I correct? If so, can you tell me how long of a wait I would have to buy each individual ticket ( one on cable car and one on rack railway) just before using them?
Also, on the tickets.montserratvisita.com website, there is an option to buy a basic ticket, “Ticket to the Basilica,” then there is another ticket called, “Ticket to the Throne of our Lady.” If I want to see La Moreneta or the black Madonna, will I not see that if I buy the “Ticket to the Basilica?”
Last, when buying tickets, I see a reduced price for “pensioners.” Would that apply to all people over 65 or only Spaniards?
Thank you,
Janice
