Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: La Barceloneta, Barcelona Spain

For your first tasting adventure, we will visit an authentic family-owned Catalan bar where you will be introduced to two truly traditional dishes and to make sure that you start things off on the right foot, you will have some of the best Cava you will ever experience!

Duration: 50 minutes

Stop At: El Born, La Ribera, Ciutat Vella, 08003 Barcelona Spain

While we walk into the heart of the medieval Born neighborhood and to continue with our foodie adventure we will stop at a 14th-century bodega (wine cellar). This wonderful bodega is always filled with locals living life to the fullest, so let us squeeze you in to sample some mouth-watering traditional tapas and of course some refreshing Clara!

Before we make our third stop we will head over the oldest part of the city, the Gothic Quarter, which boasts a labyrinth of winding narrow streets including some of the more interesting and beautiful plazas. Your expert guide will bring to life stories of these plazas including some secrets and legends.

To continue with our foodie tour we will stop at a family-run bodega where you will have two to three more tapas accompanied by the house sweet "Vermut" (the preferred apéritif for the locals).

An excellent evening spent with Adrian and his trainee Caroline. We spent a beautiful evening walking round Barcelona, learning about the history of the neighbours, buildings and the food and drink. Gave us the opportunity to try some new food and drink that we would have not tried otherwise, and eat and drink inside some authentic Spanish places. A very laid back evening, and we were lucky to have a really small group. Would definitely recommend

We were lucky to have our own personal tour guide Adrian! He took us to several local haunts and exposed us to traditional tapas early on in our trip. He had a wealth of knowledge on food and wine. We booked his “sister” tour in Madrid as well. Great way to go deep into uniques places in a city in an intimate way. Thanks Adrian! Beth and Kevin Skinner

My daughter had this tour scheduled for months. It was confirmed in March then less than a week before the owner messaged her to tell her that he was going out of town and that we needed to reschedule. Our itinerary doesn’t allow us to do the tour on any other day and when she told him that, he told her to cancel the tour instead of cancelling it from the company’s end. Trip advisor’s rules and regulations specifically state “if the owner needs to cancel your booking, they should do so themselves via our platform.” Very unprofessional, and regardless of how good the tour is, I wouldn’t recommend this company to anybody based on his business practices.

An enjoyable evening tour. We learnt a lot. Tour turned into a private tour and Adrian was such a great host.
