Overview

Explore the beautiful city of Barcelona while tantalising your taste buds. On this award-winning tour, we've pre-planned everything for you; enjoy the ease of reserved tables and priority service, as you sit back, relax, and savour the flavours of Spanish cuisine.

A local guide will take you on a culinary journey through two of Barcelona’s most iconic neighbourhoods, the Gothic Quarter and El Born, where you’ll try nine traditional and modern tapas. Think patatas bravas, pimientos, fried fish, paella, and dessert, expertly paired with drinks such as wine, cava, Spanish vermouth, or non-alcoholic beverages if preferred.

Along the way, you'll see important cultural sights from Roman ruins in the Gothic to the iconic Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar in Born.

Since tapas are meant to be shared, this tour is ideal for families, couples, and especially solo travellers who might not otherwise get the chance to try a variety of small plates. Book now, come hungry!
