Taste of Barcelona Food Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Great tastings of various tapas, sweets and drinks. Our guide, Adrian, was also very knowledgeable about the different sections of old town Barcelona. Part of our group was delayed and instead of cancelling us or making us switch to another time or date, Adrian gave my husband and I a private tour. He was worth his weight in gold! Highly recommend this tour!

Definitely recommend

Adrien was very knowledgeable and entertaining throughout the whole tour. More tasting options than we expected, we were definitely full by the end of the tour. Not small portions. Whole family had a great experience

Delicious First Day in Barcelona

Published on May, 2024

Our family of 4 (including 2 teenagers) took this tour our first day in Barcelona and it was a great introduction to the city and food we’d be enjoying the rest of our stay. Adrian was an entertaining and informative tour guide. Come with an empty stomach because you will be enjoying several stops with delicious food. Adrian also provided us with recommendations for activities and restaurants we enjoyed the rest of our time in Barcelona. Highly recommend!

Yummy and informative!!
