What to expect

  1. La Barceloneta
    50m · Admission ticket included
    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!
  2. El Born
    50m · Admission ticket included
    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!
  3. Gothic Quarter
    1h · Admission ticket included
    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).
  4. Gothic Quarter
    50m · Admission ticket included
    A family-run Catalan tavern will be our last stop. At this point on your wine, food & history tour, we will have a fun surprise for you (trust me when I say you will enjoy it immensely). Hint: it involves wine and, of course, incredible food!
