Barcelona doesn't give up its best food quietly. You have to find it down a side street, through a low doorway, or at a bar that's been there so long the regulars don't bother with menus.
On this small group tour, we trace the culinary soul of the city through three of its most storied neighborhoods: the Gothic Quarter, El Born, and Barceloneta. Five stops, six tastings, three drinks, each one chosen for its character, its history, and its flavour. You'll drink wine the way Catalans do, eat street food that predates the tourist trade by centuries, and finish with a waterfront dish that the fishermen's quarter has been claiming as its own for generations.
Along the way, expect a medieval church built by bare hands, a street named for its dyers and tanners, a war memorial that explains why the Catalans wear red, and much more! Groups stay small - 12 guests at most.
- Discover Catalan food culture in an intimate small group setting
- Explore medieval streets, a gothic church & waterfront history
- Finish steps from the sea with a dish born on the Barcelona shore
- Sample 6 tastings across 5 stops in Gothic, El Born & Barceloneta
- Sip regional wines and cocktails poured the old-fashioned way
