Barcelona 3-Hour Food & Wine Walking Tour

About this experience

There's tapas. And then there's tapas. If you are new to the city, finding the REAL thing can be hard.

Our Tapas Tour takes you to venues specially selected for their authenticity, their history and the quality of their tapas. It is as much about ambience as it is about anchovies, as the spirit of Barcelona resides in these humble tapas bars.

Starting in a cozy local wine bar, we stop for a traditional aperetivo, then onto some classic, rustic eateries as well as a more creative and contemporary hang out. On our Tapas Tour, you will experience what its really like to eat and drink like a local in Barcelona.

The tour is for people with a genuine interest in food and an open mind when it comes to new flavours and ideas. Your guide is a local who will tell you about the history of the restaurant, the area and the origin of the dishes you’re eating. There will be a maximum of 6 people on the tour, an intimate group, so it’s like going on a tapas crawl with a bunch of amigos.
