Itinerary and highlights

Barcelona is famous all over the world for its unique and vibrant nightlife with a variety of nightlife - from tapas bars to venues with live music and atmospheric clubs.
Visit the best pubs, bars and clubs of the city as part of a 2-hour private tour.

The tour starts at a bar in central Barcelona, where you will be offered a welcome drink. Meet locals and other travelers from Barcelona hostels. Then visit 3 tapas bars for even more free drinks and great music.

You will meet your private guide here outside Hotel Suizo at Jaume 1 station and start your night adventure at the best bars and pubs of Barcelona.
Barcelona is the hottest city in Spain, a city where everything is possible, from strolling through beautiful ancient sites to crazy nightlife, where the lights of bars and clubs turn bright as day. You will start from Plaça de Sant Jaume and go to Tasca El Corral.

A classic Spanish tavern with jamon legs hanging from the ceiling, wooden tables with benches and delicious traditional tapas. This establishment smells of blue cheese, which adds up to the local authentic atmosphere.
Try a local favorite: vermut, freshly brewed by the tavern

Tasca el Corral is a special place. It is owned by a family that is originally from Asturias, it is the northern part of Spain. In this tavern you will be taught how to drink cider correctly, pouring it in the traditional way, so that the drink is enriched with oxygen. If you do not like cider, order sangria, it is perfect here.

To accompany the alcohol, we recommend ordering several tapas. Here is a wonderful beef ham "cecina", "pan con tomate" - slices of bread, grated with tomato, cabrales cheese. However, mind that it is a very strong cheese with mold. If mold is not to your liking, try something more classic, the deliciously aged manchego cheese.

Next you stop will be at Bar Marsella. One of the most entourage bars in Barcelona, opened in 1820, is called Marsella. Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso and Federico Garcia Lorca loved to visit this place and get some absinthe. Look around and soak in the atmosphere.

Marble round tables, antique mirrors, walls covered with a yellow coating due to tobacco smoke, dusty bottles, dim light of Victorian chandeliers - all this is Marseille, one of the oldest bars in Barcelona, where night revelers come to drink absinthe.
Every night, the legendary institution is filled with the most diverse audience: students from all over the world, tourists, representatives of the Barcelona bohemia and adventure lovers.

And the last stop is Chulapio Cocktails & Crepes. Truly it is a gem place with an amazingly simple menu. Everything is exceptionally well done and the service is genuine, friendly and discreet.
Friendly staff, delicious cocktails and great prices. Taste a typical Catalan sangria.

This tour is ideal for couples and friends.

In Barcelona, there are places of entertainment for every taste and budget. Your personal guide will tell you in detail about cult clubs, their creation, owners, interesting events and the average check of establishments, and you decide where you want after the tour. Along the way, the guide will share his observations of the locals - their fun daily routine, innate social equality and clubs, and how Barcelona affects visitors.

This is a lifetime experience cherished for many years to come.
