Itinerary and highlights

Discover authentic Barcelona through its most local flavours on a tour of family-run taverns, centuries-old wineries and traditional bars where tapas are still served as before. Sample homemade croquettes, Barceloneta pumps, bread with tomatoes, Priorat wines and artisan vermouth, while you learn the history of this tradition that was born in Andalusia and merged with Catalan culture.
During the walk through neighborhoods like Poble-sec, Gràcia or Sants, you will visit emblematic places like Quimet & Quimet or the Jose Masana Winery, true temples of flavor and authenticity. More than a gastronomic tour, it is a cultural experience that celebrates the history, food and daily life of Barcelona.
