Great tour!
Suzanne_H, 11-09-2022
Tour was great, food was great, company was great. This was our first ever food tour, so we weren’t really sure what to expect. By the end we all had full bellies and quite a few laughs with new friends. We are history buffs, and learning about the city was very enjoyable. We would highly recommend this tour and our guide, Adrian.
Great!

we loved having Adrian as our guide! He was so knowledgeable and friendly. We stopped at four different local spots to try wines and small plates (all delicious). Highly recommend especially as an intro to Barcelona.
More than Tapas - A bite of History Too
Nancysch101, 07-08-2022
Adrian was an excellent guide sharing both history and food lore during our Tapas tour. We had a wonderful time sampling different tapas from ham, cheese and Sangria to patas bravas and fried anchovies. Each restaurant had its charm and Adrian taught us about Catalyan culture. I highly recommend this tour - it was perfect for our family with older teenagers.
great way to start your trip

A nice mix of history and tapas. Our guide was very knowledgeable and the locations authentic. The group was a nice size, not too big.
Loved it!
