Join this food envy-inducing Barcelona tour for 3-hours of power eating, Spanish-style. Join locals as they indulge in the fine art of eating and drinking, something Spaniards are champions at. By the end of the tour, you will know your banderillas from your pintxo, even if you can't pronounce them.Meet your English-speaking guide in a central locationbefore setting off on a Barcelona food tour like no other. You will be taken away from the touristy spots and into local neighborhoods, like the once notorious Raval, which nowadays features a strong diversity of people who live there and aunique blend of ambitious new architectural projects. Just a stone’s throw away, you will enjoy the first tapas experience of the night at a cozy little terrace bar, where you can pick up a pintxo of butifarra or some salmorejo, two truly traditional and tasty dishes.
With your guide, navigate your way through a labyrinth of small streets that still retain their old-world ambience. Your next stop is a warm bodega with exquisite ham and cheese, and you’ll experience these tasty flavors accompanied by a nice white or red wine.
Next up is a typical Vermuteria, where you can have a vermut (vermouth) or tinto de verano (think sangría, but simpler) and indulge in a Spanish omelette.
On the way to the adjacent neighborhood of Poble Sec, you will cross Parallel, once known for its Montmartre-style entertainment, which is still cluttered with theaters, music venues, and cabarets. Poble Sec is attached to the Montjuic, Barcelona’s emblematic hillside. Still very central, it combines the charm of a lively neighborhood with an authentic local feel away from the main tourist trails.
Your next stop is a vibrant bodega, where you can choose your favorite Basque pintxo and top it all off with a glass of cava.
Throughout this Barcelona tour, as you delight in the discovery of new tastes, flavors and dishes, your guide will give you insights into local gastronomic specialties and anecdotes of the city's history and local neighborhood life. Eating tapas is one of the best things to do in Barcelona, and a great way to connect with the daily lives of the locals. At some point during this tour, you will likely meet some of the local characters in the barrio and perhaps even get drawn into a conversation or two. You never know what the night has in store.
