Excellent

This was the best food tour I’ve ever taken! Our guide who was very knowledgeable on the history of the city, took his time to show and explain many of the places we walked by on the way to the four restaurants we visited. The food and drink choices were very authentic to Barcelona and the Catalan area. Thanks Hector for a great tour of your beautiful city.

Wonderful way to start a vacation in a new city. The tour was well organized and our guide, Eric was so pleasant! He was full of all the basic info you need to get an idea of the sites visited. Great way to figure out where you might want to go back to. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our Tapas and Taverns tour in Barcelona. Thank you Eric. You're the best!

Fantastic tour that included food, wine, history and culture. We couldn’t have had a better introduction to Barcelona on the first day of our stay. Our guide Celeste was so knowledgeable and the wine and food on the tour was amazing.
