Gracia, Tapas, and Gaudí: Barcelona Food & History Tour
Overview
Barcelona is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in Spain, but places like Gracia still exist. This neighborhood, just a stone's throw from the bustling center, feels a world away. That's because it used to be its own village and has held onto those roots even more than a century after being swallowed up by Barcelona’s urban sprawl. Experience hole-in-the-wall gems serving up home-cooked classics, regulars-only bodegas, bustling markets, and see some of Gaudí's masterpieces along the way. You can't do any better than Gracia—and on this food and history tour, we’ll show you where to find the best of the best.
What's Included
- Enjoy 12+ Catalan foods and 3 drinks at 6 small businesses in Barcelona’s Gracia neighborhood. Enough food for breakfast and lunch.
- Visit family-run businesses that have been part of Gracia for generations and meet the characters behind the counter.
- Wander through a vibrant local market and enjoy cava with a typical tapa.
- Get away from the crowds and step into everyday life in a historic Barcelona neighborhood with the charm of a small town.
- See Gaudí’s colorful Casa Vicens, admire the exterior of Casa Milà, and other Modernist marvels.
Gracia Neighborhood Food Tour Itinerary
Just north of Eixample, a charming Catalan neighborhood is hiding in plain sight. A straight shot on the metro will get you there from central Barcelona before you know it, but you'll feel like you've stepped back in time. After meeting your guide and small group right in front of a true local icon—Gaudi’s Casa Vicens—you'll embark on a morning of discovering true Catalan culture in the best possible way: through its food and art!
