I had a fantastic food tour with Alex. We went to a lot of places that I would not have found on my own. Authentic family run places. There was market food, bar/cafe food (la bomba!) and a beautiful seafood paella to finish in Barceloneta. Washed down with Cava. Whilst moving between venues he explained about the food, history and culture. I highly recommend this tour if you want a little off the beaten track. I really hope you do. It's worth it.

This was relaxed and engaging. Dominic was our guide, and in low season it was us and one other couple. The great thing is the tour combines historic locations with local food. Dom is experienced with and has practical knowledge about Barcelona. He has a great sense of humor and can customize the experience to the group’s interests. We felt ourselves warming to Barcelona on this tour and went on to have a really great week there. Highly recommended!

This tour explores El Born and Barceloneta—two of Barcelona’s most historic and atmospheric areas. Expect cobblestone streets, local markets, and seaside charm.
Is this tour suitable for kids?
Yes! Families are welcome, and the tour includes tastes and stories kids often love. Please let us know in advance about any dietary needs or preferences.
What makes this different from other food tours in Barcelona?
We don’t just feed you—we connect you. With over a decade of experience and deep local ties, we take you into real neighborhood bars, market stalls, and family-run spots tourists rarely find. It’s culture through food, done right.

More than enough—it covers both breakfast and lunch for the morning tour and dinner for the evening tour, with 13+ tastings. Come hungry!
What if I have dietary restrictions?
We do our best to accommodate most needs with advance notice. Let us know when booking so we can plan ahead.
How much walking is involved?
The route covers approximately 1.5 km (1 mile) through the Gothic Quarter at a relaxed pace, with plenty of time to rest and eat between stops.
Is alcohol included?
Yes! You’ll enjoy vermouth and wine along the way. Non-alcoholic alternatives are always available—just ask your guide.
Do you visit La Boqueria Market?
Nope. We take you to Santa Caterina, where real locals shop—and where we’ve built relationships with the vendors over years.
Will I be in a large group?
Nope—our tours are capped at 12 people so you’ll have access to smaller spots and a deeper connection with your guide.
