We really enjoyed our tour with James!! The history he shared was fascinating, the tapas and drinks were delicious, and we saw parts of the Gothic Quarter we wouldn’t have found on our own. A really well-done experience.

A perfect start to my trip in Barcelona. Right balance of food, wine and conversation with a little bit about the history of the gothic quarter thrown in. Eric made you feel welcome and had great knowledge about Barcelona. Never a dull moment the tour made me feel less intimidated to go it alone. Fully recommended to all

Feliciano was an amazing guide. Great energy, fun conversation, and company. The history was intriguing and engaging. The food was amazing and he took you to some very small local spots you likely wouldn’t walk past and even know they served food. But let me tell you these spots were worth every bite. Simple, local, and delicious. At the end Feliciano gave us some great recommendations for bars and other restaurants to try on our visit which we will be taking advantage of. Can’t recommend this tour enough.

Can I customize the route or food stops on a private tour?
Our routes and tastings are thoughtfully planned in advance. Each stop has been chosen for its craft, character, and place in the neighborhood’s daily life. Keeping the route intact allows the experience to unfold smoothly without rushing or waiting. That way you can simply arrive and enjoy a table, seat, or bite waiting just for you. While the route itself stays the same, the rhythm is yours. Your guide adjusts the pace to suit your group.
