We had an incredible Tapas & Wine Pairing Tour in Barcelona with our knowledgeable and passionate guide, Erik. He shared fascinating history, introduced us to excellent wines, and took us to some fantastic venues throughout the city. The tour was well organized, engaging, and a lot of fun from start to finish. We also had a great group of fellow attendees, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough—an absolute highlight of our time in Barcelona!

Know before you book

Is this tour private?
Yes — it's just your family and your guide. That means everything moves at your pace, the stories and games match your kids' ages, and nobody has to wait for anyone else. It's the difference between your kids being part of the experience and your kids just being along for the ride.
Why choose a private tapas tour in Barcelona?
Because it’s the only way to avoid the tourist traps and taste the best of Barcelona like a local—on your own schedule, at your own pace, with a guide who knows the real stories behind what’s on your plate.
What makes this different from other private tours in Barcelona?
This tour is all about context. You'll eat incredible food, but you'll also walk away understanding the flavors, history, and neighborhoods that make Barcelona such a vibrant, unforgettable place.
How much food is included?
Plenty! This tour includes enough tapas to replace a full meal, with optional drinks along the way.
Are tapas free in Barcelona?
No—unlike some cities in Spain, Barcelona’s tapas are ordered and paid for, just like any other dish. But on this tour, we take care of everything. You just sit back and enjoy.
What are the most popular tapas in Barcelona?
Some of the can’t-miss dishes include pan con tomate, jamón ibérico, padrón peppers, and seasonal seafood. But part of the fun of this tour is tasting what’s best right now.
What is the cancellation policy for private food tours?
Private food tours may be cancelled and refunded up to 7 days before the tour date. Thank you for understanding.
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.
