Wonderful excursion! Andrew met us right on time. We visited restaurants that were all ready for us, with the table set and wine and water ready to pour. There was such delicious food! Andrew told us interesting history of the Gothic area as we strolled to different restaurants, which made this tour a delight! Highly recommended!

Wow, great tour with plenty to eat and drink. The places we visited we all unique and exceptional. We took the early tour (4:00pm) as we were just off the plane at 1:00. This was a perfect way to begin our trip. Kiki couldn’t have been nicer and she showed an exceptional knowledge and love of the city and country. We highly recommend this experience.

Can’t go wrong with this value

Best tapas tour with a nice touch of custom creation of sangria. First time in Barcelona and we were thoroughly impressed

Loved this!

JODI_K, Apr 2026
Our tour guide Kiki was fantastic. She was engaging and informative, about both our tour and other activities we might enjoy. The food and wines were superlative, and we had more than enough to enjoy - but I didn’t feel like we were wasting food. We joined a group of eight others so it was the perfect sizing and we were able to walk a bit between some of the venues so that helped with digestion. It was easy to navigate. I could not recommend it more.

Fantastic Tour!

Rachel_D, Apr 2026
Siobhan was absolutely brilliant - lots of interesting facts and history throughout and she was so patient with us (especially as the alcohol flowed). There were 5 stops and each stop had plenty of wine and food for the group. We did not need to eat again after! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Thank you

Salvatore for the win.

Michael_S, Apr 2026
Salvatore was an excellent host. Very passionate about Barcelona and the food it produces. He provided a wonderful introduction to local places that use only local sources for their food and wines. He was very knowledgeable and informative. He provided insights and locations into several famous artists as well.

Excellent tour!!

Myrna_V, Apr 2026

Fantastic Tapas and Wine

Jennifer_G, Apr 2026
This tour with Miguel our guide was the highlight of our Barcelona stay! He was knowledgeable and friendly during the entire tour. The tapas and wine was wonderful and would recommend this tour with Miguel to everyone

Best food/drink tour ever!!

cynthia_w, Apr 2026
Exceptional tour. Would give it 10 stars if I could. Miguel our guide was incredible and so fun to be with. He was informative but gave the guests time to visit and get to know one another. The other guests in our tour were diverse but so very fun! Now to the food/tapas. Absolutely amazing. We were actually so full at the end ( rare). Lovey portions. Now, the drinks.. also very good. We tried vermouth, wines and made sangria( which was very good), secret ingredient! Overall one of the best tours I have ever been in!! Highly recommend!! Staff at the meeting point bar were also wonderful and welcoming!

A fun night out!

Janice_Y, Apr 2026
A great way to try local drinks with a local hosts and people with similar mindsets. We had a group from all over the UK, the EU, South Africa and Nortj America.

Kiki the Mayor of Food Tours!

Kimberly_B, Apr 2026
Our walking food tour in Barcelona with Kiki was easily one of the highlights of our trip. She created such a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere within our small and diverse group, which made the experience feel really special from the start. Because of the intimate group size, we even got to enjoy what felt like a private chef’s table and cooking school experience—an unexpected and memorable bonus. Kiki’s knowledge of European food and culture was incredible, and she shared it in a way that was both engaging and fun. She also seemed to know everyone in Barcelona—at one point we jokingly referred to herself as “the mayor”—which added a playful, personal touch to the tour. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the city!

A blast!

mm4peace, Apr 2026
This tapas tour was fun and exciting. The other tourists in our group were very friendly snd enjoyed the experience. our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and hands on at the various establishments we visited. He explained how the wines went with the food as well as the origin and history behind some of the dishes. We even made sangria together. Highly recommend. Will do a tapas tour if I venture to Barcelona again.

Amazing tour

Amy_A, Apr 2026

This was a fantastic tour! The food was AMAZING; Andrew was terrific, patient, organized, and super energetic! Let’s all agree that we are not going to starve in Barcelona, but we tasted many drinks and foods that I’ve never heard of, so check this tour out for yourself.

Excellent food and drink tour of Barcelona

Mary_F, Apr 2026
Excellent food and drink tour. Several really nice places with good food and drink. Started with a Spanish vermouth and ended with amazing our own Barcelona style sangria. Each stop had great foods with many nice tapas and pintxis ( pinchos). Everything was delicious and explored new foods and drinks we wouldn’t find on our own. The guide was great. Would do it again next time we are in Barcelona.

Great Tour!

Brian_C, Apr 2026
This tour was great-- lots of good food, good drinks and very knowledgeable guide that took us places the average person will never find! This is a must do...

Fantastic Tapas tour

Judith_V, Mar 2026
Food and drinks were "outstanding" in all 4 places! The food was prepared in advance and some food was cooked in front of us. This tour was very well planned. Francisco was personable AND knowledgeable. We learned many things and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience.

Amazing experience with wine and tapas in the Gothic District.

Arthi_R, Mar 2026
We had an amazing experience with this Wine and Tapas tour in the Gotico District in Barcelona. Our guide, Shiobhan, was so knowledgeable, friendly, and took us to such different spots across the four locations. We learned a lot, tasted amazing, freshly made tapas, and tried a variety of drinks (vermouth, wine, sangria). I highly recommend this experience for a small or larger group. We got lucky and it was just me and my colleague, so the tour was extra personalized, which also helped us get to know our guide, learn about her experiences in Barcelona and even more about local culture.

Looking for a fun way to start your Barcelona visit . . .

Joy_K, Mar 2026
Yume (?) very knowledgeable, lots of historical facts. Four stops on the tour where were were able to enjoy lots of local favorites. Would definitely recommend as something to do when in Barcelona. Definitely got our monies worth on this tour!

Tour guide could care less

Alex_s, Mar 2026
This tour is a joke. The tour guide was late. He gave us 1 minute of explanation what vermouth was. Dropped some tapas and then starts bartending and serving people on the restaurant. We were left sitting there to our own devices for 30 minutes.

History, wine, & tapas

Samantha_M, Mar 2026
This was a nice experience as a solo traveler. We stopped at 4 restaurants throughout the Gothic Quarter, passing through Plaza Royale, and ending port-side. I decided to join the 12:30 tour spur of the moment and enjoyed the small group I was with. Miguel was a friendly guide. We heard a lot of history of the area, saw Gaudi’s first installation in Barcelona, and learned about Picso’s life in the district. Definitely recommend the tour!

Wonderful way to spend an eveing.

Ronald_A, Mar 2026
What a wonderful way ro spend the evening. A true tapas experience. Our guide was more than knowledgeable about tapas and history.

Fun Foodie Tour

Donna_T, Mar 2026
A fun evening experience! We learned a lot about the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona along with fantastic food and wine. We even had the chance to make our own Sangria! Santiago was very knowledgeable and engaging!

Best Sangria

Joel_B, Mar 2026
