Best food tour we’ve ever had!

Liz_T, Sep 2026

We’ve done food tours in cities all over the world, and our private tour with Miguel in Barcelona was truly the best food tour we’ve ever had! What made it so special was how personalized the entire experience was. Miguel took the time to learn what we liked and was able to customize each stop based on our tastes and interests. He took us to true local hidden gems—places we never would have found on our own—and every stop felt authentic and thoughtfully chosen. Miguel is incredibly personable, fun, and easy to spend time with. It honestly felt less like being on a tour and more like exploring Barcelona with a local friend who happens to know all the best places to eat. His genuine love for Barcelona, Spain, its food, culture, and people comes through in everything he does. If you’re visiting Barcelona, I can’t recommend Miguel highly enough. Definitely book a private, customized tour if you can. It was one of the highlights of our time in Barcelona and an experience we’ll remember for a long time!

Fantastic food and great company

Miguel was a fantastic guide. He gave us a history lesson as we walked which was much appreciated. The food was fantastic especially the tapas. Ending by the sea was a very nice surprise. Have recommended several people to take the tour.
