1.Barcelona Tapas and Wine Experience Small-Group Walking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5,804 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $83Our pick

Walk from Plaça Sant Jaume through the Gothic Quarter and El Born, stopping at four restaurants for tapas, Catalan dishes, and a glass of local wine at each stop. Guides such as Dasha, Felipe, Berta, Miro, and Paulina add history, food knowledge, and useful Barcelona tips. Choose a midday or evening departure, with an optional flamenco show.

“This was one of the most memorable tours that I have done on any of the trips that I have taken by land, by sea, and by river! Our tour guide, Berta, was absolutely amazing! Her knowledge of the history of Barcelona, navigating the streets of the Old City, taking us to the various locations for the tapas and beverages, cannot compare to any other experiences I’ve had on group tours. Those in our tour group would most certainly share how personable, knowledgeable, professional, and caring Berta was. On a scale of 1 to 10 this was a 20!!! What a fantastic experience to have had during my first trip…”

He did a great job explaining what the day would be. He asked anyone about coffee breaks, toilet breaks and water breaks in between the tour. It was easy walk of the city. He made sure everyone is safe crossing streets and paths. Learned a lot about Spain history. Would recommend”

11.Barcelona Tapas Walking Tour: Food, Wine & History

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,928 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $66

Spend about three hours with a local guide in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, stopping at four food and drink venues for tapas, wine, vermouth, sangria, and cava. Guides such as Santiago, Lila, Ewan, and Juan Carlos have led this route, which suits adults, families, and solo visitors who want an easy social evening near La Rambla.

“Prompt meet-up, some repetition in the dishes though between stops especially regarding bread. The paella stop was excellent and a good sit-down experience with plenty of time allocated to mingle with other guests. The guide was knowledgeable about Catalonia and some of the food traditions, but didn’t maximize the foodie aspect—we went to a private kitchen, but she barely introduced the chef, and there was little commentary provided while he was cooking. It seemed the chef and guide instead used the time to catch up with each other (in Spanish of course), and we were left to our own devices after each course was served. The food on that stop…”
