Great food and great time
We learned so much about history and culture on this tour and all the food stops were amazing! Sophia was a great guide and had so much knowledge. It felt like you were getting info from a person who was passionate about where she lived and wanted to share it with you. It was a great way to start our trip in Catalonia!
Martina was an excellent...
Martina was an excellent guide, leading us through markets and neighborhoods in Barcelona that we might never have discovered on our own. In addition to the delicious tastings, she pointed out notable landmarks and shared insights into the area’s history and culture. Her knowledge, enthusiasm, and friendly personality made the experience both educational and enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience Barcelona beyond the typical tourist attractions. One bit of advice - the meeting location was shown as “meet at Liceu, Barcelona; guide will be by “Mosaico di Miro” Joan Miro’s mosaic, just outside the Liceu metro station”. The metro station was easy enough to find, but we were looking for a mosaic on a wall, not imbedded in the ground. Look on the ground!
I thought this tour was...
I thought this tour was too heavy on sweets. I was more of a desert tour and mediocre on the savory side. Additionally, we didn’t learn much about the history or the culture of local cuisine. It was overall a disappointment.
Fabulous..
An amazing night, loved all the foods we tasted.. our host Maria was great.. explained all the different foods . Places we would not have found on our own !
