Discover the History and Tastes of Barcelona

Join us for an enticing blend of Spanish flavors and Barcelona's rich history! This tour unravels the city's story from ancient Roman times to its medieval splendor, all while exploring narrow alleys, vibrant squares, and delectable stops featuring a wide array of tapas.

Start at the heart of Roman Barcelona, with a historic walk into the Gothic Quarter where you'll be enveloped in the city's vibrant past. Stroll through narrow back alleys and historic squares to a traditional pinchos bar offering flavorful snacks nestled atop bread slices, a nod to Spain's northern Basque Country and a true delight for the palate.

Venture through El Born, an enclave steeped in medieval allure, revealing tales of craftsmen and affluent merchants whose legacies echo through palaces and the awe-inspiring Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar. Here, our next tapas rendezvous awaits at a well-known tapas haven where you can sink your teeth into high-quality, elaborately-prepared tapas, carefully crafted from the region's fields and farms.

Continuing our jaunt through El Born's enchanting alleys, we seamlessly weave in the historic threads of the independence movement, a vibrant and influential part of Catalonia's identity, into your experience.

Your tour concludes with a sweet finale - a visit to our final stop for churros con chocolate, a traditional Spanish dessert. Don't miss this chance to immerse yourself in the heart, history, and flavors of Barcelona.
