Our tours are built around independent restaurants, local bodegas, market stalls and neighbourhood businesses that form part of Barcelona's everyday food culture.
Rather than moving through a long list of tourist attractions, each experience focuses on one part of the city and gives you time to understand what people eat, where they eat it and how food connects with Catalan history and daily life.
Choose the Tapas & Wine Tour if this is your first visit to Barcelona and you want tapas, Catalan wine, bodegas and the historic streets of El Born and the Gothic Quarter.
Choose Sant Antoni Market & Fork Breakfast if food itself is one of the main reasons you travel and you want to discover a traditional Catalan breakfast and everyday market culture.
Choose Gràcia Craft Beer & Castellers if you've already seen Barcelona's classic sights or want a more cultural neighbourhood experience combining food, craft beer and a Catalan tradition.
Travelling as a family, private group or looking for something designed around your own interests and schedule? We also create private and tailored food experiences in Barcelona and Catalonia.
Explore Private Food ToursOur small-group Barcelona food tours are priced per person and include the food and drink tastings specified for each experience — tapas, wine, market products or a Catalan fork breakfast depending on the tour. Check each tour's booking page for current pricing, dates and availability.
For many first-time visitors, yes. A food tour gives you local context, several organised stops and an introduction to Barcelona's neighbourhood food culture that you can use during the rest of your trip. Read our complete guide to whether a Barcelona food tour is worth it .
For a first visit, our Tapas & Wine Tour through El Born and the Gothic Quarter is the most classic choice. Sant Antoni goes deeper into everyday Catalan food culture, while Gràcia combines craft beer with a live Castellers rehearsal.
Our Barcelona food tours usually last between 2.5 and 3 hours, depending on the experience.
We can adapt many parts of our experiences for vegetarians and for many dietary restrictions with advance notice. Tell us about your requirements when booking so we can confirm what is possible for your chosen tour.
Booking in advance is recommended, particularly during busy travel periods. The Gràcia Craft Beer & Castellers Experience has additional availability limitations because it depends on the Castellers rehearsal calendar.
Our regular Barcelona food tours are small-group experiences capped at 10 guests. We also create private and tailored food tours in Barcelona for families, groups, corporate trips and private experiences.
