So Glad We Did This One. - I agree with the other glowing reviews — a fantastic experience! Our wonderful guide Nika was warm, knowledgeable, knew people everywhere and made it feel like we were experiencing Barcelona with a friend. We started at the historic Santa Caterina Market near the old city, tasting our way through Iberico hams, cheeses, olives and Cava accompanied by “second breakfast” tapas. Making our way through the gothic area, we stopped for baked goods and sweets, all the while learning about this storied neighborhood. Next it was off to the “Barcelletto” neighborhood on the waterfront where we stopped for “Bombas” tapas and a delightful vermouth aperitif, then the finale of wonderful seafood paella washed down with a delicious Catalonian white wine.

10/10 - We tried a little bit of everything, from hams and cheeses to bombas. From croissants to paellas, and everything in between. Jordi was very knowledgeable, and the stroll through the city was very nice. Would definitely recommend this tour!
