"We had a lovely and welcoming guide and the food was sooooo good.... amazing versions of the well known Spanish food and dishes which were a little bit different and equally as delicious. A must-do recommendation"

"Our evening was fantastic! The Gothic Quarter tour is for anyone who wants good food, good drinks, and good company. Tito, our guide, was amazing. His knowledge of the food and Barcelona were outstanding. It’s definitely a must while in Barcelona!"

"If I could give more than 5 stars I would. The places we visited were non touristy, traditional and perfect. Each group of tapas was preceded by a traditional drink. The food was amazing and thoroughly explained."

"Can’t begin to tell you what a wonderful evening we had... It was an adventure in food we would never have taken on our own. Not only was the food experience fabulous, we learned so much about the culture."

The Barcelona Taste: because it's delicious

Barcelona is a major tourist destination – the number of guidebooks and websites devoted to the city is overwhelming! Which is why we started The Barcelona Taste ... to let you experience all the great food Barcelona has to offer while side-stepping the crowds.

We take you to restaurants and shops on our scrumptious tours because they’re great. We visit, we taste and then we visit again and taste again. Ad infinitum! That’s our research.

We strike no deals and ask for no discounts or commissions. This is how it must be done, with 100% respect for small, local business and delicious, quality food.
