Traveler reviews
Eat and learn your way through Barcelona
This was such a great experience and am so glad that we found this tour when we were planning our trip through Madrid and Barcelona. Our guide Olga was so so nice and had a lot of historical insights to share while we did our walking tour. This was the only tour we signed up for during our trip, so we learned a lot of really great context while walking and then got excellent things to eat at the food stops. The markets were really fun and we bought some things before leaving the second stop. Along the way we had pintxos, tapas, cava, and a lot more! The walk wasn't too long, plus we had stops as we made our way through the city. I definitely recommend this for anyone looking to eat and learn their way through the city.
Best Barcelona Guide!
Stephanie was a wealth of information! Kind, helpful, organized and fun! We learned more from her than any other guide from other tours. Very knowledgeable of the area and has a nice connection with the locals. Great history knowledge but not overwhelming. She wanted to be sure we had a good experience. She went out of her way to show us more than required. Great experience!!

Food and culture of Barcelona
My partner and I had a wonderful time on our food and culture tour with Montse! She is full of knowledge, polite, and fun. We had the chance to try food at different markets and learn about the city as we walked around. Having Montse’s insight was so helpful as she knew the best places to go. It was clear she has developed good relationships with the vendors. Her background in art and history were evident as she shared about Barcelona. Come hungry and with an open mind as there is plenty to eat and drink and a lot to learn! We definitely recommend this tour and it is even better if you end up with Montse as your guide.
