The food tour allowed us to have the opportunity to try local foods. Dom did a great job explaining the history of Barcelona and each specialty. Will highly recommend this tour to all who are visiting Barcelona.

Excellent tour with our guide, Jordy. So much food in a short time so bring an appetite. Love the olives, cheese and meat tasting at the market but the croissant place was unbelievably good. Would have liked the tour to last another hour to include even more walking tour so that you could burn calories before eating more. By the time we got to the paella no one had an appetite. The seafood paella was my least favorite but still very good just not very much seafood. Jordy was the perfect guide
