Excellent
The spaces you eat at are very small and can get very warm, so dress accordingly. Guide provides equal amounts of local history along the walk before going to three stops.

Araina was a fabulous tour guide! She shared a lot of history with us about Barcelona, Catalonia, and the foods we were eating. Her passion for her job came through. She cultivated a very friendly, interactive tour, and I feel that I made nine new friends in a few hours. We had a great time!

We had a Wonderful experience but lots of walking on uneven stones. The overview said 4+ drinks, we had 4. James, our guide did a great job at combining food, drink & history.

Me and my husband met another couple and then a single man and was a very small group, but we all got along. We had great conversations the three locations that our guide picked out for us was a very good with a little bit of history tour.

Erik was an engaging & knowledgable guide. He related the history of the Gothic Quarters in a compelling way. Each venue for tapas & wine tastings was unique. Erik offered cultural & regional insights as we indulged. A “best” excursion.

Know Before You Go

Is this tour accessible for people with mobility issues?
Unfortunately due to the nature of this tour it is not suitable for guests with mobility impairments, or for wheelchairs or strollers.
Is this the best tapas tour in Barcelona?
We think so—and so do the 3,000+ guests who’ve rated it five stars. This is Devour’s signature Barcelona experience, running since 2014. It’s not just about great food (though there’s plenty of that)—it’s about understanding the stories behind every bite and every bar.
How much food and drink is included?
Plenty! You’ll enjoy 10+ traditional tapas and 5 drinks (including vermouth, cava, and regional wines) across three family-run stops. It’s a full dinner, Barcelona-style. Come hungry.
What kind of tapas will I try?
The lineup varies with the seasons and availability, but expect a mix of Catalan and Spanish staples—things like *butifarra* sausage, crema catalana, fried fish, croquettes, and more. Every dish is carefully chosen to reflect local traditions and flavors.
How much walking is involved?
The route covers approximately 1.5 km (1 mile) through the Gothic Quarter at a relaxed pace, with plenty of time to rest and eat between stops.
What if I don’t drink alcohol?
No problem! We offer non-alcoholic options at every stop. Just let us know when booking or tell your guide at the start of the tour.
Is this a good tour for history lovers?
Yes! This isn’t just a food tour—it’s also a walking tour through one of Barcelona’s oldest neighborhoods. Your guide will share the stories that connect what you’re eating to the city’s layered past.
Is this a good tour for solo travelers?
Absolutely. Many guests come solo and end up leaving with new friends. The vibe is relaxed, social, and perfect for anyone who wants to explore, connect, and share a great meal.
Are dietary restrictions accommodated?
We do our best! Many stops offer vegetarian options, but please note that vegan, gluten-free, or severe allergy accommodations may be limited. Let us know your needs in advance and we’ll do our best to help.
What if it rains?
We run rain or shine, so bring an umbrella if the forecast looks wet. Most of the tour is indoors or under cover, and the food will keep you warm either way.
