Marvel at the recently refurbished Sant Antoni Market, a beautiful food and flea market with origins that date back to Roman times.

Sip an array of fine Spanish wines, tuck into tasty tapas, and try regional specialties.

After this comprehensive introduction to Spanish regional cuisines and wines, your tour ends in the Sant Antoni district, a food and wine hotspot of the city.

When I travel, the food has to be an authentic experience and it is hard to research where the locals go. I loved this tour for many reasons. First, Niko, the guide was super informative, charismatic, and knowledgable. I learned so much about Barcelona in general but definitely about Spanish wine and food. Second, I loved Poble Sec and Sant Antoni neighborhoods. It was a great change of pace from Gothic, El Born, Las Ramblas. These were two great neighborhoods that were not touristy very relaxed. Third, the food and wine pairings were perfect. A food tour where I literally couldn’t eat another bite. I was very full by the end and tried ALL the local dishes like Pinchos, as an example and the wine pairings were not just a sip. I loved this tour and recommend to anyone who is looking for an authentic, local experience. Thank you, Niko for a great memory!

Great food and wine
Ronnie_L, May 2024
Great experience overall, food and wine A+ Our host was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job!
Amazing food and wine
Kaitlyn_H, May 2024
Such a fun night! Our sommelier Romano was amazing. Romano made great food and wine pairings at each restaurant and helped explain region & taste profile of each wine. I certainly feel like I left this tour with more knowledge on wines but also some new friends. The small group format was very nice to get to know other travelers and try interesting restaurants off the tourist path. Romano did a great job catering to a variety of palates in our group, and adjusted wine selections throughout the evening to best suit each person. Romano clearly knows his wine and is passionate about good food. This tour was an absolute pleasure. Highly recommend.
Response from Host, May 2024
Thank you immensely for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a fun night with Romano on our tour. It's wonderful to know that Romano's expertise in food and wine pairings, as well as his explanations about regions and taste profiles, added to your enjoyment and knowledge. We're delighted that you not only left with more knowledge about wines but also with new friends. Our small group format aims to foster these connections, and we're glad you found it enjoyable. Romano will be pleased to hear your kind words about his catering to different palates and adjusting wine selections throughout the evening. His passion for good food and wine shines through, and we're grateful for your recommendation!
Wine, food, and history
richard_p, May 2024
Our tour guide was very kind but did not have the experience needed to give this tour. There was plenty of food and wine to consume. The quality of some of the tapas served was mediocre. The cheese, tuna, and spinach dishes were excellent. Going to a ham shop and not getting ham seemed odd.

Wonderful Intro to the Gothic Quarter and Spanish food/wines!!
Ariya_S, Apr 2024
Our small group of three was lucky enough to get our tour guide/sommeliere, Moa, completely to ourselves for our walking tour on our first day in Barcelona. She was extremely knowledgeable about the many different types of Spanish wines we tried and wasn't shy about her pours. She introduced us to many different tapas dishes and even arranged for us to have some Vermut at one of our stops when my brother mentioned he was curious to try it. Our tour took us on a lovely little exploration of the Gothic Quarter. I highly recommend this experience!

Had a fantastic time trying wines and eating at various local restaurants with our tour guide Romano. He was clearly well versed in everything wine and provided an extensive background of Spanish wines which I really enjoyed. As wine novices he still made us feel very welcomed and provided a lot of useful tips for us. Additionally he purposely picked local restaurants that had exceptional quality without the tourist crowds. Highly highly recommend!

Julia_S, Mar 2024
Lovely early evening walking tour with Romano, the sommelier. He was a great guide - very patient with all my questions, and clearly a wine expert. We sampled five different wines and varied local tapas in four different restaurants. Definitely no need to have dinner afterwards - we were stuffed ! Great start to our Barcelona weekend.

Chris_G, Mar 2024
Absolutely incredible experience. Our guide, Moa, was far more than a guide. It was like having dinner with an old friend. Each restaurant the conversation was better and the food was even more immersive. I cannot say enough good things. She gave us the recommendations we needed for the rest of our trip. If you are considering this tour, book it at the start of your trip!! We built our plans based the real recommendations we needed. No tourist traps. Just good and real food. Ask for Moa. You will have an amazing time!

We're delighted that you found the advice valuable in avoiding tourist traps and savoring real, good food. Your suggestion to book the tour at the start of the trip for foundational recommendations is a great tip for future travelers. We're grateful you chose our tour and had such an amazing time with Moa. We'll be sure to share your praise with her, and we look forward to the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. Thank you!

This was a fun trip and a little different to ones we have done before. Our guide was lovely and friendly, although on their phone more than I would have expected. I loved 3 of the places we visited, the 4th was very friendly. Good tapas and some nice wines to try.

We ended up having our tour guide to ourselves, so it was like having a private sommelier! Romano was knowledgeable, personable, and a delight. This is a great way to tour Sant Antoni, try some representative regional wines and a few tapas from non-touristy restaurants. What a great way to start our Barcelona trip! 10/10 recommend.

I'm so glad to hear that you had a wonderful time exploring Sant Antoni. Having Romano as your private guide sounds like a truly enriching experience.
