Celebrate with some of Barcelona’s best food, drinks and entertainment during this combined 3-hour tapas crawl and flamenco show with a small group of no more than 20 guests. It’s a great way to taste the amazing culinary culture and raucous party atmosphere of this unique capital of Catalonia.
Meet your guide in central Barcelona near the Palau de la Musica in the evening. You’ll proceed on a relaxed walk through the city to the Eixample neighborhood to make your first tapas stop of the evening at a sleek modernist-style bar. Enjoy plates of some of Barcelona’s most iconic tapas dishes, including patates braves (potatoes cooked in oil with chili, aioli and red pepper), and pa amb tomàquet (bread covered with a tasty mix of tomatoes and olive oil). Observe the chef as they freshly prepare your plate before your eyes, then enjoy this mouth-watering dish with a drink as you feast on the stories of Catalan food culture shared by your guide.
Proceed on foot to your second tapas stop of the evening, listening as your guide shares more insights into the development Barcelona’s food scene, culture and history as you walk. Stop number two is a much-loved neighborhood ham store in the El Born area. Check out the savory legs of jamón serrano (Serrano ham) dangling in the windows before heading inside to taste a choice selection of the shop’s best cheeses (like Manchego) along with its top-notch meats, cured from pigs fed a diet of oil-rich acorns.
Continue walking through El Born, meandering past the old Roman walls and the Barcelona Cathedral (Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Santa Eulalia) as you make your way to the narrow streets of the Gothic Quarter and to the Plaça Reial. This busy nocturnal gathering spot is also the site of your evening’s flamenco performance, hosted in one of the city’s oldest flamenco venues.
Enjoy a glass of cava (sparkling wine) before locating your seat for the show, featuring all the best elements of a traditional flamenco performance with singing, fluid dancing and Spanish guitars. Have some sangria and some plates of gourmet tapas as the dancers captivate you with their incredible flamenco moves.
End your evening at the conclusion of the show, though you’re free to continue the fun at the venue’s roof terrace or in its stylish bar, where you can purchase more drinks if you wish.

The background information provided by the guide , but the dancing was boring and the seats were uncomfortable. I would have liked to go to at least one more restaurant.
Gerald_B, Oct 2023
We all loved this tour. We walked around town and our guide explained how history placed a part in what we were seeing now. The tapas places were great with good food. We enjoyed the other folks on our group. The flamenco dance is a must.
Sharon_B, Sep 2023
Great walking tour exploring the old town & gothic quarter during the evening. Flamenco show was very good then we ate at two different tapas restaurants which were both excellent. Great guide too.
Robert_W, Sep 2023
Daniel provided a most meaningful and enjoyable evening. We learned much about the Gothic section, the history of Barcelona, as well as La Rambla. The best part, however, was the tapas and wine at a couple of tapas restaurants, following the enjoyable Flamenco dancers. His knowledge of the culture was superb. I wholeheartedly recommend this experiential tour.

This was a great experience! We went on Our first night in Spain, and it was just the right balance between walking, entertainment, and delicious food after traveling in from the US. Our guide Daniel was fantastic, and the flamenco and food were amazing. Would definitely recommend this tour!!
Dani_F, Jul 2023
This was a fun tour, flamenco was good, but the walking tour and tapas was nice also. A good way to meet people and try quality restaurants you might not otherwise know about. Daniel was a friendly and engaging guide.
Jacquie_A, Jul 2023
It was a great way to get our bearings of the gothic quarter starting with a moving flamenco show and an abundance of tapas.
Jim_J, May 2023
The knowledge that Daniel had of the city and country was amazing and interesting. We had a great time exploring the Gothic Quarter and had a wonderful experience. Great start with flamenco and even better finish with tapas and conversation
Kelly_F, May 2023
The location meeting point was vague and our tour guide was a little late so we were initially concerned about being in the wrong spot. Despite that, it was a fun tour. The tapas restaurants were so good, we went back! We enjoyed all the information he provided too.
The Flamenco show was fun, but hard to see from the back.
peggy_c, May 2023
Daniel was awesome! Very knowledgeable on the art, architecture, history, food and the best local venues.
