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.

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.

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.

Eric was an American guide who has lived in Barcelona for years. First off, he was so knowledgeable and we could understand every word he said. Big plus!! Also, we went to three quaint, out of the way places we never would have found on our own. So that was great. Delicious food, amazing drinks. In addition, eric also knows so much history! Another plus. If I went back to Barcelona, I would definitely book again. Don’t wait…..just DO IT!❤️
