This food tour and our guide Jordi immerse us in the history, geography, culinary delights, and culture during this three hour in depth, food experience.
It was among our favorite Tours, we have taken with this company, and we have taken many, although on the “Walks” side.
We wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Geordie as a guide and this tour as an introduction to Barcelona.

This was such a fun tour! Mick was a great and knowledgeable guide, and the massive variety of stops, including a few that opened specifically for the tour, gave us a fantastic experience without the crowds that large tourist centers can see. Cannot recommend highly enough, and I will definitely check to see if Devour tours are available at my future travel destinations.

Benadetta was amazing. Knowledgeable, professional and welcoming. She made us all feel at home in a foreign city. And she was great with the child in our group.
