Welcome to Food Tours Barcelona

Join us on an adventure in Catalan gastronomy

 

Introducing our Catalan Gastronomy Tour

With the Pyrenees mountains, Mediterranean sea, and the Penedes and Priorat wine regions all nearby, Barcelona has always been blessed with great food and drink, but since the 1990s a new wave of pioneering Catalan chefs, led by elBulli’s Ferran Adria, brought new ideas and new creativity to the local food scene making Barcelona one of the world’s top culinary destinations.

Our mission at Food Tours Barcelona is to reveal that world to our guests, starting with our flagship tour: The Evolution of Catalan Gastronomy.

This walking tour takes you on a journey through the culinary history of Catalonia, showing you the monastery where fields provided fruit and vegetables in medieval times, the thriving local marketplace where many top chefs buy their produce today, and then offering you the chance to savour the best regional produce and classic dishes, before regaling your taste buds with the surprising and imaginative creative tapas the city is now known for.

More About Us

Food Tours Barcelona is made up of a small team of passionate travellers and food lovers from different backgrounds who got excited about the prospect of designing Barcelona’s best culinary tours, and set out to make that dream a reality. There are some great food and wine tours out there already, but nothing that quite captured the true essence of Catalan cuisine as we understand it, and so, after much love and hard work, this project was born.
