We are on the Best of Spain tour in October and arriving 5 days early. I am looking for recommendations for a food and wine tour in Barcelona. We want to experience authentic Catalan cuisine and local wines. Has anyone done a food and wine tour in Barcelona that they absolutely loved? Any tips on what to look for or avoid when choosing a tour? Also, if there are any must-visit restaurants or wine bars, please share!
Barcelona is a fantastic city for food and wine lovers! For an authentic Catalan experience, I’d recommend looking for tours that focus on local markets like La Boqueria and include stops at family-run bodegas. Many tours also pair tapas with regional wines, which is a great way to dive into the local flavors. As for restaurants, Can Culleretes is a must-visit—it’s one of the oldest in the city and serves traditional Catalan dishes. Have you thought about whether you’d prefer a small-group tour or something more private?
