Barcelona Food Tour with Market Visit, Paella Lunch, and Wine

Meet your guide and group in central Barcelona in the morning and head into the winding streets of the medieval Born area to continue your gastronomic explorations. Discover a number of lesser-known Barcelona food vendors, including a nougat shop that’s been in business for over a century. Leave the Born neighborhood and head to seaside Barceloneta for an aperitif. Sip vermouth inside a corner bodega and sample what locals believe is the only type of tapas invented in Barcelona. Next, visit Mercat de la Barceloneta, a Barcelona food market similar to the famous La Boqueria Market but with far fewer tourists. Enjoy samples of cured meat and cheeses. Finish with a traditional Spanish lunch in a hidden gem of the fishers’ district. Chow down on seafood paella, paired with local wine. End the trip after your lunch with a full belly and a head full of new knowledge about the locals-only eating habits of this famous Catalan city.
