What To Expect
Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar
You might not think a basilica is an appropriate starting point for a nightlife adventure, but you’d be wrong. Catalans can get a little crazy after dark and monks and nuns have always been a part of that history. We’ll start with an introduction into Barcelona’s bizarre traditions before heading to our first stop.
El Born
El Born is Barcelona's former red light district and here you'll learn the secrets of spotting a 14th century brothel along with other legends surrounding the sex culture of the city. We'll also head to a hidden graveyard for a dose of paranormal activity before visiting other stops where we'll try Spanish vermouth, white sangria and a local shot, unique to Barcelona.

5.00This was a great way to start our stay in Barcelona! Mind you, if you book this tour on your first night, it helps a whole lot with jet lag, because of the amount of alcohol you will be drinking lol. The tour itself was fun, interactive, informative, & even though it rained at the time we went, our tour guide, Tami, made it worthwhile! She was extremely personable & down-to-earth. And the drinks were good/tasty! Definitely would recommend this tour to anyone trying to enjoy their night whilst trying to get some drinks in!
Fun tour and good for meeting people.

5.00Despite calling me a liar and questioning my magician capabilities, Mariah was a brilliant guide. She certainly knew her stuff and was VERY funny. Ask her about the belly dancing! And her Edinburgh show.
