Adriana provided a really interesting and informative tour. She's a proud and friendly ambassador for her city; with her passion for the Gothic Quarter shining through. She also took the time to ask us about Scottish cuisine, which was a nice touch. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to beautiful Barcelona. Great value for money too!

Ariana provided a fantastic tour. We saw parts of Barcelona we would never gave encountered. The food with the historic touches and very welcoming food, tapas, pinchos, and bar venues all had something unique to add. So delighted and would highly recommend. Also enjoyed by our pre-teen and teenagers enjoyed! Thank you!!

This food tour with April was very good. April was a wonderful guide gave us great information of the area, culture and also the food / drinks we had. Hit on the best spots to try local food and drinks. It was a pleasant and enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend to give them a try. The food we tried was delicious. One of the other tourist was vegetarian and she was able to still accommodate food options for them!
