Made in Catalonia, Barcelona with Culinary Backstreets

At first glance, the Gràcia district of Barcelona appears to be the gatekeeper of the resurgent Catalan identity: “Free Catalonia!” graffiti scrawled in the backstreets, Catalan flags flying from so many balconies, the distinct sound of the Catalan language heard in cafés and eateries. But as one explores the covered markets, bakeries and small bodegas of this colorful, lesser-explored area, the politics du jour recede and the deep culinary roots of this unique culture come into view.

5.00Pam was an absolutely amazing guide on this 5.5 hour tour! We've taken many food tours in our travels and this was by far the best experience we've had. From our first tasting of breakfast to the dessert at the end, the food was unique, delicious and very traditional! Pam even took the time to ask us if we were interested in trying seasonal specialities (snails & mushrooms) and customized the experience to our preferences. Along the way, she taught us a lot about the history and culture of the area, as well as the food. It was a great way to spend most of a day in the Gracia neighborhood of Barcelona. Highly Recommend!
Exceptional Culinary Experience

5.00I travelled alone to The culinary market tour not knowing fully what to expect - travelling alone can be hit and miss. no matter what age you are the tour caters to your needs. Our tour operator was Sinem, an engaging, knowledgeable and friendly guide. There was a young child on our tour but she was kept busy as we were always moving, munching some nice bits from the markets as we went, and drinking local specialities from lovely LOCAL places. I Cant find fault with the tour it was a great experience and more than worth the value.
