What To Expect
Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar
A basilica doesn't seem like an appropriate meeting point for a night out but for us, it's the perfect place to start! As you'll discover later on, Catalans can get a little wild when they party, including monks and nuns. After an introduction into Barcelona's bizarre traditions we'll head to the first stop on our adventure.
El Born
As Barcelona's former red light district, El Born is full of forbidden, scandalous history to uncover. Your guide will fill you in on the secrets of spotting a 14th century brothel and tell you other legends about the sex culture of the city. Afterwards, we'll head to a graveyard for a bit of paranormal activity before visiting some more spots where we'll try Spanish vermouth, cava sangria, and a centuries-old shot native to Barcelona.

5.00We had an unforgettable experience on our tour of Barcelona with Sarah and Mariah as our guides. They were incredibly knowledgeable and brought the city’s rich, and at times unsavory, history to life with engaging stories and insights. We learned so much about the lesser-known past of Barcelona that added depth and context to the city’s famous landmarks. The best part? The amazing bar stops along the way! Each spot offered unique drinks that perfectly complemented the historical anecdotes, making for an unforgettable blend of culture, history, and fun. Sarah and Mariah were not only informative but also personable, making us feel like we were exploring the city with friends. Highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to dive deeper into Barcelona’s history while enjoying some fantastic drinks at local bars. Thank you, Sarah and Mariah, for an incredible experience!
Great tour!
