Barcelona El Born Gourmet Tapas & Wine Tour & Optional Picasso
Overview
In Barcelona, locals eat late, and many of the best restaurants don’t begin dinner service until 8:30 or 9:00 PM. We created this experience so you don’t have to choose between eating early and eating well.
Start in El Born with a fun introduction to Catalan food culture: learn how to prepare traditional "pa amb tomaquet" and try drinking from a "porron".
Then enjoy two relaxed sit-down dining experiences at carefully selected restaurants popular with locals, where we’ve arranged an earlier service especially for our guests.
Between tastings, explore El Born’s medieval streets, discover Santa Maria del Mar and visit a traditional gourmet store. Finish with Jon Cake’s famous cheesecake.
Want to add art to your evening? Select the Picasso Museum option when booking and begin with a guided visit before continuing on foot through El Born.
