Ready for a 2,000-year whirlwind romance with Barcelona's coolest 'hoods? Join us for a 3.5-hour magical mystery tour through Barceloneta, the Gothic Quarter, and El Born! Our passionate guides will bring Barcelona's history to life, sprinkling in local traditions and, of course, amazing food! Think legendary "Bombas," famous Patatas Bravas, and a whole lot more deliciousness. We're talking local cheeses, cured meats, heavenly house-made sparkling wine & Cava, and the refreshing "Clara" – basically, a party in your mouth! This tour is the ultimate combo: incredible food and 2,000 years of history, all rolled into one epic experience. Get lost (in a good way!) in the medieval streets of old Barcino (aka Barcelona), and discover hidden family-run restaurants, bodegas, and taverns that you won't find in any guidebook. Prepare for your tastebuds and your brain to be blown away!
