Barcelona Taste Tour DEPOSIT

NOVEMBER 2026  TOTAL PRICE: €1100 per person sharing ( single suppliment of €150)

A city break with appetite

Barcelona is one of Europe’s great food cities: elegant, atmospheric, energetic, and made for long lunches, late tapas, market mornings and golden-hour glasses of wine. This 3-night group escape has been designed for guests who want more than a standard city break. It is a curated culinary experience, with the perfect balance of hosted dining, local flavour and relaxed free time.

Staying in the heart of Barcelona, your group will enjoy a stylish short escape shaped around the city’s most memorable pleasures: bustling food markets, beautiful neighbourhoods, exceptional tapas, Catalan hospitality and a pace of travel that feels indulgent rather than over-planned.

This is not a race through landmarks. It is Barcelona, properly savoured.

The experience

Over four days, guests will settle into a centrally located hotel and explore the city through its food culture. From the first welcome dinner to the final farewell brunch, every included experience has been selected to create a trip that feels polished, social and delicious from beginning to end.

Expect market energy, atmospheric streets, excellent wine, generous plates, and the kind of shared dining moments that become the stories people keep telling long after the suitcase is unpacked.

Day One

Arrival in Barcelona | Welcome Tapas Evening

Arrive in Barcelona and make your way into the city centre, where your hotel base places you within easy reach of the city’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. After check-in and time to refresh, the group comes together for a warm and stylish first evening: a welcome tapas dinner with wine in one of the city’s atmospheric central districts.

This is the perfect introduction to Barcelona; relaxed, social and rich in local flavour.

Day Two

Market Morning | Culinary Experience

Today is devoted to the sensory heart of the city. Begin with a market-based food experience, where fresh produce, cured meats, cheeses, seafood, spices and sweets offer a vivid introduction to Catalan food culture. This is followed by a hosted culinary experience, designed to bring guests closer to the ingredients, traditions and flavours that define Barcelona’s food scene.

The afternoon is left free to enjoy the city at leisure before the evening unfolds at your own pace.

Day Three

Gourmet Barcelona | Long Lunch & Evening Flavour

This is the day for lingering. A hosted gourmet lunch with wine offers a more refined taste of the city, with carefully chosen dishes and a slower, more luxurious rhythm. Later, guests enjoy an additional evening foodie experience, whether through a tapas trail, a wine-led evening or another beautifully curated dining moment.

It is a day designed for pleasure, conversation and a little culinary showing off from Barcelona, which, to be fair, does it well.

Day Four

Farewell Brunch | Departure

On your final morning, enjoy a relaxed farewell brunch or coffee and pastry stop before departure. There is time for a final stroll, some market shopping or one last glance at the city before travelling onwards.

You leave well-fed, well-rested and mildly convinced that all future meetings should be held over anchovies and cava.

Accommodation style

The tour is based on a centrally located Barcelona hotel, selected for comfort, convenience and ease of access to the city’s dining districts, shopping streets and transport connections. The preferred areas are the city centre, Eixample, Plaça Catalunya or the Gothic Quarter edge; neighbourhoods that offer both atmosphere and practicality for a group stay.
