    Went on the Tastes & Traditions tour of Barcelona and it was an awesome experience. 10+ stops and plenty of bites along the way. We especially loved touring el Mercat de Santa Caterina as it was less busy than La Boqueria but with no less food or vendors. Our guide Santi (short for Santiago) was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, but also patient as we took our time exploring the different stops. Worth the price and can't recommend enough. - Jacob Cortez
    Adriana was our amazing guide and her passion for Barcelona and food was thrilling. She made our very open and friendly group feel comfortable and all the history and knowledge accessible. Really the best experience to embrace Barcelona and understand it better. Al 3 stops were unique and family owned, food and drinks delicious, outstanding in every way. - Oksana
    First time in Europe and Giulia was a wonderful guide. We took the food tour our first full day and it was a great intro to the city through food and history. I would highly recommend! - Ben K.
