Barcelona VIP Gothic Quarter Tapas Small Group Tour

We'll take you through Barcelona's famous Ciutat Vella (old city): past roman walls, alongside cathedrals, and through precious plazas.

Monday to Thursday - Hidden on a quiet corner of El Born, this peaceful 12th-century Romanesque square houses the ancient Capella d’en Marcús — a little sanctuary once linked to pilgrims and medieval postal riders.

Friday to Sunday - We will also pass by some of the remnants of the Roman city wall of Barcelona (Muralla Romana), constructed largely in the 3rd century to ward off and protect from invaders.

Warm, family-run restaurant where traditional Spanish cooking meets creative flair. Here you'll sample some of the following tastings: Spanish omelette, eggplant with honey, pork cheek, cannelloni with pork sausage, burrata, or pork belly, along with a glass of vermouth.

Monday to Thursday - While the focus of the tour is very much on the iconic Gothic Quarter, we often pass through a few corners of the other beautiful old parts of the Ciutat Vella (Old City): El Born and La Ribera.

Friday to Sunday - We will pass many notable sites in the Gothic Quarter, including the "Catedral Del Mar", which was built between 1329 and 1383 and is an exceptional example of Catalan Gothic style.

Monday to Thursday - A charming, unpretentious tapas bar tucked in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Expect to taste a selection that will include some tastings like Jamón Ibérico, bread with tomato, seasonal tomato salad with tuna belly, calamari with kimchi sauce, grilled Iberian pork, croquettes, or other local favorites, paired with a Catalan red wine.

Friday to Sunday - A cozy, old-school cellar bar with character in the heart of Barcelona, where you'll try some vermouth and some tastings of Iberian ham, fried anchovies, juicy meatballs, garlicky mushrooms al ajillo, or salty, blistered Padrón peppers.

We will pass through some gorgeous streets and plazas, such as the Plaça de Sant Jaume or the Plaça Sant Just.

Historic Jewish Quarter — a labyrinth of narrow medieval alleys, ancient stone buildings, and hidden courtyards. Once the city’s Jewish heart, today it invites you to explore centuries of history and heritage.

Finish with a tasting of a classic Catalan dessert: a fig ice cream, a crema catalana, or a chestnut pie, paired with fine Cava, a Spanish sparkling wine, in a charming wine cellar tucked into Barcelona’s historic Jewish Quarter.

A hauntingly beautiful square in the Gothic Quarter with Baroque architecture and visible scars from Barcelona’s past, offering a quiet, reflective moment steeped in history.
