A fantastic tour! My husband I love food, I read wonderful reviews about tours with The Barcelona Taste and signed us up before we departed for the city. We did the Gothic Quarter tour with Tito, who was charming, knowledgeable, and a great conversationalist. It was fun to learn about him, his experience growing up in Barca, and of course, about the food we were eating. We were stuffed by the end, these folks do not skimp on ordering! We visited 3 (maybe 4?) different eateries, and enjoyed a lovely assortment of traditional and a little off-the-beaten-path items. Know that the Gothic Tour leans toward a more traditional tapas experience overall, and that there are other tours that are less traditional - just ask before you book. We wanted to do the Gothic Quarter b/c it was close to our hotel and it's gorgeous at night.
Also, I have celiac disease and would like to thank Lorea for emailing with me before I signed up re how this might be handled - for anyone else with this issue - the short answer is that they'll order naturally GF tapas on the tour, but they can't, of course, guarantee no cross contamination - so that's up to you. I risked it, I was 100% fine, and I had SUCH a good time. Highly recommend these folks - in fact, a friend of mine has already booked with them for an upcoming trip! Que aprofiti!
