Discover through your guide’s deep knowledge how Catalonia's coastal areas craft deep reds, while its mountains are known for fruity whites.

Sip Catalonia’s signature sparkling wine, produced in the Penedès region, and savor the full-bodied flavors of north-central Spain’s Rioja.

Food and wine scene

Throughout, gain a deeper understanding of the laid-back vibe and extended meal times that have become synonymous with Spanish cuisine.

Seasonal dishes

From cold soups to hearty stews and from cod salads to stuffed pasta, encounter the many ways Barcelona’s cuisine changes by season.

Tapas

We’ve been on a variety of food tours, but this was head and shoulders above the rest. Our guide Havier is a certified sommelier and it showed. He introduced us to fabulous, unique wines. The food pairings were equally unique and a great introduction to classic tapas. Shout out to Havier: we took your advice and tried Tapeo on Tuesday. Loved it!

The best!

Kailie is an amazing guide. She shared her knowledge of Spanish food and wine freely with us and never made us feel as if we were being lectured. It was more like having a catch-up conversation with your good friend. I would book this tour again and again. The food and wine was amazing. I am so excited to know more about Cava. Thanks, Kailie.

Our 2+ week of vacationing featured MANY tours around food & wine, and this Tour Guy tour was unquestionably the best! Small tours like this are always wonderful, and this time felt VERY private -- only 4 of us! Our sommelier/guide Kailie was absolutely superb, and the 4 of us could have spent all afternoon with her!!! Kailie was so knowledgeable about both the wines she curated, and the foods selected at our 3 different restaurant stops. And by being intimately small, the 5 of us actually got to know each other too --- a bonus! A great experience, thanks to Kailie!!!
