Barcelona & Beyond
Some highlights
Discover the genius of Gaudi with the city’s best guides avoiding the long lines outside the Sagrada Familia and other Modernista monuments.
Be part of Mama's kitchen in a local Barcelona apartment and get hands-on with a fun filled cooking class.

Forget “tapas” in Barcelona. Rather indulge in off the beaten path foodie haunts with a renowned food journalist.
Give your legs a rest and make yourself comfortable on a sidecar for a fun way to see Barcelona.
Keep the little ones engaged on an Insider’s Treasure Hunt tour in Barcelona or sit them down and let their creativity flow at a Mosaic Art Workshop.
In Girona and on the Costa Brava, boggle at the surrealist world of Salvador Dalí, hike or bike through charming medieval villages, visit the only Ancient Greek colony in Spain and, in summer a sail down the coastline is a must.
Barcelona captivates with its beguiling Gothic Quarter, dynamic streets, visionary modern architecture, and a culinary scene that pushes boundaries. At the heart of it all is Gaudí, the city’s creative soul, whose genius is immortalized in the Sagrada Familia, Parc Guell, Casa Milà, and Casa Batlló: masterpieces that continue to inspire and awe.
The Gothic Quarter, a maze of narrow, history-laden streets, offers a fascinating glimpse into Barcelona’s past. Beyond its storied monuments, the city brims with vibrant dining and chic boutiques.
North of the city lies the enchanting Girona province, a treasure trove of experiences. From Salvador Dalí’s surrealist legacy to the picturesque fishing villages of the Costa Brava, medieval towns, and Jewish heritage sites, this region is as diverse as it is captivating. Add scenic hiking trails, yacht excursions, and a thriving artisanal food scene—wineries, olive oil farms, and gourmet treats, and you’re spoiled for choice.
For wine enthusiasts, the nearby verdant vineyards of Penedès and the dramatic, rugged terrain of Priorat offer not only world-class vintages but landscapes of unparalleled beauty.
OUR HAPPY CLIENTS SAY
Omg... the food guide from Barcelona was the best we’ve had and we’ve had a lot of food tours over the years!
“The guides were all terrific, and the variety of experiences was great! The ""tapas tour"" was a really fun thing for our first evening--the adorable young man was personable and knowledgeable--really great! The private tour guide for the Sagrada Familia and other Gaudi treasures was awesome --there really is no substitute for a private guide who gets you past the lines and knows everything! And the sidecar tour was such a hoot! Not only did it give us the most fabulous "survey course" tour of Barcelona, it was tremendous fun! Our driver/guide was adorable!”
