- Bene was a wonderful guide, and we had the best time on our tour. My husband and I are reveling with our three teenagers, and Bene kept things fun and engaging. Every tasting was delicious. We would do this tour again and recommend it for anyone visiting Barcelona.

Review of ultimate Barcelona Food Tour - Mick was a fantastic tour guide who was well versed in history, and in a previous life had been a chef. Who better to guide our group on a food tour of Barcelona. He was quite amiable, and took us to places we would never have discovered on our own. We were introduced to local foods and drinks including some Catalan specialties. There was plenty to eat at each stop that we were quite stuffed by end of the tour. We leaned some history along the way and interesting local facts, and Mick made recommendations for further gastronomic exploration.

Amazing Food Tour - Nika was such a great tour guide. She was detailed and organized with her information. We had so many food tastings and learned so much about each one. I have taken other food tours that were not as detailed and educational. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. Hopefully they get Nika as well.

- The Ultimate Barcelona Food Tour with Visit to a Local Market by Devour Tours was a highlight of our Barcelona trip! Our guide, Don, led us through the vibrant El Born and Barceloneta neighborhoods, sharing fascinating insights into the area’s history, culture, and culinary traditions. Every bite was phenomenal—fresh, authentic, and bursting with Catalan flavor. Don introduced us to dishes and hidden gems we’d never have found on our own, and we loved it so much that we returned to several spots that evening to savor those unforgettable tastes again. Don’s easygoing nature and local expertise made the experience truly special. He tailored recommendations to our interests, pointing out extra spots beyond the tour, and his warm rapport with restaurant owners brought each stop to life. Whether you’re a foodie or eager to explore Barcelona’s culture, we highly recommend this Devour Tours experience—it’s a delicious, immersive way to discover the heart of the city!

Delicious food and drinks with a wonderful guide - Our group of two couples took the Ultimate Barcelona Food & Market Tour of El Born and it was fantastic. The tour included multiple stops with delicious food and beverages, insightful history along the way, and a detailed list of suggestions for activities, restaurants, and sights not to miss elsewhere in the city after the tour. Our guide, Andrea, was so nice and really made the experience wonderful for our group. We highly recommend!

Barcelona walking food tour by Devour Tours - The Barcelona walking food tour was amazing. Vera A was our guide - she did a phenomenal job of providing history behind everything we ate. She was super knowledgeable of Barcelona culture and its cuisine. We began in a local market, progressed to local bakeries, and ended our tour with a sit-down lunch of paella. Each place we visited was super friendly and super clean. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Barcelona.
