5 star Barcelona tapas tour - Alan was just awesome! He had made reservations at 3 different tapas restaurants. He made wonderful recommendations too. Drinks and food included! Alan was very knowledgeable about the city and food. I was in a mobility scooter and he picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel. The day of our tour happened to be our 39th anniversary and he even bought us a souvenir made by a local artisan! Alan made it an excellent excursion which I highly recommend!

Exceptional Activity - Lots of walking. Very personalized to our tastes and walking speed. Great overview of Barcelona on our first visit to the city. Great introduction to local food customs. Our guide Pau did his best to explain his love and admiration for his home of Catalonia

Learned a lot! - We were a little apprehensive about doing this as it is Unscripted (as the the tour suggests), but it ended up being planned out exactly to our tastes. Our guide took us around the El Born area, starting at the market with drinks and croquettes along with other foods to satisfy our Foodie tastes. We walked around El Born learning about the area, the culture and the traditions. We stopped at the original place for Los Pescatidos. We had Catalan dessert and Cava. I was quite impressed with this experience, especially not knowing what we were going to do and see. Would do it again.

Sumptuous Personal food tour! - In a world where so few things are personalized and special, Annika delivered a most marvelous personalized tour. She guided my sister-in-law and I (only 2 of us!) through the mesmerizing choices of tapas and where to eat in this beautiful Barcelona city! She hosted us through restaurants and markets that we would not have seen otherwise. She spoke Spanish and English perfectly to get us exactly what we wanted even when we didn’t know we wanted it! Truly, one of the best food tours I have ever taken!

Our guide was very... - Our guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the food and culture. The only issue was with the description of the adventure and the time of the excursion could not happen because restaurants are not open at that time. Would not change our experience but may want to change the description of the excursion.

Absolutely did not meet my expectations - I booked this tour as a surprise gift for my parents to celebrate our trip together. Before booking, I was sent a detailed survey asking about our specific interests in food, music and culture. I spent a lot of time filling it out carefully excited to create a special experience. Based on the survey and the price, I was expecting a curated, personalized afternoon that reflected what I shared. Unfortunately the tour didn’t match what was promised and what I had hoped to give them. Very little cultural or historical engagement. While Frederico was polite, the cultural context was minimal. He briefly pointed out a Roman wall and a few sites in passing, but didn’t explain much, and we often had to ask about things ourselves. When telling Frederico about things we really wanted to see, there didn’t seem like there was much effort to adapt or incorporate any of these elements we were hoping to experience. We didn’t have much choice in the tapas we were served at the first stop and then at the second stop, the waiter was rude to Frederico which made things uncomfortable for us. The third stop was dessert which we didn’t really want to eat because we were expecting more Tapas on a tapas tour lol. Federico was friendly, but very quiet and much of the experience was awkward unless we made conversation ourselves. There wasn’t the energy, enthusiasm, or storytelling that I expected from a cultural and food-focused walking tour. This was supposed to be a special, thank you gift for my family, and I was so disappointed that it ended up feeling unorganized, impersonal, and not reflective of anything I shared in the survey.
