de Correus, 1, located near the main post office in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Look for the yellow Carpe Diem Tours flag or sign so we can spot each other easily. Please arrive 10 minutes early, as the tour will start on time and no refunds are provided for late arrivals.
15 minDiscover the oldest neighbourhood through its food. We’ll start our journey at a time-honoured tapas spot where you’ll try Spanish classics like croquettes, patatas bravas, and pimientos de Padrón, washing them down with a glass of perfectly paired wine.
20 minWith a micro menu of just four tapas, it embodies the beautiful simplicity of Spanish cuisine. Located just steps from the port, we’ll dine like sailors once did—sharing paper cones of fried white anchovies (boquerones), tasting traditional Catalan butifarra sausage, and sipping from a porrón, the region’s iconic communal wine jug, alongside a glass of Spanish vermouth. *Due to seasonal holidays, weekend availability, and weather conditions, we may not be able to go to this spot but we will compensate by ordering additional food at another stop or replacing this spot with another venue.*
15 minDiscover the origins of tapas as you soak up the buzz of a traditional pintxos bar, straight out of the Basque Country. You’ll take part in the ritual yourself, browsing the bar and choosing your favorite pintxos as locals do.
