Program Barcelona food markets
Your guide and Chef will meet you at your hotel and guide you to the Santa Caterina market in the Barrio de la Ribera. Learn about the most typical Spanish ingredients, and some you might not have expected, through a behind-the-scenes tour by your local luxury chef and expert gastronomic consultant: he knows all the best shops and stands.
Embark on a fully-gourmet market experience, trails blazing, tasting your way through fresh fare from coast to coast. Let your eyes and nose guide you as you amble between succulent fresh fruits and vegetables to the freshly caught fish stands where you can find Norwegian cod unparalleled even in its home country.
After the visit to Santa Caterina, you will walk to the Gothic Quarter, stopping only for some enjoyable tapas and a glass of delicious, local wine on the way. Tapas and a glass of wine can be enjoyed at any time of day, but it is not always easy to find the best place: your guide can help.
Amble from Santa Caterina to the Gothic Quarter, where world-famous Boquería market is. Taste your way through Spanish cuisine at the different stands and skip the confusion of trying to navigate it yourself. To us, this experience isn’t complete without picking up wild mushrooms – depending on the season-, ripened cheeses, and even some unusual goodies that will surprise and delight you.
