This tour is ideal for anyone with an interest in food and culture, wishing another side to the vibrant and cosmopolitan capital of Catalunya. The tour will start with a visit to a traditional tapas bar in the heart of Barcelona’s old town. As you enjoy a selection of delicious tapas, your friendly local guide will tell all you about the history and traditions associated with Spanish small-plate dining and experience for yourself the tantalizing tapas scene prevalent in Barcelona today. Next we’ll go for a stroll around the Barri Gotic, Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, a maze of narrow streets opening up onto quiet squares where you’ll see the locals go about their everyday lives. You’ll see Roman walls, mediaeval merchants’ palaces and some wonderful churches including Barcelona’s magnificent Gothic Cathedral. The tour ends with a live flamenco show. Although native to the southern region of Andalusia, Barcelona has long been an important centre for this most passionate of art forms producing many local talents such as Carmen Amaya and Miguel Poveda, as well as attracting artistes from the South. Experience how music and dance intermingle in this improvisational art form with moments of both sombre concentration and fiery explosion. It’s bound to get your pulse racing.

Gastronomy & nightlifeFull dayHard Rock Cafe Barcelona
Films, cars, planets and meteorites have been named after Barcelona as have bands and, of course, Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballé's hit song. There’s no doubt that on top of being one of the most vibrant, exciting and sophisticated cities in Europe, Barcelona is also a rock ‘n’ roll Mecca. Like all great revolutions, the Hard Rock Cafe wasn’t meant to succeed. It was 1971 and as the Swinging Sixties had given way to the Super Seventies, fashions and tastes were changing. Two hungry young Americans were in London and couldn’t find a decent place to eat a decent burger… so they opened up a joint in the English capital. Their landlord didn’t think it would last and gave them just a six-month lease. Four decades later, there almost 200 Hard Rock Cafes in more than 50 countries worldwide. The first T-shirt hit the streets in ‘74 and the first piece of memorabilia came, fittingly, by chance in ‘79 when Eric Clapton asked to hang his Lead II Fender guitar over his favourite bar stool and thus mark as his spot. Today, the rock 'n' roll collection has more than 74,000 pieces and is the largest of its kind. By 1982, the Hard Rock Cafe had gone global and the rest, as they say, is history (that’s still being written)!
