Barcelona is a wine and tapas city, but the tourist core does justice to neither. This small group tour fixes that. A certified sommelier walks you through Sant Antoni, a genuine local neighbourhood the tour buses skip, pairing four artisan Spanish wines with seven creative tapas, 11 tastings in all, across three unhurried, seated stops at family run restaurants. You taste your way from a cava to a bold Rioja red, and learn exactly why each pairing works. Because the sommelier chooses around the season and what is best that week, no two tours are quite the same. You will leave with a personal list of bars and restaurants for the rest of your trip, and lunch or dinner already taken care of.

- Meals
- A personal list of bars and restaurants to take home for the rest of your trip

The best ever!
Probably the best food tour we have ever taken! Javier was incredible; the food excellent and the wines paired perfectly! Wish we could rate it higher than a 5!
Response from the operator: Robert, thank you! It was a real pleasure sharing those wines and tapas with you. Hearing you say it's the best food tour you've ever taken means a lot to me, because I choose every stop and every pairing myself. If friends or family are heading to Barcelona, I'd love to welcome them as well. Salud, and I hope we raise a glass together again one day. -Javier

Javier and Claire curated...
Javier and Claire curated 3 great experiences with wonderful wines. The tapas choices were carefully paired with different varietals. All very well done. The conversation and company was terrific.
Response from the operator: Thank you for the kind words! Claire and I loved having you along, and we're happy the pairings were a hit. Hope to see you again in Barcelona. Salut! -Javier

Wine Knowledge & Hidden Gems
Our tour guide Kailie was phenomenal. She had extensive knowledge of wines not only from Spain, but from other regions of the globe. Her ability to cross reference helped us understand the world of wines better. Additionally, we were exposed to a lesser known area of Barcelona, full of hidden gem wine bars and tapas restaurants. We 1,000% recommend this tour!
Response from the operator: Wow, thank you for this! Reading this genuinely made our day. Kailie will be so touched, she pours so much of herself into every tour, and it's wonderful to hear her passion for wine really came through for you. We're so glad she could open up that lesser known side of Barcelona for you too, those hidden little wine bars and tapas spots are close to our hearts, and it means the world when guests fall in love with them the way we have. Thank you for the 1,000% recommendation! We'd be so happy to welcome you back anytime you're in Barcelona.

10/10 Experience!
What a beautiful experience in an incredible city. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and was so kind and polite. She was super friendly, relatable, and by the end, felt like another friend in the group. I cannot recommend this experience enough.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for these kind words! We’re thrilled the experience felt special and that your guide made you feel like part of the group, that warmth is exactly what we aim for on every tour. We’ll be sure to pass along your praise to her. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you back to Barcelona soon!

Tasty eats and vino with Javier
Javier is knowledgeable, articulate and had a great sense of humor. You can always judge a person by how they are greeted by people and everywhere we went people genuinely loved seeing him. Wines were exciting to try also. Highly recommend him. !!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you for this Corina, it genuinely made my day. Trying wines with people who are as curious as you guys were, is my favorite part of doing this, so I'm happy the tastings were fun. And you're kind to mention the welcomes we got around the restaurants. I've been lucky to build those friendships over the years. Come back whenever you're in Barcelona. There are always more bottles worth opening. Cheers.

Why this scores 83
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Barcelona.
How much does Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier cost?
+
Prices start at €119 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Barcelona usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Barcelona is not rushed.
Is Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 371 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Barcelona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier?
+
Around 130 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Barcelona can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Barcelona and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Barcelona within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Barcelona?
+
Barcelona's Gaudí sites are capacity-limited and the official timed tickets go first, so most of the market is resellers with a guide attached. We weight those heavily on whether the guide is an architecture specialist. Beyond Gaudí, the tapas crawls in Gràcia and the Montserrat day trips carry the highest rankings in the city. On Outty we rank every Barcelona experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel & Cliff Jump from Barcelona, Gràcia Tapas and Vermouth Crawl, Girona & Dali Museum Small Group Tour with Pick-up from Barcelona. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Barcelona?
+
May, June, September and October. Sagrada Família light is best mid-morning. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Barcelona?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier?
+
Included: Meals; A personal list of bars and restaurants to take home for the rest of your trip; Small-group experience (maximum 8 guests); A seat and a guided wine and food pairing at every stop, explained by your certified somme; and Alcoholic beverages. Not included: Gratuities (optional); and Hotel pickup or transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier?
+
Your guide will meet you at the designated meeting point wearing an official Uncorked Vines ID badge. Please wait directly outside the building marked “Stay Together Barcelona Apartments.” Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Barcelona Small Group Wine & Tapas Tour with a Sommelier if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
