What you can expect

Commence your tour with ExperienceFirst at the renowned Boqueria Market, a culinary gem acclaimed as one of the world's premier food markets. Here, you'll be astounded by the vast array and abundance of fresh and prepared foods available.

Guided through the market's intricate pathways, you'll gain insight into Catalan food traditions while savoring traditional Catalan olives and indulging in the most beloved flavors of turrón, a delectable nougat confection.

Emerging from the Boqueria Market, you'll find yourself at the picturesque Ramblas promenade. Once a market itself and celebrated for its flower vendors, the Ramblas offers a delightful setting to immerse yourself in the atmosphere, capture memorable photos, and leisurely stroll past its alfresco cafes, fragrant flower stalls, and the vibrant Miró mosaic.

Our journey then transports you back in time to ancient Barcelona with a wander through the alleys of the Gothic Quarter, teeming with antique shops and the occasional antique market.

Continuing on, we'll arrive at the bustling Santa Caterina Market, the city's first covered market, distinguished by its undulating, brightly colored roof. Here, you'll marvel at the remains of an ancient medieval monastery.

En route to our final destination, we'll visit a local caganer shop to uncover the intriguing story behind one of Catalonia's most peculiar traditions. As our tour progresses, we'll pause at the monumental Santa Maria del Mar church, where you'll hear captivating tales of the La Ribera neighborhood's sailors.

Concluding our Barcelona markets tour, we arrive at the expansive Market of Born. Originally constructed as a market, this remarkable steel and glass structure now houses the remnants of the Born neighborhood, dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries.
