About this tour
A pastry chef guides you through Barcelona's Gothic Quarter and Born neighbourhoods, stopping at nine independent chocolatiers and bakeries over 2.5 hours. You'll taste handcrafted chocolates, artisanal churros, regional pastries and roasted nuts—a savoury-sweet breakfast tour pitched at genuine chocolate enthusiasts rather than casual samplers. The guide knows every ingredient and can work around allergies.

What to expect
Expect a relaxed 2.5-hour amble through two of Barcelona's most textured neighbourhoods, with stops roughly every 15–20 minutes. Your guide—a practising pastry chef—opens doors to places locals know, explaining the story and technique behind each chocolate or pastry you taste. You'll move between sleek contemporary confectioners and century-old bakeries, sampling widely: dark ganaches, milk chocolates, filled pastries, then nuts roasted the old Catalan way. Bring an appetite; this is breakfast-sized eating, not nibbling.
Good to know
Come hungry—you're eating proper portions at each stop. Water and wet wipes supplied. Wheelchair and pram accessible throughout. No pre-booked tickets required. Allergies (gluten, nuts, etc.) accommodated with advance warning; the guide double-checks ingredients on the day.
