About this tour

What to expect

You'll meet your guide and small group, then set off on foot through Girona's neighbourhoods, stopping at 4–6 local food shops, delis, and eateries. At each stop, you'll taste a regional speciality with brief context from your guide—expect to linger 10–15 minutes per location. The pace is leisurely; walking segments between stops are short.

Toward the end of the 2.5 hours, you'll head to a local tapas bar where you'll sit down for a final course of tapas and drinks (wine, beer, or soft drinks depending on age). The evening wraps up at the bar, where you're free to stay longer if you wish.

Good to know

This works well for food enthusiasts, cultural explorers, and families wanting to understand Girona beyond the guidebook. It suits mixed fitness levels since walking is gentle and broken up by stationary tasting stops. Public transport is nearby if you need to get there or leave early. Note: this is an evening tour, so it's less suitable for very young children on strict bedtimes. Tips to your guide aren't included and are optional. Any extras you buy at shops (souvenirs, extra wine) cost extra. Weather won't stop it, but rain gear is wise. Group size keeps things intimate but means you'll need to book ahead during peak season.
