Overview

Skip a boring walking tour and quench your thirst for adventure on the this Barcelona nightlife tour, social and cultural experience where you'll explore the city after dark.

With a local guide and a group of fellow travellers you’ll wander the streets of the El Born and the Gothic neighbourhoods to uncover forbidden secrets about Barcelona's sex-fuelled past that the locals don't want you to know about. Along the way you’ll stop at four trendy spots and savour the flavours of Barcelona’s favourite drinks including white sangria, vermouth, and a surprise cocktail. Even sober travellers can join in the fun with non-alcoholic beverages!

While sipping your delicious drinks your guide will tell you about how these beverages evolved before taking you to a final spot. Just because the tour’s over it doesn’t mean that the party has to stop. Continue the night with your newfound friends because let’s be honest, all of the best memories start with a night out!

What To Expect

Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar

A basilica doesn't seem like an appropriate meeting point for a night out but for us, it's the perfect place to start! As you'll discover later on, Catalans can get a little wild when they party, including monks and nuns. After an introduction into Barcelona's bizarre traditions we'll head to the first stop on our adventure.
