Gastronomy and wine tourism

It is difficult to find a more appropriate name than Montserrat (serrated mountain) for Catalonia’s most iconic mountain range. With its unusual shapes, bold peaks and dangerous cliffs, the mountain's imposing profile cuts across the sky above the great central depression of Catalonia, while living up to its name. 

If you are a lover of good food and like to explore the origins of the products you enjoy, we suggest a tour taking in several producers in the regions around Barcelona. From freshly picked fruit to artisan cheeses, beer, chocolate, honey and jam, these experiences will allow you experience food with all your senses. Are you ready to try them?

Some journeys are made by foot, while we carry others in our hearts. Then there are those we discern on our palates.

The food tours in the Lluçanès, Garraf, Penedès and Montserrat regions are just like that: a journey following the roots and authentic flavours that link us to the land, the people and their enduring traditions. On this tour, bread, truffles, cottage cheese and coca (Catalan flatbread) are not just food, but stories that unfold with every bite.
