Cava & Chocolate – the perfect combination for your senses and a tradition here in Catalonia!
Join us on this exclusive Cava & Chocolate experience in the picturesque town of Sant Sadurni – just 40 minutes away from Barcelona in the middle of the wine country of Penedés.
We will visit a small traditional, family run Cava winery and learn about the production of this special sparkling wine that is so inherent to the region. After the tour on their premises we will sit down in the beautiful courtyard and taste several organic, premium Cava´s.
Afterwards it is possible to have a delicious four course lunch menu in the best restaurant in the center of Sant Sadurni. In the afternoon we will visit the local chocolate factory and learn more about their 140 years of skills in making fine chocolates.
We finish this experience with a stroll through the narrow streets of Sant Sadurni before returning back to Barcelona by train.

We had a lovely day with Michael in the countryside outside Barcelona. The tour was very intimate (the four members of my family) and educational. The tour took place in a quiet countryside town, which was a welcome break from Barcelona. Michael connected with all the ages and personalities in my family. We made a quick stop for a Cava tasting outside the train stop then on to the chocolate tour, which was very delicious. Then had a great lunch at a local restaurant. It was a set menu with many different options for a starter, main, and, dessert. Between the four of us we tried most of the options and everything was tasty. Then on to the main event the boutique Cava winery. Michael had full access to the grounds and we saw many unique and interesting behind the scenes facts you will not see on other tours. We tried multiple Cava, including a rose’. We met the owner as he was putting labels on some special bottles and took pictures with him. Michael was also very helpful giving recommendations we reached out to him after the tour and he was very responsive with our inquiries regarding good places to eat. We hope to see Michael again in Barcelona or Amsterdam where he also has tours. Highly recommend this tour company.

Amazing tour to the birth place of the sparkling wine. You visit the factory of Freixenette and a wonderful small winery and get to taste delicious Cava. The guide Christian is knowledgeable and charming. A wonderful day in the spanish countryside outside of Bercelona.

This is fun. Michael & Christian, first-rate guides, take you to a magical village one hour from Barcelona to enjoy some of the world's best chocolate and cava in the place where they are made. If you choose, you can also enjoy a world class luncheon (extra charge is worth it). What better way to spend your day?

Have you always wanted to roam the wine cellar of a winegrower in private? Find out more on the spot? Have a friend with you who can explain what you have seen? Who will open every door in the deep cellar and show you all the secrets of the production of a real cava? And to top it all off, opens the bottles you've just seen under shady trees in a gentle breeze and hands them to you to taste?
Then you should definitely get in touch with Christian and Michael. We will never forget this remarkable day in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia.
A typical Spanish lunch is served in a restaurant where only locals eat. Highly recommended.
The chocolate factory introduced us to the secrets of the history and production of this sweet temptation. Here, of course, there is a point deduction for the chocolate; as a Swiss, one is naturally ( )prejudiced and/or ( )patriotically biased here [please tick the appropriate box, multiple answers are possible].
However, the tour can always be fully recommended as the highlight of a stay in Barcelona.

It was a great tour. Michael was the best guide I have had on any tour (been traveling for 3 months - lots of tours). He got to know us and adjusted the tour enroute. Every part of the tour was excellent. The chocolate factory, lunch, and especially the Cava winery seemed to be far from touristy and very authentic.

Michael was friendly and knowledgable, taking us to a wonderful chocolatier and a great Cava house with an incredible patio. You know the places are great when you see their products being sold all over Spain. Amatller chocolates we found everywhere with up to 50% mark up over what we got at the factory. As for the Cava, well, we found a bottle being offered in San Sebastián at 3x the price. Seeing that made me appreciate the tour where we could get the bottle at cost and drink a cool glass on a gorgeous patio under the Spanish sun.

We were lucky to take part in this Cava Tour a couple of weeks ago and we had the opportunity to relish some fine Cava. The event planners Christian & Michael offered us an interesting tour which included a tasty barbecue with lots of bubbles! They successfully arranged every moment of the event by giving us thorough details as well as great company. We had fun and will remember that sunny day!
