Barcelona
One of the best destinations for food lovers in Europe, Barcelona is an excellent choice for your food technology school trip! A city regenerated by mass tourism, Barcelona also provides an insight into the challenges of the industry.
On your food technology school trip to Barcelona, your group will have a choice of exciting culinary experiences. You can visit the world-famous Boqueria market, with its fresh, colourful produce, treat your taste buds to a tapas tour and learn how to make traditional Spanish paella with a Spanish cookery class. Your school group can build its knowledge of authentic Spanish dishes, pick up new food preparation techniques and fill your cookbook with more delicious recipes!
