What you'll do

Begin your unforgettable evening at Plaza Nueva, Granada's bustling main square. Here, your guide will provide an introduction to the city's rich history and lead you through the picturesque "Christian Quarter," or city center. Your first stop will be at a classic Granada tavern where you'll have the opportunity to indulge in authentic tapas, such as juicy meatballs, flavorful croquettes, and perfectly roasted ham. Each tapas bar on the tour offers one drink and a choice of one plate to share, so if you're in a group, you'll have the chance to savor a variety of dishes.

As you continue your gastronomic adventure, the journey takes you into the enchanting Albaicin, or "Arab Quarter." As Granada's oldest neighborhood, its winding, white-washed streets serve as a vibrant hub of local life. Enjoy the lively atmosphere as you stop at another tapas spot, savoring more delicious regional fare. Throughout the tour, your guide will ensure that any dietary needs are met, whether you require vegetarian, vegan, non-pork, or other options—just be sure to notify us in advance.

With your taste buds satisfied, it's time to venture up into the captivating Gypsy neighborhood of Sacromonte. For centuries, the Gypsy populations have called these natural caves nestled in the mountain edge their home, and it's here that the captivating art of flamenco was born. You'll be treated to an intimate flamenco show within one of the oldest and most authentic caves, still owned by a local Gypsy family. Unlike other flamenco shows in Spain, this unique experience allows you to be completely immersed in the culture, as you'll be situated inside the mountain itself.
As the evening comes to a close, your final culinary delight awaits: the locals' favorite dessert, Pionono. Savor its sweet flavors as you reflect on your memorable night exploring Granada's historic districts, indulging in exquisite tapas, and witnessing the mesmerizing art of flamenco.

Marcell was amazing at discussing the food and drink during the tapas part of the tour. We sort of ran out of time and had to ride a taxi up to the Flamenco show. The Flamenco part of the visit was in a unique cave dwelling, but it was a little cramped. Read more
