What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Maestro Marcelino, C. Hernando Colón, 9, 41004 Sevilla, Spain
We’ll start things off with a visit to a traditional abacería: part shop, part bar, and the perfect spot for a crash course in tapas in Seville. Here you’ll enjoy a selection of all of Spain’s favorite cured meats paired with a sweet vermouth (and you’re in for a pleasant surprise if you haven’t tried Spanish vermouth yet!).
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Catedral de Sevilla, Avenida de la Constitucion s/n, 41001 Seville Spain
We'll pass by Seville's famous Cathedral and Bell Tower - the largest Gothic Cathedral in the world! - where your guide will reveal stories about its history.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Las Teresas, C. Sta. Teresa, 2, 41004 Sevilla, Spain
Next, we’re off to one of Seville’s oldest and most traditional bars, dating back nearly 150 years. And we’ll set you up with the locals’ favorite order here: expertly-sliced, acorn-fed Iberian ham and a local sherry wine, one of Andalusia’s most important products. Here your expert guide will lead you through the roots and mysteries of flamenco—from its unclear origins to its current worldwide fame, and you’ll see how Seville fits into this remarkable story.
Duration: 25 minutes
Stop At: La Casa del Flamenco, Barrio de Santa Cruz Calle Ximenez de Enciso 28, 41004 Seville Spain
Then it’s time to head to the show! Tucked within Seville’s gorgeous Jewish Quarter, you’ll be enjoying the flamenco show in a stunning 15th-century building. This is authentic flamenco so you can expect a small venue with no dramatic lights or microphones, just improvised passion. Thanks to your newfound knowledge of this mysterious art, you’ll be able to savor the world-class performance a little more.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: VINERIA SAN TELMO, P.º de Catalina de Ribera, 4, 41004 Sevilla, Spain
We’ll round out our tapas experience with a sit-down dinner after the show. We’ll be at a modern, family-run tapas bar that was one of the first to bring creative fusion tapas to the city. It’s the perfect moment to share your impressions of the performance over great food and wine!
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Barrio Santa Cruz, Seville Spain
In between delicious food stops explore the streets of the iconic Santa Cruz neighborhood, where Spain's first-ever flamenco shows took place and see where the tradition thrives in modern-day Seville.
Duration: 4 hours

Sophia was our guide and she was excellent. Clearly knew her stuff and was very enthusiastic, informative and knowledgable. The tapas bars both old and new served excellent food and drink. The high light was definitely the Flamenco set in a gorgeous courtyard where we had front row seats. Sophia explained some of the history of Flamenco before the show which helped us to appreciate and understand more of what we were about to experience. It was stunning. Highly skilled performers who clearly loved what they were doing and not just going through the motions. The whole evening was finished off with a delightful tapas meal in a small restaurant. Highly recommended and worth every penny.This is a fantastic introduction to the food and culture of Sevilla. Elena is a wonderful guide who gave us lots of cool information about the tapas and food we were eating, and helped orient us about Flamenco before we watched the beautiful show.

This tour was canceled four days before it was to take place and there was no available alternative. A couple of weeks before, I had tried to contact this company when I had received an e-mail from them regarding a San Sebastian tour. This didn't pertain to me, of course, but I sent them an e-mail just to confirm my Seville booking. Never heard from them. After three days, I decided to call their office, where they did confirm my reservation. Then four days after this phone call, I receive an e-mail from them saying they were canceling the tour in its entirety. Suffice it to say that I am not pleased with this high unprofessional behavior. Avoid this company!Great fun Elena our guide was very knowledgable and great fun Despite the torrential rain we all had a great evening
