Flamenco for a Day: Seville Tour, Workshop & Tasting

Do you want to experience flamenco but don't know where to start? Why choose this experience? ✓ Guided walk through the historic Macarena & Alameda districts. ✓ Exclusive visit to a traditional flamenco guitar workshop. ✓ Hands-on workshop: learn rhythm, clapping, and basic steps. ✓ Local tasting: enjoy authentic appetizers and drinks. ✓ Small groups for a personal and authentic experience. With Flamenco for a Day, you will discover flamenco from the inside through a guided tour of Seville and a hands-on experience designed specifically for beginners. We will begin at the Alameda de Hércules and the Macarena Basilica, where you will learn about the history, symbols, and the deep connection between this neighborhood and flamenco. Afterward, we will visit a flamenco guitar workshop to see first-hand how the soul of the Spanish sound is crafted. We will conclude at our studio with an introductory workshop (learning the rhythm, hand-clapping, and a basic "patadita" step) followed by a relaxed talk with local appetizers. This will help you understand the "language" of flamenco, allowing you to enjoy any show with a much deeper and closer perspective. Ideal if it’s your first time in Seville or if you want to truly understand the essence of flamenco.
