Here’s an overview of your tour
Have you always wanted to know about the flamenco tradition? Would you like to understand the art of flamenco and its history before going to a flamenco show? Do you love music but would you like to have clues to understand it? Then this is the tour for you!!
We can't wait for you to participate, see, learn and understand the passion and the art behind this genre. I'm a musician, so I think its very important that you approach flamenco in a less-touristic way.
Enjoy a drink at the market underneath the school: a real non touristy place where locals love to hang out. I'd guide you through flamenco history, culture and curiosities so that you'll enjoy the evening show differently.
Afterwards, you'll enjoy a private castanet lesson, learn the basics of playing the castanets and find out all about the flamenco rhythm. You can buy your own castanets so you can take them home with you!
Walk with me through the center of Madrid where we'll pass beautiful squares and many amazing buildings so you'll also learn about our great architecture.
In the night, you'll experience one of the best tablado shows in Madrid while enjoying a drink.
Join me on this 100% customized flamenco experience... and olé!!
