Famous for its inhabited caves that are carved out of the soft slopes of Cerro de San Miguel, Sacromonte is at the heart of Granada’s flamenco heritage, with the caves having served as popular places for the community to dance and socialize since the 19th century.
On arrival, head for El Templo del Flamenco, a popular cave venue that is dedicated to zambra, a kind of gypsy flamenco that originated in Granada. Loosely translated as ‘party’ in Arabic, zambra is thought to date back to the 15th century when it was performed by the Moriscos (Muslims who converted to Christianity) during Moorish celebrations.
Feel your excitement build as you take your seat and sip on your included glass of sangria, beer, wine, soda or water. Alternatively, upgrade to enjoy a delectable 3-course dinner with a drink before the show. Dine on traditional dishes such as cordovan salmorejo, a chilled soup made with ripe tomatoes and vegetables. See the Itinerary for a sample menu.
Then, enjoy an exhilarating hour-long show, crammed with fast-paced choreography and riveting live music. Stamp and clap along as dancers perform fiery flamenco moves with Arabic flare, including shimmies that are reminiscent of belly dancing.
Your experience concludes after the performance is over. You may then use your included hop-on hop-off tourist train ticket to return to your accommodation, or to experience the nightlife elsewhere in Granada. Your ticket is valid for a full day, allowing you to travel about the city quickly and easily on the day of your tour.
