Payment of private evening flamenco and tapas tour starting with a private boat ride on the Guadalquivir river | 1 pax | 4th of September 2023

Description and schedule of services

5:45pm: meet your personal local host by the reception desk of your hotel in Seville to start a guided walk towards the river banks of the Guadalquivir River.

6pm: upon arrival to the river banks, embark on a modern and comfortable private boat that will allow you to enjoy beautiful views of Seville’s river fronts. Along your 60min private ride, you will be explained the importance that the river has had in the history of the city, the long commercial trips between Seville and the New World that departed from its medieval port and what the river represents today for the city and its inhabitants. Along the journey, you will also start to be explained the origins and evolution of flamenco music.

7pm: disembark the boat in the iconic quarter of Triana and be taken on a private walk aimed at learning more about how flamenco music emerged from South West Spain as a result of a slow fusion of the ancient multicultural musical heritage of Southern Spain with the original gypsy rhythms and musical roots. This will set the context for (and enhance your appreciation and enjoyment of) the flamenco performance in a small and intimate venue that will follow, with 4 people on stage (one singer, one guitarist and two dancers).

7:30pm: start of the flamenco performance.

8:30pm: after your flamenco performance, enjoy a tapas tasting tour through Seville old town. Your tour will take you to 2 – 3 selected tapas bars where the locals like to gather with family and friends and where you will taste a selection of 6 – 9 local dishes to share and up to 4 drinks per person (wine, beer, refreshments, water). This will make an excellent opportunity to learn about Southern Spanish gastronomy and wines, about the connection of different foods to different festivities, regions and specific periods of history and also about the dynamics of tapas bars in Southern Spain.

10:30pm: after your tapas and wines adventure, be escorted back to your hotel stopping along the way for a sweet local treat.

11pm: arrival to your hotel and end of services for the day.
