About the Show

Cuevas Los Tarantos is located within a former cave home in the Sacromonte neighborhood of Granada. Founded in 1972 by Don Jose and Dona Concepcion Martin Quesada Maya Maya, the cave was transformed into a special venue for Zambra style flamenco, typical of the region of Granada. Today the venue remains family run and now includes three different caves. The nightly flamenco shows continue to feature Zambra, the regional, family style of flamenco which at one time was reserved for gypsy weddings only. And on many nights just as the show concludes, a few lucky spectators are chosen by the dancers to get on their feet and join in the dance and celebration.

Ticket options include the flamenco show with a drink or dinner featuring traditional Granadan cuisine. The fixed price, seasonal menu includes a first and second course as well as dessert and beverage. If chosen, the option for transportation (round trip and only available for the 22:30 show) includes pickup from city center locations (direct pickup from some hotels along the route is possible) and a brief panoramic visit to the Mirador San Nicolas with wonderful views of the Alhambra. The route follows the narrow streets of the Albayzín. This former Arab quarter includes typical Carmens, private homes in Granada with terraces that overlook the Alhambra.

Over the years many important figures from city and province have performed in Las Cuevas Los Tarantos: Luis Heredia "El Polaco", Morenito de Íllora and the singer Chonchi Heredia are just a few examples. Las Cuevas "Los Tarantos" has also enjoyed spontaneous visits from artistas such as Paquito Amaya, Vitorino de Pinos, Julio Terremoto, La Porrona, La Coneja, Bienvenido Maya y Guzmán Albea. All have come to perform and enjoy a unique venue that only a city such as Granada can offer.

Reviews

Maybe you will find something better. One of the flamenco dancer was old and very very rude with the spectators, the show per se wasn't too bad but definitely it was not worthy £25. The Sangria was basically just water and juice . Not recommended
The second dancers were ok, the first very bad, they deal with agencies and give them the Bbest places in la cueva for extra money!!! So if you reserve thru their Web site, be sûre that you will have bad seats. I don't recomand this cueva at all
Loved every second of their performance. Such a different and more emotional experience from other Flamenco shows we have seen in Andalucia.
An incredibly, informal, super thrilling show! The dancers, guitar player and singer were fantastic! A night to remember! Thank you for your performance!
Exactly what I wanted to experience. Raw real passionate performances that seem to be unstaged and authentic in the moment. Sangria was great. We loved this experience especially being in the caves where flamenco began. Thank you for your hard work in performing every night. I’m a massage therapist and just want to move to a Granada and start a business massaging flamenco dancers feet lol.
I spent two nights in Granada and was advised by a friend to not miss a Flamenco Show in Las Cuevas. I took a taxi after dinner to the hills over looking the city to Cuevas Los Tarantos. Since I already had eaten I chose not to take the dinner there, although the food looked great. There were two shows each night, so I chose the first performance. I ordered a beer and sat at a table with others there. The cueva is rather small, but that made for a more intimate setting. Guitar and singing filled the room as well as the rapid and staccato heel stomping of these talented dancers. I am so glad I heeded my friends advice to take in this performance.
