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

Memorable and Authentic Flamenco Night Our evening at Los Tarantos was one of the highlights of our time in Granada. Despite some difficulty with phone communication, they kindly let us move our reservation to the next day. On arrival, we weren’t on the list, but the staff handled it well and found space for us without issue. The show itself was powerful and full of emotion – the dancers were intense and expressive, and the live music was deeply engaging. The small cave setting adds a unique and intimate feel to the whole experience. Friendly service, great atmosphere, and a performance that truly captures the spirit of flamenco. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something genuine in Granada.
When passion meets performance, a perfect display of zambra. Amazing performance by the artists. They themselves were enjoying while performing, and this added more beauty to the dance The place is cozy and well lit.
the music is very loud, the food could be better and nobody in the staff will be so extra (and uselessly) kind to provide a high-end service to you, but this is what the real and raw flamenco experience is. and it was extremely enchanting and so intimate, i was moved by the performances
Amazing Flamenco show and dinner, fantastic atmosphere, dancers and musicians are really passionate, staff all very friendly. Great value for money too with 3 course meal included. We loved it and will return
The flamenco dancers and musicians were incredible. They had incredible synergy and skill. Note to future guests - please please put your phones and cameras away! Just enjoy the fabulous show, you probably want an authentic experience but then you ruin it by obsessing over your technology! The artists deserve your entire attention, not your probing lenses. It also is incredibly distracting for the rest of us guests.
We made our reservation through their website in a simple and trouble-free manner. When we arrived at the show, the reception was excellent: a very friendly girl attended to us, as did the waiters, who were attentive at all times. The show started in spectacular fashion, managing to excite us to the point of giving us goosebumps. However, the experience was marred when a spontaneous member of the audience, visibly intoxicated, burst onto the stage and spent 20 minutes wandering around pointlessly, taking away from the seriousness and professionalism of the show. The reaction of the real artists said it all: discomfort and frustration in the face of a situation that bordered on the absurd. It is a shame that a place as special as Cuevas Los Tarantos is affected by this type of incident. Therefore, we urge the organization to prevent this from happening again, since it tarnishes the efforts of true professionals. I am not leaving my five stars only because of this unfortunate episode.
