The 10 Best Private Flamenco Shows in Barcelona

1.Private Tour: Tapas, Wine & Flamenco Show in Barcelona’s Old Town

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 317 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $290Our pick

Spend about four hours walking through Barcelona’s Born and Gothic Quarter, eating tapas and pintxos at two bars, and watching flamenco in a medieval palace. Guides such as Bosco, Mirco, Richard, Facu, and Olivia have earned praise for friendly city tours, though seating and food quality can vary.

“This tour was literally a booking service; the tour operator booked us in for tapas, dinner and a flamenco show. We could have done it ourselves. The secret sauce for this tour would have been the tour guide’s commentary on Barcelona’s history and areas however this was unfortunately lacking. Save your money and book with a different operator who values quality tour guides. This tour was not worth the money sadly.”
