Not just anywhere, but in a traditional grill restaurant that combines the authentic essence of Spanish cuisine with contemporary touches.

It is not just music or dance; it is a profound expression of the Spanish peopleยดs character, a unique language conveyed through notes and body movements. Flamenco is pure passion and feeling , artistically accompanied by guitars, castanets, percussion, clapping, and the frenetic and resonant footwork. We cannot forget the timeless beauty of the flamenco dresses , iconic and constantly evolving, yet always true to their roots. The evening will begin with a delicious dinner , and once we have our glass of sangria in hand, a group of dancers, singers, and musicians, on a nearby stage, will make us feel the full passion and power of flamenco . They will showcase few of its most well-known artistic forms: bulerรญas, seguidillas, fandangos, and sevillanas. Donยดt miss the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in this fusion of flamenco art and rich Spanish cuisine , one of the most diverse in the world! Awaken your emotions and let yourself be carried away by the soul of flamenco, the singing, the clapping, and the dancing on this musical journey. - Transportation by bus from the hotel to the restaurant; - Excursion managed by an Europamundo guide; - Dinner with 2 courses and dessert, with wine, water or sangria at your choice; - Flamenco show with tables close to the stage; - Transportation by bus from the restaurant to the hotel; - Show duration: 1:15 h.. 10 number of people required.

ANTONIO GAUDI (1H 50MIN)(60 EUR) La Sagrada Familia OF ANTONI GAUDร The Holy Family building proposes one of the most exciting experiences possible today, integrating us in the vision of a genius, Antoni Gaudรญ, capable of imagining at the beginning of the 20th century a building that incorporated the viewer in the process of Divine Creation, and made for almost 150 years, successive generations were involved in his dream. Something different, impossible to find anywhere else, a living element that evolves as it is concluded, together with the feelings of those who visit it and know it in depth. A monumental complex impossible to compare: a complex architectural project, a world heritage site, on whose exterior stand out its 18 towers with more than 100 meters high; its three thematic facades where Life, Death and Glory are represented by innumerable statues and symbologies based on nature and the Gospels; an interior space that allows the spiritual communion of those who enter, transferred by Gaudรญ to a Mediterranean forest in which the light filters with different tonalities through its stained glass windows, bathing the inclined columns branched like trees. - Entrance ticket to the Basilica de la Sagrada Familia - Entrance through the priority lane, to eliminate waiting time - The visit is conducted by an authorized and specialized guide - Audio devices to ensure that all participants can hear the guide throughout the tour - Transportation by bus to the city centre, where you will have time on your own.. 20 number of people required.
