Description

Immerse yourself fully in Portuguese traditions through food, wine, and music, and experience the passion of Fado with a hearty appetite. Your 4-stop journey begins in a typical Portuguese tavern, followed by an iconic traditional restaurant where we will share highly prized local petiscos. Next, step inside one of Lisbon’s most whimsically original century-old bars—a venue boasting a truly unforgettable atmosphere where you will savor a glass of traditional local spirits. Finally, conclude your evening in an exclusive and intimate Fado house, 'Casa de Fado'. Food and Fado are abundant in Lisbon, the tricky thing is finding the authentic places where to enjoy not just any food but great food and deeply moving professional Fado instead of tourist trap amateurs. Our mission is to take you places you are very unlikely to end-up in otherwise and offer you a taste of the highest quality Portuguese petiscos (local tapas). For those who are still confused about what this “Fado” is all about, we recommend you leave it to your heart and ears to discover. Defining Fado would be useless as each singer and every musician has their own distinctive touches and though the words are mostly sorrowful, they will surprise you with an occasional light and joyful tune. On this evening food tour you will not only taste some of Portugal’s most traditional food, you will do so in four authentic Lisbon settings, experiencing at the last stop one of the best things to do in Lisbon - listening to the greatest local singers of our generation in our Fado stop. By the end of the tour, you’ll not only have a pleasantly full stomach but a rich understanding of what it means the beautiful ”saudades” of Fado.
