“I absolutely loved this tour. The selection of restaurants and Portuguese food was excellent—thoughtful, authentic, and delicious across the board. This is easily one of the best food tours I’ve been on. Calling it a “tasting” is an understatement. The portions and wine pours were very generous, to the point where you’ll leave full and happy (pace yourself). Our guide Amanda was fantastic—warm, engaging, and knowledgeable. She shared great historical context while walking between stops, which added real depth to the experience rather than feeling like filler. If you’re even remotely interested in food, wine, or understanding Lisbon through what it eats, this tour is a must.”
