What a great way to see the sights and experience the best food that Lisbon has to offer. Simply delicious. Our guide, Camila, was absolutely lovely. Highly recommend this tour and guide!
Lovely walk with Ricardo. Good food, good wine and beer and good conversation. Great way to get a foot in to the complex world of Portuguese food culture and history .
We had an amazing tour with Leonardo. He was so excited to be able to show us the history which we would not have discovered on our own and all the food was delicious.
Our afternoon food tour with Camilla was far more than just about food!!! We learned about the history of the Baixa and the Mouraria neighborhoods which sheds an informative light on the foods, wines & the customs of old Lisbon.

Eduardo
Born and raised in Portugal. From the mountain of Sintra right to your table!
My favorite thing to eat is rotisserie chicken. Simple but hard to beat.
The best advice I've ever been given for Lisbon is "Look for handwritten menus. Even better if they're written on a disposable paper towel''!
Sara
Originally from Porto, living in Lisbon since 2016.
Favorite dish will have to be a good Duck Rice (Arroz de Pato)
Although Lisbon is beautiful inside and out always look for the open doors in the buildings, you might find some of the most amazing undiscovered monuments.
Fred
Born and raised in Lisbon, a true "Alfacinha"
My favorite Portuguese dish is a Bitoque: steak with a fried egg served on top with a side of french fries and rice
When in Lisbon, explore Alfama, Belém and Sintra as well as indulging in our lovely food
Camila
Born in Brazil and living in Portugal since 2001
My favorite food is grilled octopus!
Walk and eat as much as possible in Portugal. There's always some story behind each building and dish!
Catarina
Born in "a garden planted by the sea" also known as Portugal.
What I love about Portuguese cuisine is the freshness of the ingredients which change every season. My favorite summer food is grilled sardines with salad.
The best way to learn about a country is through its people. Go to a farmers market, talk to strangers and experience the variety of local vegetables and fruits.
