A Slice of Lisbon's Fado and Food

Journey through history in the cobblestone alleys of Mouraria and Alfama in Lisbon. The guided walking tour will take you through the narrow streets, breathtaking viewpoints, and a Fado house for an authentic Portuguese dinner.

Take in Mouraria’s vibrant street art and tucked-away lanes, and listen to Moorish legends and multicultural stories from the English-speaking guide. Make way to Alfama’s Castle Hill viewpoint, offering scenic views of the city’s skyline and ancient stories of kings and conquerors. At the Portas do Sol viewpoint, watch the charming terracotta-tiled rooftops stretch into the horizon as the Tagus River sparkles below.

A Feast for the Senses

As the evening descends, make your way to a cozy Fado house for a sumptuous traditional dinner. Begin your meal with an array of starters such as chorizo, codfish pastries, olives, ham, and crusty bread. Savor your choice of a main course among 5 options of mixed meats, grilled chicken, creamy codfish, octopus rice, or a vegetarian delight. Wash it down with a complimentary wine and save room for an indulgent dessert as Fado's melancholic melodies play in the background.
