Savory Sunset in LisbonKaren_F
Great walkabout tour stopping at small shops to sample cheese and ham, onward across the plaza to a popular fusion restaurant for modern Portuguese all accompanied by appropriate wines. Up the hill for sweets and history and back down for a local drink and then on to regional speciality chorizo. All the walk was accompanied by tales and history of Lisbon. It was a glorious afternoon!

My experience was excellent.
The guide took us on a truly immersive journey; each dish really had a value that went beyond just the flavors.
I highly recommend it, and if I could, I’d do it all over again!
My suggestion: add some cinnamon to your Pastéis de Nata!

Excellent experience!!!
We made this gastronomic tour in Lisbon and it was one of the highlights of our trip. The guide was extremely friendly, knew very well the history of the city and managed to explain the origin of each dish and tradition in a very interesting way. We loved to taste the fillings, the cheeses, the wine, the ginjinha and even a delicious convental candy. The stops were very well chosen and allowed to know places that we would hardly find alone. I highly recommend to those who want to discover Lisbon through its gastronomy.
