About the Food and Fado Lover Tour

EXPERIENCE PORTUGAL AT IT’S BEST ON THIS FOOD AND FADO LOVER TOUR

Fado and food are abundant in Lisbon, the tricky thing is finding the authentic places where to enjoy not just 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 dishes.

In three unique decors, you will experience the traditional Lisbon evening, tasting wines, sharing some food and listening to the beautiful ”saudades” of fado. 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.
