Additional Information
Embark on this extraordinary journey with us as we guide you through the city’s lively soul and inspiring narratives that encapsulate the essence of Saudade, a sentiment that epitomises the Portuguese spirit. Our walking tour sets the stage for an authentic Portuguese encounter, marked by the announcement ‘Silêncio que se vai cantar o Fado!’ or ‘Silence! Fado is about to be sung!’, all while relishing a sumptuous, traditional dinner and drinks. Fado represents the essence of raw emotion, and comprehension of the local language isn’t a prerequisite to appreciate and resonate with it. Our guide, however, will always be on hand to provide additional insights into the performances. Sit back, tap into your inner wordsmith as you explore the city, resonate with the sounds of a UNESCO World Heritage, and savour a traditional Portuguese meal. This tour promises to stimulate all your senses deeply. Don’t let this opportunity pass! Embrace it and delve into the heart of Portugal!

A must have Porto Experience - Give Emelia a raise! She was great guide and provided a lot of useful information on the city. She was helpful, enthusiastic, answered all our questions and stuck with us the whole time. Fado was absolutely fantastic and memorable and a great way to end our last night in Porto. The restaurant chosen was delicious. I thought I hated seafood but this restaurant changed my mind. Im glad I chose this tour.

Porto Tour with Food, Wine and Fado - This was our first visit to Porto and we were only there for a day. The evening with our guide Manuela was a perfect mixture of an informative guided tour followed by a delicious dinner and a fado show. Manuela was lively and entertaining as she shared the history of the Porto area. During the Fado show, she was able to translate the lyrics of the emotional haunting fado. We felt we were treated to a cultural experience we will not soon forget. We want to come back and stay longer the next time!

You can enjoy Fado without a tour, but this tour is a great enhancement - Excellent experience. Daniela was engaging and knowledgeable about Fado. On the walk to the Fado venue she told us about the history and what to expect regarding Fado, as well as spicing the conversation up with anecdotes about the area in Porto we were in. During the concert (not really a concert, but with Fado you pay attention) she wrote out the lyrics and during breaks translated the songs for us. You can enjoy fado without this but this tour is well worth it.

Wonderful Evening - A very enjoyable evening walk, learning the history of Fado followed by a lovely dinner and then the Fado, performed by a male and female singer. Joanna was very knowledgable and brought the history of Fado (and Portugal) to life.
