Additional Information

Let’s kick off our journey at one of Porto’s most characteristic eateries, where we can sample Bolinhos de Bacalhau accompanied by a Beirão shot, a traditional Portuguese liquor.

Next, we will stroll through the Jewish district to gain insight into our forthcoming delicacy: Alheira. In Picota, we’ll savour one of the city’s most significant dishes, owing to its rich history. The perfect pairing for Alheira is Green Wine.

Moving on, we’ll sample Bifana, a petite sandwich filled with meat and its juice, embellished with tomatoes and a subtle spicy kick! The ideal accompaniment is a local beer…Super Bock.

Finally, we will wrap up at Restaurante Maria Odete. Here you will be presented with a menu teeming with traditional dishes, like assorted cheeses and chorizos, with Codfish as the star attraction, all washed down with Douro Wine.

But wait, there’s more! Save some room for dessert, which we serve with Port Wine.

Ultimately, come with the mindset of not only relishing the local flavours but also to dive deep into the city’s rich history, culture, and culinary arts. Expect lots of fun food talk!

Best excursion ever! - Marianna, our guide, was beyond amazing! Her warmth was equal to her knowledge. Being a Spanish Jew with a familial history in Portugal, I was so intrigued when Marianna told us the story of “Jewish Sausage”. She was sensitive and respectful explaining the history of Judaism in Portugal. The four of us are New Yorkers and we had an amazing couple from the UK join us. We were the perfect group! I could honestly say it was one of my best excursions ever in my travels! Obrigada, Marianna!

Great tour, but… - Wonderful tour with Rita! She shared some history of Porto and of the food items chosen. Loved every stop and every meal. However, my husband and I were sick the next day due to something we ate.

Great introduction to Portuguese food - Enjoyed the food. Got to taste some interesting food. Had cod in 2 different dishes. Got to hear about how our guide had these same foods normally in her life. Really enjoyed the cod dish at Maria Odete that used unique Portuguese potato chips. Definately enough food to be full and specific Portuguese liquor, green wine, Super Bock (because we were in Northern Portugal 😆) , wine and port. There were only 4 people on this tour which was really nice. Definitely recommend others to take tour.
