How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Forget dashing across the city (no one likes to rush here), you’ll lazily eat and drink your way around Lisbon with one of our local Lisbon hosts, which in our eyes is the best way to explore.
In the dreamy, hillside neighborhoods of Mouraria and Alfama, you’ll experience Lisbon life how it should be lived - that is to say full of long lunches of grilled seafood, endless plates of Portuguese petiscos, stopping by tascas where you can grab the house specialty, and timing a visit to a bakery at just the right glorious moment when Pastéis de nata emerge from the oven.
Try freshly grilled octopus, regional sheep’s milk cheeses, specialty grilled sardines, pastéis de bacalhau, and a surprising dish or two from a restaurant serving authentic Angolan cuisine - we bet you weren’t expecting that!
But as a former colony of Portugal, the flavors of West Africa are sprinkled throughout the city if you know where to look.
There’s nothing better than discovering a new culture through its food, and we’re sure you’ll agree that everything tastes better in the sunshine.

13000 steps later on a hot August Sunday Pedro mixed architecture history and some tasty treats. He made us appreciate the earthquake in 1700s, 1974 revolution as well as lisbons beauty. Thankyou

We enjoyed our time with Ricardo. From the instant he introduced himself at the dock to the moment we said goodbye at the end of our tour, we felt his personal touch. He took great care in selecting small, intimate neighborhood spots to share with us. We tasted foods from all regions of Portugal and have often reviewed the video of the flaming chorizo brought to our table. We are now fans forever of Portuguese green wine! Thank you Ricardo!
