Alfama Memories - Our driver was Pedro, he stopped at some beautiful Sunset spots for pictures. We were the only customers at the restaurant for the show, so it was special. The food was a very good presentation of Portugese cuisine. Pedro was very informative on the history of Alfama. Thank you

Exciting evening of Fado - Our driver, Antonio, arrived before agreed time and has been very helpful, polite, pleasant, caring and easy to talk to throughout the whole trip. The show was delightful, beautiful voices and rich guitar music in a small lively place. The food and wine were good. We got back to the hotel full of Fado and thinking how lucky we were to have choosenTony and his company to take us on this trip. We recommend the trip, the company and most of all Antonio.

Nice Introduction to Lisbon & Alfama! - We had a really good time! The Fado musicians and singers were GREAT! Personalized attention with city knowledge from a local resident (Thanks Pako!). The only reason we rated the tour a 4 is because it would have been much better during the day.

Good Alfama and Fado experience , great guide - We had an amazing guide in Pako, very knowledgeable about the city, life in Portugal and taking us to truly lovely spots around town, including Alfama. The diner with the Fado performance had many pluses and some minuses. Food was a good taste if what Portuguese cuisine had to offer but not excellent. The Fado performance was a very nice introduction to this art form. With some of the singers a bit more engaged with the audience as others. But I would still highly recommend it.

A terrible waste of money - The "tour" was a car ride in an old dirty car, the food was unremarkable, and the music was meh. One of the Fado "singers" could NOT sing. And he was also the cook, a waiter, and the owner apparently. It was a lot of money for nothing. Just book an Uber and a dinner at a real Fado restaurant and forget this scam...

Don’t go - The experience description does not at all match what you actually get. No walking tour of Alfama, terrible food, no music bands…one singer with 2 guitar players in jeans. Not held in a true restaurant, more like trying to cram 20 people into a residential dining room. It hot and stuffy. Another couple from our hotel was there and they agreed. Very bad experience.
