Beautiful experience! - Beautiful experience! There were 4 gentlemen playing string instruments and two singers. It was our first fado experience so I can’t compare it to anything. But it was very enjoyable and reasonably priced. The 1 hr is also a perfect amount of time.

A beautiful discovery to recommend - On the advice of a friend I booked to see Carla Cortez. It was a real revelation, you feel the emotion and even if you don't understand the lyrics, you're captivated. Carla's voice was powerful but clear, no need to force. There was also Pedro, who sang beautifully in the first part. They sang together at the end, so complementary. I recommend

A pleasant moment of immersion in Portuguese culture. - We very much enjoy the experience of listening to the fado in the Guitar House, because we have a greater proximity with the musicians and singers, in addition to the space that favors listening to the lyrics of the songs, due to silence and the audience being attentive to the show. As a courtesy they serve us a glass of Porto wine. I was thrilled by the songs, very good singers and musicians.

Fantastic experience. - Great, I went twice. High standard of singing and all of the musicians blended very well. It was a pleasure to hear. I went to other fado shows in Porto, but this was the best. Friendly, welcoming. The variety of the instruments had a great contrast with one another. I was most impressed by the whole experience. Thank you.

Don't miss this show at your Porto visit! - Very skilled musicians and singers! It was a fantastic performance. Everything was just right. They even let us enjoy a delicious port wine during the short break (included). Super well organized. We got perfect seats, probably because we looked good (?), arrived early, or booked online in advance (we'll never know). The online booking was also discounted when we booked. So, book in advance on your phone. The value was far greater than the price, in our book. Don't miss this show when you are visiting Porto! According to us, it's well worth the time and money.

Good performers - On the advice of our hotel, we booked a show at this property, and with a few dozen people we witnessed singing and sound of Portuguese guitars, which we were very satisfied with, because the performers were all very good, recommended.
