About this activity

Start your Lisbon walking tour by joining a local guide in one of the city's most imposing squares, the Praça do Martim Moniz. This famous landmark honors a nobleman that sacrifices his own life to help the conquering of Lisbon to the moors in 1147 and is an apt starting point for this tour through Lisbon’s musical and culinary heritage, because is now the home a fusion market that celebrates the multiculturalism of the Neighborhood of Mouraria

To kick this Lisbon evening tour off with even more of a bang, you'll have the chance to try a sip of Ginjinha, Lisbon’s trademark liqueur, made from sour cherries and sold as medicine since 1840. For this we'll be in the old district of Mouraria, listening to Fado music in a local tavern. Walk around in one of the oldest areas of Lisbon, take in sweeping views and stop for a break to admire the sunset over this intoxicating city from the viewpoints of the Castle Hills, some of the city’s best-kept secrets.

Next, travel deep into the soul of Lisbon while exploring the Alfama neighborhood. This is the oldest quarter in the city, dating back to the Moorish occupation of Lisbon. Explore Alfama’s small squares, rustic buildings and dark alleyways as you wander along the winding, cobblestone streets. Stop to breathe in the exciting atmosphere as the local taverns and music venues come to life for another evening of melodic tunes and gastronomic delights.

Stop to reflect on the beauty of the River Tagus then continue on to finish this Lisbon walking tour in an old Palace that serves up daily doses of delicious food and Fado music to enthusiastic audiences.

Indulge in a dinner of traditional Portuguese food and wine while appreciating a performance of Fado from one of the most famous houses, a quintessential Lisbon experience that you won’t get on other Lisbon tours! What a fitting finale to this indulgent Lisbon walking tour extravaganza.

This is a great tour for your first night in Lisbon. It keeps you up, gives you a sense of the historic area and things you may decide to go back to and then ends with Tapas and a traditional Fado performance.

Madelena led our tour by sheer force of personality, and kept us enthralled the entire time! Her thorough knowledge of the neighborhoods we walked through and her experience as a tour guide imparted us, not only with facts, but with a true flavor of the area and a history and appreciation of Fado. She worked hard to ensure that we had a lovely evening and even gave us her phone number in case we had any other questions or even problems. Our dinner was delicious, the walk through the neighborhoods merry, and the music . . . sublime. A guided experience, shared with newly met visitors, led by an experienced and ebullient guide enabled us to experience so much more than a trip up the hill ourselves.

So good! Food was fantastic! Our guide actually had a better voice than the performers I heard her singing along, but the night was a great experience!

What a fun and informative evening! Walking through the old neighborhoods, sampling the cherry liquor, riding the trolley, dining at a Fado bar -- this tour was a perfect complement to the daytime general tour of Lisbon. The guide was outstanding and gave us a lot of history, culture, and current events.
