Overview

Fado is central to Lisbon's cultural identity, but finding an authentic performance—rather than a tourist-facing show—can be tricky. This small-group walking tour moves through Lisbon's historic streets with a fadista (fado singer) guide who performs live in public squares and local taverns along the route. The tour ends at a traditional fado house, where Portuguese appetizers and wine are included alongside a live performance.
  • Cover ground with ease as a local guide leads the way
  • Listen to moving songs performed in local taverns and public squares
  • Gain behind-the-scenes insights from a real fado performer
  • A small group means a more intimate experience

A very immersive experience into the world and history of Fado. Highly recommend for something a little different and unique. Our guide Pippa was passionate and clearly loved Fado and this showed in her delivery during the tour.
