It needs a minimum number of guests to run, and the route is not for reduced mobility. 4.52 from 387 reviews. ## Overview In this tour you will be able to experience it firsthand at a traditional fado restaurant. We will start our Fado tour by wandering through the alleys and windy streets on a walking tour through Mouraria and Alfama (1h approx), where you can get to know the working class neighborhoods and streets where Fado was born. Our guide will explain to you the history and the cultural importance of Fado, and how it shaped mentalities in Portugal and the portuguese own sense of identity. We'll end the tour at a traditional Fado house where we'll listen to the heartfelt melodies of Fado. Lose yourself in the atmosphere and mood of this typical Portuguese music genre played by the Portuguese guitar and characterized by mournful, heartbreaking lyrics. While you enjoy the music, we will also provide you with a typical Portuguese dinner. Homemade food, portuguese wine, and an amazing environment are the keys to any good Portuguese evening. Good understanding of Portuguese or English is necessary. ## Before you book - Meeting point: Departure Point: Reception of Lisbon… - Starts 19:00: one departure a day - Food included: One drink ## Key facts - Price: from €55 per person - Duration: 4h - Rating: 4.52/5 from 387 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Recommended by 87% of travellers (share of four- and five-star reviews) - Operator: Lisbon Destination Tours ## What's included - Couvert (bread, chorizo, olives); Main (grilled chicken, mixed meat, cod with cream, or octopus rice); Dessert of the day; Drink (water, wine, beer, or soft drink).
