Experience food tours in
Lisbon with Withlocals

"We had the most incredible time with David, our tour guide. Not only is David a local but he is also knowledgeable, kind and adventuresome. He made us feel immediately at home in his city and took such pride in sharing the rich history of Lisbon and the nuances of the food and cuisine. He was open to changes based on our questions and gave us an incredible experience. We were overwhelmed by his kindness and his graciousness. Anyone who comes to Lisbon and wants to have a local tour guide should choose David. We are so grateful that we had the experience of food and culture with him on our trip to Lisbon."

"Angelo was a very informative guide telling us much about the history of Lisbon and origins of the foods we tasted. Angelo's selection of food and their locations was excellent."

"Sylvan is incredibly knowledgeable about food and wine, having worked in the wine industry for several years in different countries. He took us one a great tour of some of his favorite places in multiple neighborhoods around the city. He very expertly adjusted our tastings to accommodate our dietary restrictions. We got to taste many typical Lisbon dishes, from cheese and pata negra pork, to sweets and pastel de nata (of course). We also sampled white and red wines, as well as port. We loved it to much that we bought port to bring home and cheese and pork to share with my brother in Paris next week. Definitely recommend Sylvain's tour!"

"Alphe was an amazing host for our very large group. His demeanour and eloquence were among the best of any tour guide any of us had experienced before. Whilst our focus was on the food of Lisbon, Alphe built an intertwined narrative around the food, connecting it to the history, geology and anthropology of the city over the last few hundred years. The food component was exactly what we wanted, with an array of great local joints serving traditional food from the city. Alphe was also incredibly professional in dealing with very late provided dietary requirements. I would immediately recommend Alphe for any visitors coming to explore the city and the cuisines on offer. "

"This is the first time I’ve ever booked a tour guided by a local, and I was so impressed! I was traveling with my nephew (his first time outside the US), so I was unsure he’d enjoy or appreciate a guided tour, so I was surprised to learn he loved it as much as I did. Elisa was so knowledgable about local history & culture, and introduced us to several delicious foods. If you’ve never thought you’d enjoy sardines, you must try Portuguese grilled sardines. (My nephew enjoyed getting the chance to filet it himself). While I can’t recall the name of the restaurant, Elisa will ensure you get the very best. On our walks between destinations we learned about some of the local architecture, neighborhoods, and artists. Ask about Lisbon’s Banksy and the student of Eiffel who designed a local attraction. We finished our tour with some Ginjinha, and a stop for the city’s best Pasteis de Nata. If you’re looking for a food tour with a knowledgable, delightful and charming guide, book with Elisa right away. You’ll be glad you did. "

"We had a wonderful time with David. He took us to several spots where the food and wine were excellent. He also shared his extensive knowledge of the city and history with us along the way, as well as a few "don't bother VS definitely check it out" tourist recommendations. He was also willing to tailor the tour to meet our dietary restrictions, which was very much appreciated. Definitely would recommend WithLocals and especially David to fellow travelers. "

"This experience was beyond our expectation. A great way to start our trip in Lisbon and experience restaurants with a local who was also knowledgeable about the area and the history of Portugal. "

"Sylvan was an amazing guide who took us to the best hidden gems of Porto, Portugal. He was very knowledgeable about the history & culture of the city and more importantly, the wines. We also found Sylvan to be a lovely person as we got to know him as we meandered the back streets of the city. Highly recommend booking with Sylvan if you’re heading to Porto. "

"We had a fantastic, delicious and informative tour with Angelo! He is really knowledgeable about the foods we tasted and the history behind them, and full of information about Lisbon and Portugal. Angelo took his time with us and the pace of the tour was leisurely -- we stayed longer than the 2 hours. Afterward he sent us a recap of everything we learned, plus tips and suggestions for other places to visit. The price of the tour was really reasonable for the experience. I would 100% book this tour again, especially with Angelo, and would book other tours with Withlocals. "

"We had a lovely time with Sonia. She was responsive to messages beforehand about dietary restrictions, and was very knowledgeable about the area and its history. "
