We will taste great Portuguese dishes that thousands of locals eat every day yet don't come across in other countries. We also get to know the origin of the dishes. We visited several locations, so we had the opportunity to discover sights during the walk.

Additional drinks
We travel with a small group of 2-8 people, so there is always an opportunity to chat and ask questions. At the beginning of the tour, we mainly walked, we ate our meals on the street, as the locals would do. In the second half of the tour, we visited a tavern to try some typical dishes.
Our meeting place is at the edge of Rossio Square, at the corner of Rua dos Sapateiros, under the Arch of Bandeira. The statue in the middle of Rossio square looks right at the arch, which is a yellow building. I will have a "Tour Guide Attila" sign hanging around my neck, and I usually wear a green baseball cap.
Portuguese national cuisine contains pork, alcohol, gluten, and other allergens. Since shared meals are also included in the program, it is difficult to solve individual needs within a small group without affecting our fellow passengers. A pork-free or vegetarian tour offering a similar experience can also be organized, but in this case, please contact me before booking.
Other start times are possible, but due to the capacity of some locations, prior consultation is required.
For customized tour or different starting times please message me.
There are lucky ones who were born and grew up in Portugal, and there are those who chose this amazing country later as their home. I still consider myself lucky to be the latter one.
I'm sure there are a lot of things that I see differently from a deep-rooted local, just as there are certain things that I notice and appreciate so that I can tell you about cultural differences and show you those little things that local people could take for granted but are indeed a valuable part of their lives.
