Lisbon Food Tour: Petiscos and Wine Tasting

This guided food tour takes you through Lisbon's authentic neighbourhoods to discover the city's petisco culture at four carefully selected local venues. You'll sample traditional Portuguese small plates paired with regional wines, from creamy local cheeses with Port wine to slow-cooked pork with Alentejo wine, all whilst learning about Lisbon's culinary heritage from your expert guide.

The tour covers over 14 tastings and four drinks across venues that locals frequent, including traditional mercearias, family-run tascas, and neighbourhood bakeries. Each stop reveals a different aspect of Portuguese food culture, from reinvented classics like grilled octopus to the famous Pastéis de Nata served warm from a local pastry shop. Your guide speaks English, French, Spanish, or German and provides personalised recommendations for further food discoveries in the city.

Groups are limited to 10 guests maximum to maintain an intimate atmosphere as you walk through historic cobbled streets and climb Lisbon's characteristic hills. For those exploring Portugal's food scene further, consider a Porto food walking tour to compare the culinary traditions of both cities.
