Rodrigo was an amazing tour guide! Incredibly friendly and knowledgable and a true joy to be around. The food we tried was some of the best we had on our trip so far and he accommodated dietary restrictions. Rodrigo was also so helpful with all our questions about the rest of our trip! Well worth it to have the insiders perspective of Lisbon food. Thank you Joao and Rodrigo!!!
We had a great and authentic evening with Joao. He shared his broad knowledge about portuguese history and food with us. We also got to know "his" neighborhood and made it unforgettable for us. The food was genuine and excellent, and we highly recommend to start the tour very hungry.
