During a short trip to Faro we spent a lovely afternoon in the company of Telma learning about the history, culture and food from the area. We enjoyed loads of different dishes, which is definitely a positive, and there was enough for a picnic lunch the following day. Telma was entertaining and interesting and very kindly supplied us with restaurant recommendations for the rest of our trip. We would definitely recommend the tour with Telma to others.Telma's food tour

Telma war eine großartige Gadtgeberin für unsere Gruppe. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt mit ihr. Die Kostproben waren sehr vielfältig und großzügig bemessen. Es war für alle etwas dabei und es gab zusätzlich viele Snacks zum Mitnehmen. Telma hat uns einen guten Überblick über Faro vermittelt und war eine lebhafte und humorvolle Führerin. Vielen lieben Dank und alles Gute, Telma!Tolle Foodtour in Faro

We reached out to Telma to see if she could help us navigate our way through the administrative maze at the Finacas department in Faro. While we could have possibly done this ourselves, we wanted a fluent Portuguese local to assist us to insure it went a as smooth as possible. She’s such an enthusiastic and engaging person that when it was finally our turn at the window the administrative person that worked with us was so helpful that it only took us 10 minutes to straighten everything out. We had been dreading taking care of this task but Telma made it painless. If you’re looking for a tour I’m sure she would be fantastic, but if you’re looking for someone to help you navigate the maze that is the Portuguese bureaucracy don’t waste another minute, reach out to Telma and let her guide you and teach you. Telma is amazing, kind and knowledgeable

Our tour started in the rain as we met up with our guide Thelma who sheltered us with an umbrella into the market, we were treated to new and unusual but tasty treats at several stalls, Thelma was very knowledgeable in explaining everything. We had a lovely lunch and the sun came out in time for our walking tour. It was terrific, Thelma was so well versed in the history and was also so much fun. We stopped in bakeries and cafes. At the conclusion of our tour Thelma even called our driver to assure we were picked up. We would highly recommend Thelma for your tour and tasting in Faro. Delightful!

We had a great time with Thelma! She oriented us to the city and introduced us to local food and drink! She also helped us to identify a restaurant to see a performance of Fado (traditional music). Could not recommend more highly!Great way to start our trip!

Telma is an absolute pleasure- we learned a lot about Faro and local customs. Be sure to ask for restaurant recommendations as Telma knows. Highly recommend a tour or even two with Telma! A Wonderful Orientation to Faro
