Full description

Sailors, fishermen and sea merchants, often away from home, were the
pioneers of this musical genre, an emotion of longing or homesickness for
their distant loved ones.
We want to take you on a walking tour through the historical neighborhoods
of Lisbon where fado has its roots so you understand the traditional lifestyle
of the city and to feel the vibe of the city.
Walking through the most emblematic places for Fado and for “fadistas” ,
where this music genre became famous, first as the sole of Lisbon but today
a whole Portuguese identity.
We start at Bairro Alto, where Fado became famous among the high classes,
heading next to Mouraria where, according to the traditions, the first famous
fado singer was born: Severa.
Next is Alfama where Fado can be heard in every corner and where you will
have a delicious Portuguese meal and a live fado show. Silence fado will be
sung.

Vicki – United StatesAugust 22, 2024 – Verified booking
Although we were at the location specified in the email confirming the tour, the guide was not there. We called the number provided 3 times but it went to voicemail each time. Our calls were not returned. The company is now refusing to provide a refund. Terrible communication from this company resulted in our not receiving the service we paid for.

GetYourGuide traveler – SwitzerlandMarch 6, 2022 – Verified booking
Unfortunately we didn't get what we booked. We were led through the city for 1 hour, the guide played a few songs from his cell phone, dropped us off at a restaurant with fado music where there was a menu. For the price paid of 85 euros, definitely not what we booked. I would not book again.
