This is a must do in Porto. The fado music was wonderful and well explained by the singer. The location in the wine cellar makes it more special. The tour was sorry but very informative with an excellent guide.

Truly amazing experience, the fado singer was operatic and so knowledgeable about what fado was and its heritage.hearing fado in a wine cellar just made it feel even more special. They spoke in depth about the heritage and how it runs in some families. The mother of the fado singer was also there, and they both gave a spontaneous show together. Such an amazing experience, and the port was truly amazing too! The dinner was lovely, great atmosphere! If you’re looking for fado, this would be the perfect experience for you!
