10 Wine Tastings in Lisbon Worth Booking

1.Live Fado Show with Port Wine in Historic Center

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 4,166 reviews · from $17Our pick

Spend 50 minutes at Lisboa em Fado in central Baixa, hearing award-winning singers with Portuguese and classic guitar, without microphones. Short English introductions with Portuguese subtitles explain Fado, its artists, and instruments. Your ticket includes Port wine or juice.

“I had a great time. It was a nice way to be introduced to the culture of Fado music without committing to a multi-hour long dinner and show. The music was beautiful, the performers were engaging, the venue was intimate, and I appreciated the videos that explained a little more for beginners. It seemed to keep the full flavor of the tradition for the Portuguese in the audience, but also give good explanation for us newcomers. Thanks!”

“Pas op voor deze plek! Mijn partner en ik hadden een paardrijtocht met wijnproeverij geboekt, maar de ervaring was verschrikkelijk. Toen we aankwamen, werden we begroet door twee jonge mannen waarvan er één alleen Portugees sprak en de ander gebrekkig Engels. We kregen weinig tot geen uitleg over de activiteit. De paardrijtocht duurde veel te lang en was saai. Daarna was de zogenaamde "wijnproeverij". Het bleek gewoon een goedkope fles wijn te zijn met een paar plakjes ham.
