    A fun introduction to Lisbon’s food

    I went on this tour with my mom and sister on our second night in Lisbon, and it was such a perfect introduction to the city's food scene. Miguel took us to some great little spots we probably wouldn't have found on our own and answered all our questions about the city. We even took the ferry over to Cacilhas for Portuguese tapas and seafood, and ended up so full and a bit tipsy, it was honestly the best part. I'd highly recommend it!

    A Wonderful Food Tour in Lisbon

    We had a fantastic food tasting tour with Mariana. She brought us to some really interesting little spots we never would’ve discovered on our own. She made every tasting so much more interesting by talking about the food and its role in Lisbon’s history. She kept the tour moving at a great pace, but we never felt rushed at all. Such a lovely way to spend a couple of hours, and we would highly recommend her.

    If you like seafood, this is for you!

    Wonderful and tasty. Andre catered to our taste and customized the tour so we could have cocktails at sunset before taking the ferry to the fishing village. The restaurant was delicious and well worth it.

    A Delicious Day with Marco

    We had our best day in Lisbon on this food tour led by Marco. He thoughtfully customized the experience so it matched exactly what we were hoping for, plus a few extra stops he knew we’d love from his own experience. We tasted several truly fantastic dishes and places,and everything felt relaxed and well paced. He really went the extra mile to make sure we enjoyed every moment — highly recommend this tour, you won’t regret it.

    An unforgettable Lisbon experience

    We had a truly wonderful and engaging tour with Beatris, whose impeccable taste and deep knowledge of Lisbon’s cuisine, architecture, and history made the day exceptional. We loved her humor, stories, and personal touches that brought the city to life. It was our first guided experience, and we’re already planning to do it again — this time, we’ll be asking for Beatriz without hesitation.

    Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise cost?

    +

    Prices start at €102 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.

    Is Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise?

    +

    Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lisbon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lisbon?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lisbon?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise?

    +

    Included: 1 cup of ginja (Portuguese liqueur); Boat round-trip ticket; 3,5 hs. Private guide in your language; 3 glasses of Portuguese wine in 3 different stops; and 4 Food Tasting: lunch or dinner (depending on what option you book) in traditional restaur. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise?

    +

    Under the statue. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Lisbon & Cacilhas Private Food & Wine Tour with River Cruise if the weather is bad?
