Belem with Alfredo
It was a nice tour. Alfredo did his best to give us as much information as possible, and to make us feel welcome ..it took longer than it was planned to visit Belem, but Alfredo was patient till the end..and helped us to get the right bus connection to our next stop. Thanks once again :)

A low key experience to Belem
Our guide Alfredo was not on form. his delivery was hesitant and he was more interested in us buying pastries (so he could stop for a smoke) than packing in more tour experience. Tour was long drawn out and others found it equally boring.
Response from the operator: Hello Catherine, Thanks for you opinion, every comment help us to grow. Alfredo has always good reviews, if we can have more information please send us an email. Regards.

Belem tour
We took the Belem tour with Telma. She is an excellent guide. Her stories are memorable and informative and gave us an appreciation of Portuguese culture and some of the colorful characters that influenced Portugal's history. Would definitely recommend!

Lovely time in Belém
We did the walking tour in Belém with Alfredo. Having been to Belém once before without being very impressed, the guide did a good job showing the history of the places and the importance it had to Portugal in the past. Alfredo was a warm and funny guide who knew what he was talking about. Would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Lisbon Fado History Cultural Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Lisbon Fado History Cultural Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $9 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 Fado History Cultural Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Fado History Cultural Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 118 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 Fado History Cultural Walking Tour?
+
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 Fado History Cultural Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lisbon Fado History Cultural Walking Tour?
+
Around 41 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lisbon Fado History Cultural Walking Tour 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.
