10/10!
Sofia was a great guide. The food tour was well-curated with mixture of food spots popular to tourists and places locals frequent to. We were also given an up close experience of how food is prepared get an understanding of how food is intertwined with their culture. Definitely a tour worth taking if you’re around Lisbon area

Don’t hesitate & book Sofia!!! BEST tour
This was probably one of the best private tours I’ve been on in Europe! I went with my husband, mom and sister, all of us agreed it was the best. Sofia is extremely funny, easy going and a joy to spend the day with! I don’t think we had an awkward moment in conversation once! We laughed, ate and drank as if we were all old friends! she was extremely accommodating when we told her we had plans the morning of in a different part of Lisbon that we had planned and completely customized the tour to that part of the city. And it did not disappoint!! She took us to all different places, local places for sure that were filled with good food and character. Even had history points, along with beautiful view points as we walked to our next restaurant. Very knowledgeable about the history of the city & the people who made it was it is. If you want an EXCELLENT TOUR with great food, drinks and company ~BOOK WITH SOFIA!!!
Response from the operator: 💚💚💚💚 It was a memorable afternoon! I am happy I could show you my beautiful city :)

Sofia did an excellent...
Sofia did an excellent job showing us the local culture and food experience on our first day in Lisbon. It was like experiencing the town with a local resident. Excellent food and drink stops with local culture knowledge.

Best food tour in Lisbon!
What a night! What a tour, great company and food! Spend my 50th birthday with Sophia and her food tour and can't think of a better way to do it. We had a fantastic evening with great food and drinks in the most fantastic spaces. Can't think of better way to enjoy authentic local delicacies. Great fun and a night full of joy and belly aching laughter. Thank you Sophia, you were fantastic.
Response from the operator: Thank you 🩷 I am happy I was part of that special occasion :)

Amazing Food and Host! Thank you!
Sofia is a great tour guide! I loved the tour so much that I went twice during my trip to Lisbon. The food was diverse and unique, and we also got to explore the city on foot in between each restaurant. Sofia is knowledgeable about the history of both the food and the city, and I learned a lot about the culture and heritage of Lisbon. Saúde!
Response from the operator: You are more than welcome for a third one 😅 🩷

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time cost?
+
Prices start at $45 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 Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time 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 Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 26 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 Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time?
+
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 Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time 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 Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time?
+
Around 9 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 Private Lisbon Food Tour: One Bite, One Story at a Time 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.
