From the moment we were picked up on time we knew it would be good. The guide had a genuine interest in his country,city and Fado music.The show had great meaning and depth to the performance.

We were the only two participants to this tour, which made it very personal. The guide, Ines, was very pleasant, enthusiastic and knowledgeable and led us to all the objectives of this tour. We had a good time and nice experience. We highly recommend this tour.

Doing what: Lisbon Sunset Small-Group Walking Tour with Fado Performance
Our Fado tour was more than I expected. Our guide was knowledgable and the tour took us to parts of the city we would not have seen on our own. I would recommend this tour.

This was a definite hiighlight of our visit. The tour of the city by night compliments the day tour as you now see the monuments lit up for the evening. The commentary was excellent. We really enjoyed the Fado show which was performed by 3 performers. In addition there was also a folk dance show in addition to the Fado music. The restaurant decor was an excellent choice and the meal was pleasantly well prepared and filling. We definitely recomment this experience to all first time visitors to Lisbon.

Doing what: Lisbon Sunset Small-Group Walking Tour with Fado Performance
This tour was a really great way to learn about Lisbon. We took the tour on our first night and got a great feel for the city. Our guide took us to places that we would have never known about. Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We did not get to see the sunset with our glass of wine as promised on the tour because of the reservation at the Fado restaurant. The food was not good at the restaurant, so I would have preferred having a glass of wine and watching the sunset instead. But overall, I would still do it again and recommend this trip.

The entertainment was great, the staff at the restaurant were very friendly and obliging. It says that you will be picked up at 7.30 but the contact person told me that it was meant to be 8.30. The driver and guide were very friendly and companionable. We did this on our first evening in Lisbon and it is great for the atmosphere and giving you an over all impression

Very tasty food served in the Fado restaurant and -above all- excellent the Fado music and dancers. Fado music is so nice and charming as the Tango for Argentina (I love BOTH).
What was not so brillant was the your guide speaking about Lisbon at night, it was a little boring and almost he did not allow any question

They pick up us at the Hotel but didn't take us back. We had to take a taxi.

The bus pick up and return service was good. The restaurant was not very good - food quality was below average and they had us packed in there so tight we could hardly turn. Their tables were also very small.

This was not such a great tour. The tour guide did not like her job you can obviously tell. Everything was rushed. It was as if they got your money already, so they don't really care.

Don't even bother. The tour operators while friendly were completely disorganized. The tour consisted of driving around in the coach passing by the sites mentioned at a speed where you could barely get a view let alone any pictures. If you're looking to get pictures of the sites on this tour, keep your camera in its case, as I mentioned you DRIVE by the sites, you will not leave the coach until you reach the restaurant. The restaurant charming, staff and performers put allot of effort into the evening but the food and production line feel left me feeling like I was being rushed. All in all the value just isn't in this tour. If you want a driving tour of the city, you can hire a taxi and get the same result at a fraction of the cost. If you want a more enjoyable Fado experience, ask your hotel for a location that locals frequent, not a location the bus and boat loads go to. Viator, please adjust your description of the tour, had I known I would not get off the coach to see the sites I would have signed up for a different tour. I am seriously disappointed, not in the money spent but the time Ive lost on this tour when I could have spent it on something more memorable.
