The Fado Show was at high quality and the restaurant refined, with delicious meals and very good serving. The guide - Mihaela - was very good for Lisbon by night.

With booking on the internet, we were concerned and Not knowing what to expect. From the moment Miguel picked us up to the time he dropped us off this tour proved to be beyond our expectation. Miguel was exceptional, the Lisbon city tour was very well planned and truly provided a wonderful oversight of what Lisbon is all about. Going thru some of the districts was like going back in time. Our last stop was the Fado dinner and show. fantastic meal and show. the restaurant served a great meal, wine was flowing and the desert to die for. Service was impeccable the folk singers were fabulous with heartfelt ballads. Would highly recommend this tour.
Thank for making our Lisbon stay memorable.

To someone that had never heard of Fado this one was a very special night I will never forget. I don’t speak any Portuguese yet the emotions and feelings were carried through the music and the incredible voice of the singers. Delicious food as well.

I have to admit I was a bit doubtful of going to watch a fado in Portugal, and wasn't sure of what to expect. But I was very pleasantly surprised and absolutely loved the experience! The food was very tasty, traditional Portuguese cuisine, very nicely cooked. The atmosphere in the restaurant was enchanting, and there seemed to be quite a few locals there, which is always a good sign. And the Fado performances were very passionate and moving. The two guitar players were great as well. It was a very enjoyable evening, felt very tempted to repeating it the following day!

We chose this tour since we wanted to experience true Fado in Lisbon without having to find our way to a venue in the Alfama and back to the hotel on our own late at night in a strange city. We were not disappointed. The five singers each did a four song set singers and along with their accompanists were exceptional. The restaurant food was tasty, probably as good as we could expect for typical local cuisine with very generous pouring of Portugese wines. The only negative would be the van tour before the Fado show. The van and guide were about an hour late so we had a rushed, drive-by tour of many interesting sites with only a few stops and photo ops before we had to hurry to get to our restaurant for the start of the Fado show.

Our driver (Nuno) was great and gave us an excellent tour. The fado performance at the restaurant was good. However, the food was unimpressive and not properly cooked. The meat in my dish was hard to eat. This was a disappointment, considering how accessible and affordable great food is in Portugal.

We were picked up from the hotel and taken on a fantistic trip round Lisbon and surrounding area for about 1 1/2 hours, our guide from cooltours was first class and showed a real passion for his city. The Fado show was in the old town in a typical old restaurant with lots of atmosphere, the singers and guitar players were good but the food which were included in the tour price were not up to an acceptable standard and spoiled the over all experience, we would have been much better off if we could have ordered from the a la carte menu.

Evening drive around our before show wasn't really necessary. Fado show was nice and the singer's were excellent.

Fado show and dinner were delightful! Driving nite tour -- underwhelming. No chance to stop to take any pictures. Guide seemed to be in a hurry to drop us off for dinner and then in a hurry to pick us up and return us to hotel.

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
