Our guide RIta was fabulous! Great knowledge, great enthusiasm, a true native of the city. The same goes for our Fado singer João who was with us the entire walking part of the tour. A great experience.
The Fado restaurant at the end was unfortunately too touristy. The food served (included in the tour) was not outstanding but good, but the female fado singer did not come across as very authentic. The second singer, a male, left a better impression, but nowhere near the charisma of João.
The tour can definitely be highly recommended, despite the shortcomings of the restaurant portion.
