Hi I’m Ruthy! If you book my tour you may meet me, my husband Marcio or my friends Francisco, João, Héloïse,! :-)
I’m 29 and I’m a real foodie.
I live in Lisbon & I'm in love with the city, its culture & its gastronomy. That’s why I’ve founded my very own 18-tastings food experience company here, called Treasures of Lisboa.
I want to take you off the beaten paths, in Lisbon’s most narrow streets, to taste the best Portuguese dishes & drinks in authentic places. Join the fun!
Come with me and taste the best of Lisbon! Wine, charcuterie, typical pastries and many other gastronomic pearls will ensure you take in authentic and picturesque Portugal.
Get lost in a labyrinth of winding alleys, full of hidden treasures. Let yourself be transported by the soft light of Alfama and stroll through aromas and flavors that will touch all your senses. Here, gastronomy is, in its richness and authenticity, a hymn to the spirit of Lisbon.
OUR COMMITMENT IS ALSO SOCIAL:
- No plastic tour: we’re the 1st ones in Lisbon to have banished all kind of plastic from our experience.
- We respect local people: no more than 12 persons on our tour! We’re integrated in the local community: the grannies of Alfama love us ;-)
- We’re currently establishing a partnership with Re-food a community that works to eliminate food waste and hunger in each neighborhood of Lisbon. More info coming soon!
We’re proud to be the first Portuguese gastronomic tour of Alfama but we’re more than just a food tour, come and see by yourself.

The tour was terrific. Mathilde was a delightful guide. We had 18 different tastings; each typical of traditional Portuguese food. All were good, as were the stories that went along with the food. Group was a lot of fun. Highly recommend.

Here is a positive review of the Lisbon food tour:
Our Lisbon food tour was an absolute delight and one of our highlights of our trip to Portugal! Our knowledgeable and friendly guide took us to several authentic, local spots to sample the best of Lisbon's cuisine.
Between food stops, we explored some of Lisbon's most charming neighborhoods like Bairro Alto and Alfama, getting an insider's view thanks to our guide's knowledge and anecdotes. The small group size made for an intimate and unrushed experience.
If you're a foodie looking for a fun, tasty introduction to Lisbon's culinary scene and culture, I can't recommend this tour highly enough. You'll discover gems you might not find on your own and gain a whole new appreciation for Portuguese cuisine. Just be sure to arrive hungry - you'll be happily stuffed by the end! The Lisbon food tour is an absolute must-do.

An amazing experience and one I would highly recommend to anyone interested in food and drink! Bring an appetite too! The "tastings" are a decent size. Raquel, our guide, was great. She gave everyone in the group so many recommendations for restaurants in other cities, as well as recommendations for other things to see in Lisbon. And do wear walking shoes. The streets of the Alfama are very hilly and the cobbles are polished to a fairly slippery surface in some spots.

I have been on many food tours over the past 20 years and this one, was one of the best. Rachael was amazing. She seemed to go out of her way to get to know each of us individually. The food was of very high quality and great quantity. Wines at various venues were often topped up. Towards the end, she made sure that she connected with each of us about any recommendations she could give us to round out our visit to Lisbon. So GOOD!

Had such a great experience with Matilde on our food tour! The food was incredible at places we never would have found on our own, and we learned so much about the cuisine and the Alfama District. This was a highlight of our time in Lisbon!
