Without a doubt a Fado is a must see for people visiting Porto! Fado is a music genre truly born within the soul of the Portuguese people. It is a story about Portuguese history, and whilst many different types of Fado exist they are all characterised by their mournful melodies and melancholic lyrics.
On our Fado Tour, you will enjoy a true magical Fado Experience, in a true fado house and restaurant.

Violetta was an excellent guide. Pick up at hotel was on time (even a little early). The group was 4 people (an American couple and us (from Canada). Violetta took us on a tour of the Porto shoreline and at the same time explained the history of Fado, giving us some insight into what we would hear that evening. The dinner was good and the service was excellent. They served excellent wine with the meal. The Fado performers were excellent. All in all, it was a great evening and well worth the cost.

The music was exceptional. It was our first Fado experience but all the music was so amazing. The food was fair and the service was OK. There was a language barrier that made it difficult too. There was no offer for dessert or port in a fixed menu which was surprising. Our guide who picked us up and drove us was amazing. She was knowledgeable and fun.

First a lovely guide picked us up at the hotel in Porto. She was well versed in English and was a delight to chat with. We were taken to a cozy little restaurant where our guide introduced us to our waiter and left her number with him. It was a three course meal with wine. The fish dish that I had was delicious. There music was a treat of old Portuguese songs. First half sung by a gentleman and the second by a lady. It was an event we truly enjoyed. There is a Fado taking place in many locations but it is best to book with a company like Viator if it's your first time in Europe as it was for me.

We had the most fantastic private tour of Porto with Maria. We booked a regular tour but we were so lucky to be the only ones on this tour. Maria still surpasses the rich history of the city by adding her charm and providing all the basic information for all the monuments and viewpoints we pass by of the city. And the dinner with the fadistas was simply perfect. All the tour is worth every euro. I would recommend again and again!

I really enjoyed this show. The dinner was super and the fado show very unique. Our guide Violeta took the time to show us the city by car before dinner and a beautiful sunset. A very nice experience. Very well organized and with a very friendly guide.
