Tiago was amazing!! He did a great job explaining history, culture, architecture and food of the area. He was extremely personable and made us feel very comfortable. We really feel like we have gained a friend. This tour is highly recommended, especially with Tiago.

Our family had an amazing experience on the Context Travel Food Tour in Lisbon—it was the perfect way to explore the city's culture together. The tastings were a hit with everyone. Our kids loved trying pastéis de nata, while we enjoyed the local Ginja and the rich flavors of Portuguese cheeses and meats.
Our guide, Tiago, was warm, engaging, and fantastic at keeping our kids (ages 9, 11, and 14) interested with fun stories and interactive moments. Tiago made sure there was something for everyone—even explaining the dishes in a way that the kids could understand and get excited about.
Walking through the charming streets of Lisbon, we learned so much about the city's history and how it shaped the food we were tasting. The small group size made it feel intimate, like we were getting an insider's tour rather than just scratching the surface.
What made this tour truly exceptional was our charismatic guide. Tiago’s warmth and engaging demeanor made it easy for him to connect with everyone, from adults to children. It felt more like chatting with a passionate local eager to unveil the city’s hidden gems than just a typical tour. By the end, we walked away not only satisfied by the incredible food but also with a profound appreciation for Lisbon’s lively culinary scene. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone exploring the city! Ask for Tiago if you do the tour, he is the best!
