Kind of wish I’d done the food tour at the beginning of mt trip instead of the end!

Agathe was a fantastic tour guide - provided the best food tour we've ever been on (including other Devour tours). She was incredibly knowledgeable of the food + history of Lisbon and shared a trove of super interesting facts and info about each place we ate at + sites along the way. Thanks Agathe!

Great

The overall tour was fantastic. Everyone on the tour was fun, which made it nice. It’s just interesting to try all the different local foods and get a little history as well as a layout of the land so overall I think they’re very very wonderful tours you guys do a great job and you’re very helpful.

Great

We only had a limited time in Lisbon and really wanted to do a Walks tour since we've done them before. The Dovour Tour was an interesting way to gather a bit of history and learn more about the food we'd been eating during our stay in Portugal. We tried several things we wouldn't have -- including a sardine! We had no idea they can grow to be quite large and then grilled. We also learned a bit of history of Lisbon and saw some of the views people wait in line for ages to see (thanks to our guide who knew all of the tips and tricks!). The Devour tours clearly lean more into the food rather than the history, so just be prepared for that! It's not your typical tour but it's still very much worth your time.

We have found food tours to provide us with the most authentic introduction to a city, with insight into the culture, community, history, people, and food/beverage. This was no exception! Raquel did an outstanding job. We have already recommended this tour to others and will continue to do so.
