Merritt was an excellent, friendly guide with superb local knowledge. She took us to places that felt very authentic and not touristy. Excellent explanation of the food and food history was provided. We all enjoyed the experience thoroughly, especially the 10 year old

What a great way to spend a morning! <br />Helena met us on time then let us through the streets of Lisbon to a number of quirky food establishments. We started with coffee and two pastries, moved onto bifana, ham and ginjinha then three lovely dishes in a local restaurant all finished with a great pastel de nata. There was loads of local history to accompany the food all clearly delivered. <br /><br />To be recommended

A great way to start the trip with an intro to Lisbon. The snack foods were better than the actual lunch, which was a bit underwhelming.
