Description
The Evening Classic Food Tour is probably the closest thing you will find to a "crash course" on Portuguese cuisine! During your Evening Food Tour you will visit 3/4 different restaurants/taverns in the Algarve, and taste around 10 of the most traditional dishes in Portugal. The Morning Market Tour offers a chance as well to visit one of the town's markets prior to your food tour, so if you are also looking for a great insight on local food and its ingredients, you can join us on our first tour of the day.

Fun little tour in Old Town Lagos. Our guide was informative and entertaining, and she shared some hidden dining jewels with us. I would definitely go again. I only wish we could have done this sooner than our last night.
