Your experience
Stop 1
Your hosts will be holding a yellow "Carpe Diem Tours" sign in front of Supremo Tribunal de Justiça

Follow your expert guide through Baixa to a cosy tavern specialising in flavour-packed Portuguese petiscos. Here, you’ll try favourites like freshly grilled chouriço and bacalhau à Brás, perfectly paired with local wine.

Next, we'll stop at a traditional Portuguese seafood restaurant for grilled sardines and seafood rice. The best part? You'll wash it all down with a glass of the iconic Vinho Verde.
Stop 4
After a sit-down meal, dive into Portuguese street food with the iconic bifana, a garlic- and wine-simmered steak sandwich. Save room for a crispy coxinha or croqueta, best enjoyed with an ice-cold beer.
Stop 5
We’ll stop at a historic liquor shop dating back to 1890 to try Portugal’s beloved Ginjinha, a sour cherry liqueur that perfectly preps your palate for the final sweet treat.
