- Stuart T0 contributionsBrilliant first activityHumberto took us on a fantastic tour through parts of the city we would typically not have seen.

Would definitely recommend!Written 3 April 2023
- nathalie14880 contributionsA special walk out of the mainstreamThis walk was a very special experience for us! We learned a lot about Lisbon, especially about things which are not mainstream.

The Fado experience hosted by Humberto is wonderful. It gets really emotional as you deep dive into the Fado's history and experience top musicians playing it with their heart and souls.
We had the privilege to join the Fado experience with our family, and on top of the music and history, we got to know other participants and create a very good connection with them, with the musicians and with Humberto, our event host. Also, the tapas and wines served were excellent! :)
Thank you very much for the great time!!

Humberto is a gem. His cultural knowledge and passion for his city and its treasures are something every visitor of Lisbon needs to experience. I’d take this tour again... the musicians and the food are also top notch.
Also, this is a good tour for people who want to experience fado but can’t necessarily walk a lot or stay out late at the fado bars of Alfama.

I 100% recommend that anyone coming to Lisbon signs up for this experience. Humberto provides a fun and intimate setting to learn the history of fado, enjoy a private (and terrific) fado concert, and get to know other travelers over drinks and food. The experience exceeded any expectations I had. Humberto was friendly and knowledgeable, and created a terrific atmosphere. The musicians were among the best I heard throughout my time in Lisbon. Don't miss out on this experience!

This educational and highly entertaining event is a must do! It was, by far, our best night in Lisbon. Humberto made the group comfortable, provided history and background to understand Fado, and provided excellent wine and a great sense of community to all in attendance. The musical performance was spectacular! Filipa’s voice is stunning and the guitarists were awesome. Who knew…we came away in love with Fado. This is a must do to understand Fado and have a relaxing and intimate small group gathering. Humberto is the best!!!

Humberto provides a very intimate and comfortable experience for those who want to experience Fado and really learn about the History and the meaning of the music. The musicians were incredibly talented and kind. On top of it, the food was so good that Humberto prepared for us. Well worth the money!

Humberto is a super friendly, passionate expert on fado who leads a fantastic experience! It seems extremely authentic and uncommercial, and really is aimed at getting the group to be as crazy about fado as he is! The musicians and singer were wonderful and really top quality, in an intimate setting with lovely snacks and atmosphere---would absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants to learn about fado, or is interested in a jumping off point to explore more on their own!

Humberto is charismatic and well educated on the topic of Fado. He shared his personal experiences as well as interesting history of Fado. We were impressed that he welcomed each guess by name. The performance was outstanding and we share wine, cheese, olives, bread and Portuguese chorizo personally flamed by Humberto in front of us. It was quite impressive. We were fortunate enough to make friendship with other guess as well with Humberto himself. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Lisbon.

This was one of the best experiences I have ever had while travelling and I have travelled very extensively. The musicians and singer were professionals, the performance was excellent quality, Fado history and current Fado was explained to us, the history and story of each song was explained to us. It was just perfect and worth every cent. Humberto was very personable and made everyone very welcome. The venue was in a private setting with brilliant acoustics, the singer stayed behind to answer questions and share her story. We had excellent and very generous snacks and great wine- we didn’t need dinner. On our way home we called in to some other venues with Fado and it was not comparable. We were not rushed to go home and we really enjoyed the company of travellers from around the world. I feel like we’ve had a truly unique experience and I’m so glad I chose this.

We were a group of four visiting from Chicago and attended this event in last week of December 2019.
There were twenty other attendees besides us at this event. This event was very well organized and precisely executed by the host Humberto. The show is a balanced mix of Music, culture and history.The host went above and beyond in paying personal attention in making us all welcome and entertained with a unique blend information and humor.
I am an artist and I really appreciated watching Fado in this unique setting with amazingly talented artists. The host, explained the brief meaning of each Fado composition enabling us to enjoy it more.
I would definitely recommend this event to anyone who is interested in a genuine Fado experience with a quick cultural interaction with lovely Portuguese folks.
