“Instead of the port wine tour, I was able to switch to the Private Lisbon tour with premium Portuguese wine and tapas tastings. Our guide Sofia was personable and informative as she took us through the neighborhoods explaining history, culture and special qualities of the areas. Perhaps I misread or presumed from my initial selection that we would be tasting tapas and wines at different venues as we walked through the neighborhoods. This was my priority for signing up for a food tour as I wanted to be acquainted with places in the neighborhoods. I definitely remember reading about stopping at Cervejaria Trinidade but the site description has since changed.…”
