Hi I’m Ruthy! If you book my tour you may meet me, my husband Marcio or my friends Francisco, João, Héloïse,! :-)

I’m 29 and I’m a real foodie.

I live in Lisbon & I'm in love with the city, its culture & its gastronomy. That’s why I’ve founded my very own 18-tastings food experience company here, called Treasures of Lisboa.

I want to take you off the beaten paths, in Lisbon’s most narrow streets, to taste the best Portuguese dishes & drinks in authentic places. Join the fun!


Come with me and taste the best of Lisbon! Wine, charcuterie, typical pastries and many other gastronomic pearls will ensure you take in authentic and picturesque Portugal.


Get lost in a labyrinth of winding alleys, full of hidden treasures. Let yourself be transported by the soft light of Alfama and stroll through aromas and flavors that will touch all your senses. Here, gastronomy is, in its richness and authenticity, a hymn to the spirit of Lisbon.


OUR COMMITMENT IS ALSO SOCIAL:

- No plastic tour: we’re the 1st ones in Lisbon to have banished all kind of plastic from our experience.


- We respect local people: no more than 12 persons on our tour! We’re integrated in the local community: the grannies of Alfama love us ;-)


- We’re currently establishing a partnership with Re-food a community that works to eliminate food waste and hunger in each neighborhood of Lisbon. More info coming soon!


We’re proud to be the first Portuguese gastronomic tour of Alfama but we’re more than just a food tour, come and see by yourself.

What You Get

18 TASTINGS Homemade, handmade and UNIQUE: Some of the products or recipes that we taste are exclusive to my tour. You will not leave hungry! I serve plenty of sweet & savory food tastings from family restaurants. 100% typical! I'll give you a lot of info about Alfama & our cooking traditions. Please warn me in advance of any food allergies or diet restrictions! ** IMPORTANT: this activity is NOT suitable for Vegans/Vegetarians/No Fish diets. It IS suitable for Pescatarians (meaning no meat but fish ok) as long as we are warned at the time of booking.
Guided tour of Alfama: explanations regarding the city, the culture & Portuguese life

What You’ll Experience

1

Alfama

Located in the city-center & known as the historic cradle of Lisbon, the district of Alfama has kept its antiquated charm. Alfama combines the cuisine of the land and the sea. Stopping at some unique places, I will show you how to live like a real local during this walking gourmet experience! The restaurants we visit are very different one from the other, so after my experience you'll have a great overview of what our food scene is like nowadays!
