Porto is a picture-perfect city, its beauty easily captured in a single frame — monumental churches dressed in blue tiles line a steep street opening up onto a view over the Douro River to Vila Nova de Gaia on the other side of the river, where the city’s famed Port wine lodges and their iconic billboards dot the hill. Dig deeper into the backstreets and we find the complexities of city life and the culinary diversity that comes with it. On this full-day food tour, with at least ten tasting stops, we’ll start with the city’s favorite pastry, the éclair, and strong coffee before visiting a 3rd generation chocolate-maker. We’ll stop into a tavern for a quick petisco of smoked meat and whatever’s fresh and then visit a traditional cheese shop for a tasting. We’ll sample one of Porto’s famed sandwiches at a lunch counter crowded with locals and head to a neighborhood restaurant to taste the freshest fish and finish with a tasting Port wine and gooey cakes created in a Portuguese convent.

5.00Best tour ever! Marcel was great. He provided information about the food, the history, the culture and the people. His personality was pleasant, personable and positive. It was because of Marcel that this was the Best Tour Ever!
Don’t miss this experience. I would highly recommend this trip and if you’re lucky enough you will get Marcel.

5.00Our food tour in Matosinhos, a 30 minute metro ride from Porto, was one the highlights of our trip to Portugal. It struck the perfect balance between delicious food and local culture delivered by our guide Marcel, who was just amazing. We sampled an incredible variety of traditional dishes, with sardines being the standout - fresh and flavorful. I will never look down on this little fish again. Each stop provided us with not only wonderful food but also a wine pairing and the stories and people behind the dishes.

5.00Very interesting , far from usual tour. Marcel was excellent- friendly, knowledgeable and very pleasant person to spend the day with. We experienced a large variety of traditional. Portuguese food, selected our fish at the market for lunch , explored the less familiar - barnacles, tripe. Black pork neck. If you are interested in local culture, willing to try explore new things and want real insight into the local way of life sign up for this tour.

5.00Excellent tour as always from Culinary Backstreets! Sardines from the dock to the tin. Since it was sardine season, we were able to have a nice meal of gilled sardines. Tour was intimate, which made it nice. We highly recommend Culinary Backstreets for their in-depth and intimate tours!
Fabulous Backstreets Tour in Matosinhos

5.00We had the most amazing time with Magalie exploring the fishing industry of Matosinhos - an area just 5 miles from Porto. It’s not just sardines (although we did have a few) but it’s the chance to see the fishing port and fish markets at close hand as well. Magalie knew all the best places to go for fish, pastries and coffee and we had a marvellous time - sadly, the end of the tour came all too quickly. The quality and quantity of food and drink was perfect and nothing was too much trouble. A perfect day and highly recommended!

5.00One of my best tours with your company, and this is my fourth. Your tours are fantastic and the tour guides are the best. Almost all of the stops were at places the local people ate.
