Taste the Algarve on a Walking Food Tour in Lagos
Eat Drink Discover – Food Tours Algarve is the kind of experience that turns a nice trip into a truly memorable one—especially if you love eating like a local. Based in Lagos, this food tour blends relaxed sightseeing with a curated lineup of Algarvian flavors, taking you through the city on foot with carefully chosen stops that feel authentic, welcoming, and delicious.
The tour experience is thoughtfully paced: you’ll meet at a central landmark (the Prince Henry statue is a common starting point) and get a warm welcome before heading out to multiple venues. Guests often mention visiting three different restaurants within easy walking distance, making it feel effortless while still giving you a real sense of the neighborhood. At each stop, you’re encouraged to try plenty—this isn’t a “tiny bite” situation. Expect a generous spread of regional treats, served promptly, with drinks included (wine is a popular choice), and an atmosphere that feels social and upbeat.
What really elevates the tour is the guiding. Travelers frequently describe guides like Sophia/Sophie and Ester as friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to be around. Along the way, you get context on what you’re eating and where you are—those little cultural notes that make a dish more than just a dish. Many people also love the morning option that includes the market, especially if you want to see fresh produce and local specialties before sitting down to eat.
Three hours tends to fly by, and that’s usually the best sign you’ve booked the right experience. If you’re looking for local Algarve cuisine, a relaxed walking route, and a guide who makes the city feel instantly familiar, Eat Drink Discover is a standout choice in Lagos—ideal for couples, friends, solo travelers, and anyone who wants to “discover” the Algarve one plate at a time.

2 months agoThis was a good introduction to the Lagos culinary scene and sampling a number of different dishes, wines, beers and a few shots. The guide peppered us with information about the area, culture, food and drink.

3 months agoExcelente! Gostei muito da comida, tudo esteve bem organizado, a guia Sofia soube muito das coisas e apresentou a seleção muito interessante e divertida. Gostei especialmente da Cervejaria Ferradura, com aquela conheci um bar que não teria entrado só porque teria sentido uma intrusa! Muito obrigada por esta experiência! Oh - eu estive ao mercado duas vezes por comprar coisas que he descubrido durante a excursão!
