Introduction:
Lisbon´s Earthquake Tour, Tapa and Port Wine Tasting
On this private day tour in Lisbon we will visit the sites where the Earthquake 1755 destroyed Lisbon and The places where it didn’t destroyed. The mega-earthquake of 1755 and the tidal wave that followed this had devastating effects, resulting in enormous material and human losses. The destruction of the city’s built heritage led to an unprecedented reconstruction programme and created an opportunity for the development of new solutions, not only at the level of architecture and civil engineering, but also in the field of town planning.

Tapas means -cover-. Portugal is famous for its fish and shellfish and a tapa bar is a great place to sample the array. Fried fish, Lisbon´s Earthquake Tour, Tapa and Port Wine Tastingfrom tiny fresh anchovies and rings of tender squid to chunks of fresh hake and batter-dipped prawns are enticing, in deed. The selection of shellfish will astound you-clams and razorshells, mussels, prawns ranging in size from the tiny to the jumbo; crab, lobster, and more. We have a variety of hot dishes. Some are cooked to order-prawns pil pil, sizzled with garlic and oil; garlicky grilled pork loin-while others are dished out of a bubbling stew-pot. You can savour meatballs in almond sauce, kidneys in Sherry sauce, sautéed mushrooms, chicken fried al ajillo, with garlic; lamb stew; broad beans with ham; piquant tripe, spicy snails, and, of course, tortilla, a thick round potato omelette. Crisp-fried fritters and croquettes are other great tapas of Andalusia, which produces the world's finest olive oil.
