Itinerary
Did you know that the first Europeans to arrive in India were the Portuguese? Come discover through flavors how two continents became intertwined forever.
We'll indulge in Nepal's culinary tradition, renowned for its fresh aromas and stylish cocktails. Let's just say Portuguese missionaries never imagined these kinds of consequences.
We bet you didn't know that the spiciness in Korean food actually comes from the Americas, and it was the Portuguese who made the connection. Let's enjoy Korean delights like crispy fried chicken while learning this incredible story of ingredients that travel around the world.
But if there was an ultimate destination for Portuguese voyages, it was India. Let's discover why through its gastronomy and how Iberian seasoning made its way there, which you can find in one of the most famous Indian curries.
Of course, we will take a digestion break at a fantastic viewpoint, where we will enjoy the sunset with panoramic views of the city and the Tagus River, through which ships brought curiosities from around the world to Europe. This will be a perfect moment for you to take your best photos.
China cannot be left out, so we will take you to taste authentic Chinese street food at a secret location in Lisbon. You will also unravel the secret route to Portuguese treats in China so you don't have to live off egg fried rice alone when you go there.
But Lisbon was also a Muslim territory for centuries, and it's precisely in the Mouraria neighborhood where we will conclude our culinary journey with the sweetness of Bangladeshi desserts.

About Lisbon
Lisbon spills down its hills to the Tagus estuary, a city of tiled façades, rattling yellow trams, viewpoint terraces and late, unhurried dinners.
The old quarters hold most of the charm. Alfama's tangle of lanes climbs to São Jorge Castle and echoes with fado in the evening, the Baixa's orderly grid runs down to the vast Praça do Comércio on the river, and Bairro Alto and Chiado mix bookshops and cafés by day with bars by night. Viewpoints such as Santa Luzia and Senhora do Monte frame red rooftops and shining water.
Top-ranked sights in Lisbon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
