PORTO FISH TOUR PRIVATE EXPERIENCE
CULTURALLY IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE
Overview
The Portuguese Atlantic coastline is a true haven for fish lovers.
Join us in this Detour and learn the process of taking the best fish from the ocean to the table!
What you can expect
An extensive ocean frontier and a geographical location of Portugal made the Portuguese big fish consumers and masters in their fishing.
This art left us traces since the period of occupation of the peninsula by the Romans where the fishing industry has achieved great perfection until the days of today.
“There are traces of fishing in archaeological sites from the Paleolithic, about 50 thousand years ago, being associated with a
one of man’s first professions.”
Recognizing the extreme historical and cultural importance of this art, we created for you the tour that will make you travel through the whole process from a catch of the fish up to your plate.
As the saying goes “While in Rome, be a Roman”, let’s take a private and unique experience in the comfort of our vehicles at a small fishing community where they still use techniques with hundreds and some with a few thousand years of existence.
In our timeless trip you will have the opportunity to interact with the locals in the arrival of the boats, in their small workshops full of accessories that in themselves they tell stories, in the local market where the fishmongers scream at prices so that the customer does not do the embarrassed.
Continuing our journey on fish we will enter the world of canning, a renowned industry in Portugal.
Will have the opportunity to dazzle a factory with centuries-old history in which its processes of production has remained immaculate from the earliest days.
And because picking it up and keeping it is not enough to finish this fantastic experience, we have saved for you a beautiful lunch composed by the best that our waters have to give us.
This experience is ideal for sharing with friends, family, older or young people.
Remember, personalization is the key of your day!
