Our Lesbifriends Travel trip to Portugal and Spain this October was nothing short of phenomenal! The planning and execution were flawless (thanks, Beatriz!), making this an unforgettable journey for our group.
The tours were perfectly curated to showcase the beauty and culture of both countries. From exploring the historic streets of Lisbon and tasting traditional pastel de nata, to marveling at the Alhambra in Granada and the vibrant energy of Barcelona, every stop felt like a new discovery.
Our guides were beyond amazing—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate. They brought the history and culture of each destination to life and made us feel truly connected to the places we visited.
The food was an experience in itself—delicious local cuisine at every turn, with memorable highlights like a traditional Fado dinner in Portugal and tapas hopping in Spain.
Every activity, from the Douro Valley wine tour to a flamenco performance in Seville, was thoughtfully planned and exceeded expectations. The balance of structured tours and free time was perfect, allowing us to explore and relax.
Lesbifriends Travel outdid itself with this trip. It was seamless, enriching, and packed with memories we’ll cherish forever. Can’t wait for the next adventure!

Get to Know Lisbon with a Local
Lisbon
The "Get to Know Lisbon with a Local" tour was a great way to explore the city’s rich history and hidden gems. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, offering fascinating insights into Lisbon’s culture and landmarks. However, the pace felt a bit slow for our group, and there was a lot of walking, which might not be ideal for everyone. That said, it’s a wonderful experience for history buffs or anyone looking to dive deep into Lisbon’s story. Overall, an informative and enjoyable tour, but best suited for those who appreciate a slower, detailed exploration.

Tapas & Flamenco Experience in Seville
Seville
The Tapas & Flamenco Experience in Seville was just okay. The tapas were just a light snack, but not particularly memorable, and we felt the selection could have been more diverse. The flamenco performance was passionate and authentic, but the venue felt a bit cramped and didn’t quite capture the vibrant energy we were expecting. Overall, it was a decent way to spend an evening, but it didn’t stand out compared to other experiences on our trip.
Private Lisbon Culinary Food Experience
Lisbon
The Private Lisbon Culinary Food Experience was absolutely amazing! We savored authentic Portuguese dishes, explored local markets, and learned about Lisbon’s rich food culture from our fantastic guide. The highlight was a hands-on cooking session where we made traditional dishes and enjoyed them together. It was delicious, fun, and truly immersive—a must-do for food lovers in Lisbon!

Private Local Market Visit & Cooking Class
Barcelona
The Private Local Market Visit & Cooking Class was hands-down the highlight of our trip! This experience was the perfect blend of culture, cuisine, and connection. Exploring the local market with our guide was so much fun—learning about fresh, regional ingredients and selecting the items we’d use later was an adventure in itself.
The cooking class was equally incredible! The hands-on experience of preparing traditional dishes under the guidance of a skilled and personable chef was both educational and entertaining. Everyone in our group, from seasoned cooks to beginners, had an amazing time. The best part? Sitting down together to enjoy the delicious meal we created—it felt like a true celebration.
This activity brought us closer as a group and gave us memories (and recipes!) that we’ll cherish forever. A must-do for anyone visiting and looking for an authentic, interactive experience!
