“There were one or two nice elements but overall we were disappointed by the experience especially considering the extreme price. The pickup point was changed on the last date leading us to walk 10 mins to the actual meeting place. From there we had to walk another 10 mins to the tuktuk parking place. I booked the tour due to my senior (80 year old) parents mobility so this was not welcome. The guide blamed a change in parking rules for the reason. The first tapa was near the meeting point before we got into the tuk tuk. It was average fare. The second tapa was at base of Alfama…”
