LISBON: The Best Places to Visit in 2024 

Learn Portuguese from Portugal through the Language Course that I use: www.portuguesewithanita.com/Dave-store-september-2023

Great video!!! Filled with real authentic people. The Portuguese experience is the essence of what it means to be human.

Dave, of course we want you here. You and all that come for good, but I also want my people to afford Lisbon. It's up to our government to protect us, they haven't...totally different issue. Being born and raised in Lisboa, this video really touched me. Despite the issues, the good and bad, Lisbon is so special, our people are so real and sensitive, and sometimes not so😅.There is nothing better than the feeling of love and pride it gives me being Lisboeta, and that "O Palácio" Restaurante I visited the 1st time back in December, 2023, awesome food! Tks for showcasing us, our people, food and country. We love you Dave!

We need this type of videos about Portugal. Not just the “ this is really cheap kind…”tks for the sensibility to go beyond that. It’s important to us. Amazing video. Great editing.

This was the best video you have published! It showcases the amazing history, the beautiful people and delicious food! Brilliant 🎉

OK, this was, hands down, my favourite episode! I want to hang out with your friends! I love the '2 hours later...' and you are at a disco... It's been a long time, but looked like a lot of fun to me! You've got yourself some great buddies Dave!

I'm so happy that your video had a positive impact on Mario! He seems like such a genuine great guy so I'm happy we get to see more of him too 😊

One of your best videos in my personal opinion. Really like the way you mentioned some important and sensitive topics. Well done and thank you!

From another Portuguese Canadian...This was one of my favorite videos, thank you 😊. It was fantastic

I am Korean. When I visited Lisbon before, I was very impressed by the warm welcome feeling. The best food, heat, and everything lively moved my senses and is a touching place. Dreaming of Portugal, which always wriggles in my heart, Dave's video is a great help. 😊👁👍🩷

Dave! I adore your videos, the informative content, great editing and your genuine nature to name just a few things. This video has to be my favourite thus far. I was LOL-ing and also even teared up once or twice. Looks like you've made some superb top quality friends. I am so looking forward to my upcoming trip to Portugal. Even more stoked thanks to your videos. Its a beautiful life~

Echt, great video! One of the best! Thanks for that.. as a Portuguese from Lisbon liiving in Berlin, Germany, I really feel saudades :)

What a bloody good video mate!!Loved it !!Cheers from Sydney Australia

Mario's English and grasp of Americanisms is really impressive.

This video actually made me cry... It reminded me of what I want in life but also what I'm missing. So much love, friendship and kindness is absolutely what makes life worth living. I'm half Portuguese and want to move to Portugal since already 2016 but it's very difficult without big money or someone that helps you to get your feet into the country. Mario is such an amazing person, he gives so much happiness, makes people smile and it's so cool that he's also a DJ like me (: I would really love to meet and spend a day with him. If there's anyone out there with helpful tips on how to settle in Portugal without spending hundreds of euros on housing during the first few months I would be very grateful for it and appreciate that with all my heart. Dave as always thank you for this amazing, emotional and heartwarming video ❤ and keep on doing what you love. PS: Of course I would like to meet you too (:

What I love the most about Portuguese people is the open-mindedness. I have lived in Lisbon for 2 years and had to move away to another country for work in 2018. This year I am planning to move back for good, being aware that many things have changed in a short period of time... But I am absolutely obsessed with Portugal, and especially Lisbon; my heart just tells me that I need to move back.

Great video, as usual. My wife is Japanese and felt the need to advise that nanbanjin is actually "Southern Barbarians", because the ships came up from the south

You're alive! lol My wife and I have been waiting for your next video. We land in Lisbon tomorrow morning. Excited to explore the country we've learned so much about from you!

I love Lisbon. It's such a a special place.

Dave, thank you for your videos about Portugal, your kindness and authenticity! Please keep doing them!!... (from a Portuguese living in the US).

Fantastic video thank you to everyone keep up the good work

Love Mario happiness and sense of humor. Hope to see him next time when I am in Lisbon 😂

“Nem tanto ao mar nem tanto à terra” 😍😍😍

i was born in Lisboa, i will be there this march 2024, cant wait! from Tampa florida

Excellent video! Great editing I’m originally from the Azores and visiting Lisbon for the first time in my life in February on the way to the Azores and returning in March to spend a week exploring the mainland. Looking forward to seeing it in person.

Omg!! You really did get the full portuguese experience! 'O Panças' is amazing!!

Great video,…loving your contents. We are new to Portugal 🇵🇹 (northern Portugal) and find your content very relative

Great vídeo Dave. You have a Portuguese soul, you belong here. Thank you

As an Australian ,(made in Paris born in Australia), to Portuguese parents... I wish they'd never left beautiful Portugal. Everytime I return to Portugal which is very few and far between, I feel like I'm home!! Portugal will always be in my blood! I'm so proud that the rest of the world now realizes that Europe doesn't end at the Spanish border. To the beautiful people of Portugal .. you are the heart and soul of why travellers feel so welcome. Obrigado!! Saudades! ❤️🇵🇹 From 🇦🇺🦘🌏

Thank you for recommending Anita's language course. We love learning from her.

Wow !!! ❤❤❤ Great authentic video from my city. Loved it. Your pronunciation of Portuguese words is perfect. Congrats on that and the content Hugs !!!

I’ll be back in Lisboa in two weeks. As a pescatarian I’m super excited to check out O Palácio! Thanks to Mario for sharing. I really enjoyed hearing about Hema and Ricardo’s restaurant. I love visiting India just as much as I do visiting Portugal. Piri Piri Masala sounds like perfection ❤

Dave I’m going to tell you what I really like about you. You are bringing the locals “UP” with you. You are living the life I was dreaming of when I was planning to moved to Portugal. Living with the locals. I was not interested in Lisbon Porto and some areas of The Algarve. I grew up in a small Island, living in a small town where everyone knew everyone and loved. Thanks for all the great videos you create showing us “Locals” living.

Again.. saw it all with a smile and in a contemplation mood. So, yes... Great video! 😉💫

A true taste of Lisbon and its people! Love the VLOG Dave!

Your best video yet. Thanks for sharing!

Your videos make me smile for a electronic device. =P You seem happy, and happy people are great company! I think you're really turning portuguese, nanananana! =)

Love this city, guys you did a FANTASTIC job highlighting where the action is. It’s still my dream to move there. Muito abrigada! ………..❤️🤗🇨🇦

Mario is a delight. His 'turning Portuguese' song cracked me up

The part by the river got me really emotional. Honest love for Lisbon ❤

@DaveinPortugal - we are visiting in March- we booked a tour with Super Mario thanks to you!! Your videos have been amazing and he is SO nice- we loved your 24 hrs in Lisbon too-we can’t wait.Thanks for everything you do!!!! - Heather in Texas

Wow Dave - I’m living vicariously through you! Great friggin video!! I can’t wait to finally go to Portugal and take a Tuk Tuk ride, hopefully with Mario!

This reminds me how unpredictable my life used to be when I lived in Lisbon. One moment I was thinking about going home and 5 hours later we were leaving the club with the most insane story to tell.😂

Dave Just Love this video!! I've been to Lisbon truly blended in with Portuguese residents as much as I could putting myself out there to speak Portuguese as a beginner and the Kindness I felt ❤ 🤗 Plan to return for longer stay THANK YOU MUCH!! Blessings

This video was hilarious 😂😂. You all had a really good time. Dave, your face when you had that last sip of beer was priceless. You made me want to be back at the Portuguese marisqueiras to enjoy our beautiful petiscos.

Loved loved loved this! Thank you for the humanity, down to earth wonderful people. Love Lisbon, but love it even more through your eyes. ❤

IN PORTUGAL YOU ARE NOT A " GRINGO " YOU ARE A " CÁMONE "

amazing video Dave, you won another subscriber!!

Great Video - big appreciation for the editing!! I love Portugal as well and want to move there in the future too, like you did. My parents did that in the 90s and we moved back to Germany, when I had to go to school. Connections still intense and it's my second home. Keep up the good work!

Guy's what an amazing video . Just fantastic . Keep up the excellent work ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Super Fun video! Very touching, nostagic, authentic & entertaining! We will look up Mario's tuk tuk ride & definitely trying O Palácio when we arrive in April!

Appreciate the content and great to see Mario again 👍🏾

Best video about Lisbon and locals for a long time, thanks!

Awesome vídeo more relaxed with locals and actually seeing you more relaxed .... brutal .... if ever in madeira hope you have the best time ever ... enjoy dave .... the end is a true português 🤣🤣🤣

Great video! Just moved here and massively inspired by you. Keep it up!

Brilliant! And such great friends you have

Heading to Lisbon in three weeks with my wife and brazilian family, cheers!! Pumped to check it out.

This video is absolutely brilliant, with people who are not only very interesting but also absolutely genuine, which makes the video also like few others around here! Top of the Top!! Congratulations and please, continue with the excellent work on this small piece of land bathed by the sea.

LOL Everything happens for a reason! We "found" Mario through your videos and to see you guys going next level is awesome! Good stuff comes to good people! God bless you guys! 🤩

Keep up the great vlogs

hello and thank u for show our beautiful culture and citys in portugal . thank you Dave. lisbon its the city that i born and im proud for this .

Thank you for this! Great video, very informative.

Hi Dave, only just started watching your videos, got to say im hooked !

Great video ❤ Obrigada Thanks Dankie....only wish all of us who live and work here in the greater Lisbon area, could all afford a night out like that 😂 that seafood platter looks amazing . So wonderful to see someone so grateful, gracious and joyful.about being here 😊 so many new comers from afar need to exercise more patience, humility and appreciation.. ❤

Great video! Will be there this September. On another note, Just let Mario know Hawaii has similar housing issues of many locals are having to move to the continental U.S. I believe the government should have had some hindsight as well. I liked your attitude towards traveling and being a tourist. Hopefully both our countries find answers for both residents and tourists. Glad to see you back Dave!

This is such a fun video! The essence of all that you share is very sweetly and authentically communicated. Thanks:)

Many thanks for a beautiful colourful video, Dave! I'd like to visit Eduardo VII parque (Estufa Fria). PS Anita is as good teacher as nice actress. 🙂

Dave! You Rock man

Panças... great. I just came back from (Adega das) Gravatas. Great food as well!

Awesome Dave!!!!🎉👏👏👏👏

Your videos only keep getting better, loved this one.

Oh .... love your videos being Portuguese and watching from the USA 😢😢

Enjoyed your video! Noted all the places you went to and will be trying them soon when I move to Portugal from Canada in April. Hopefully I’ll be able to meet and make friends like you have! I’ll have one of those tall beers with you!😉

Love your content, the intro to this video, made it seems like it was the Hangover 4

That restaurant owner was an idiot. He basically asked you and tens of thousands of dollars to leave with you. What a fool!

Love this video Dave! Will visit Palacio de Ajuda and O Palacio soon! Thanks for the showcase on here!

What a great video Dave, really really good! Keep up the good work mate ;)

Thank you

What a great video man!!! Can't wait to go to Portugal!!!

He hesitated there for a moment after kissing the lady goodbye. He was going for the second kiss as is customary in Portugal ahahah

Best one yet Dave! Keep up the great work, I look forward to your videos.

Your videos make me want to go to Portugal asap! See you soon for that seafood platter! 😁

Very Nice Video Dave, lots of emotion in this one, its how you keep me coming back mu friend.

This was OUTSTANDING ❤️🎶 Thank you guys 🙏

My admiration goes to all papa and mama shops who are the ones who feed us with a true heart and vocation to the a most noble cause: To restore the people with quality and love. May chefs never loose this essence of the calling to serve, may they never loose their soul. Pride spoils the plate.

Def. I will hire him.🥰

Thanks, Dave! I am planning to start the Camino Portuguese in September with a tour group.... Marly Camino. We will come early to visit some of the places you featured in your videos! I don't have a natural " tongue" for the language but will practice! Maybe we'll trip over you somewhere on the streets of Porto! MaryAnn

Ah estufa fria! The place where my boyfriend and I gave our first kiss almost 7y ago😂

loved the night scene... it usually happens like that... let's go home... two hours later... Jamaica.

I love your videos. Keep it real 🫅

this is the best episode ever Dave. we portuguse go to great extends to avoid saying any negative remark to others to not hurt their feeling. we write an essay of 1000 words just to give a simple message like "for the time being, i need to be more time alone doing my things". obviously, this implies that we assume reciprocal approach from others. when we hear/read any foreigner that lives in our country say something slightly negative about us or about our country, that just brings out all our barbarian dna and expect to be showered with rage, indignation, insults and so on. it is part of our culture to request from foreigners the utmost respect for our country. as it part of our DNA have the utmost respect for the country we are visiting or living. so, once again, we expect reciprocity. in some of your previous videos, i felt enraged with you here and there. with time i am more understanding of your character, and today i laughed with your cockiness/sarcasm, and i think that along the line, you and us will be a perfect match.

Such a great video ❤ you guys so adorable 😂 love it

Dave, great great video. Heading to Portugal in 3 weeks from the USA and your videos have been in the center of our research…Q, How do we book Mario’s Tuk Tuk? Cheers!

As a spaniard and Portuguese I agree the salaries are too low for the rent prices

Great video!!!

Best ep. ever Dave. Keep up the good work. Abraço

Dave, you are getting it: the Portuguese way. Welcome back Home.

fantastic video! Tanks

AMAZING VIDEO! 👌🏼
