Visite du marché, cours de cuisine et déjeuner au Mercado de Arroios

Amazing experience! Made us feel like family! Low stress and great visit. We will be back. Thank you!

This was the highlight of our trip to Lisbon. I randomly came across this tour and thought it would be something to interest us. It was the best decision I made. We had the best time. Antonia and Luis were the best. We had a wonderful cooking experience. We left feeling like we made 2 new best friends.

We came here on our honeymoon and this was by far the best experience we have had. It felt like we were just having lunch with longtime friends. Very authentic and fun. Maria catered everything to our needs and picked a meal unique just for us. I learned more from our few hours together than 5+ cooking classes. Highly recommend.

We had a great experience. Antonia and her husband were terrific hosts. Such fun to go to the market and select fresh ingredients. We enjoyed the cooking. The food was great. Really nice to see a real home. So glad we did this!

Maria was a fantastic host! Had a wonderful time shopping with her and then back to her apartment. I love to cook but you are not obligated to do so. We had great starters and decided on a pork and shrimp dish. All in all a wonderful experience!

Wonderful way to get introduced not only to Lisbon but also to Portuguese cuisine. Maria was an exceptional guide and host, engaging in planning and shopping for the meal, as well as very welcoming when coming back to her home to cook. The meal was spectacular; the company and the conversation superb.

Can’t say enough positive things about our afternoon with Maria at the market, cooking, eating and drinking in her home. Truly the highlight of our Portugal travels. We learned so much about Portuguese foods and culture. Our time went by so quickly with wonderful conversation and we left feeling like we had truly made friends in Portugal. Would recommend that anyone who wants a true Portuguese family experience do this cooking class with Maria. There is no place else you will experience this!

Maria Antonia and Luis were the highlight of our trip to Portugal. They were the perfect hosts. Our tour of the market was a lot of fun, we learned so much about Portugal and cooking authentic Portuguese dishes, and it was a pleasure to spend time in their home. We highly, highly recommend this experience. I miss the already.

For those looking for a real gastronomic experience and to get to know the local culture, Antónia and her husband Luís are the perfect hosts! With all their friendliness and availability, they take us on an authentic journey through traditional Portuguese flavors, which begins at the local market, where we can learn more about deciding and buying what we will cook. We then move on to the kitchen, learning culinary techniques and tricks from Antónia and creating typical dishes. It ends very at the table, accompanied by good wine and conversation. An experience not to be missed!

Maria and Luis are wonderful hosts! Maria met us at the market and purchased fresh foods after asking our food preferences. Spent time with her in the kitchen preparing amazing dishes. Maria is a culinary whiz! I asked for fresh sardines (so curious to try the real thing) which she fried....OMG soooo amazing. The table was full of food and beautifully set. A lovely experience with lovely people. Would schedule again in a heartbeat! These wonderful generous hosts only get a small fraction of the Viator fee. Be aware. Tip accordingly. And DO take this tour!
