Lezione di cucina tradizionale, tour della fattoria e pranzo nella valle del Douro

Fabio is wonderful! The reviews are very accurate. The farm is fun for everyone. The food and hospitality are amazing! There was so much food! He will also work with you if you have any allergies. We have a nut allergy and it was no problem. It's a great day!

this was an awesome experience when we were in Portugal. Food was delicious and plentiful. Fabio was amazing and patient with us. Definitely coming back again.

Fabulous experience. Fabio is amazing - he runs the whole farm with its greenhouse vegetables, animals, orchard and a vineyard. And he’s the chef for the cooking class which was fun with very traditional dishes. His stories of the farm including fire, loss and rebuilding are absolutely incredible.

We enjoyed our visit. Our host was hospitable and shared family stories and history. A nice break from the city.

This was absolutely a highlight of our 10 days in Portugal. We learned about the region's culture, history, and food! Fabio was so warm and welcoming - we felt instantly like old friends. Recommend blocking a whole day - Fabio fed us throughout the day, we didn't have enough time to eat it all and we could have stayed to chat for hours more. Fabio helped us to coordinate trains to and from Porto and a taxi to pick us up at the train station and drop off us at the train station. It was easy and relaxing. We came home and immediately started recreating the dishes we learned. YUM! We feel so good to be supporting a family owned and operated farm. We are so grateful for the incredible day we had together and will remember it always! We hope to stay in touch and will definitely refer our friends and family.

AMAZING experience!! From the views, the food, the farm experience to the kindness of our host was a spectacular experience.

Our visit to Fabio’s farm in the Douro Valley was unforgettable. After losing much of his land to a fire and his father, who built the farm, Fabio rebuilt with strength and hope — planting olive and fruit trees where grapevines once stood. We spent the day strawberry picking, collecting eggs, and later cooking traditional dishes in his kitchen. Fabio’s warmth, resilience, and love for the land made this experience truly special — a beautiful reminder of renewal and the spirit of the Douro Valley. Sheikha and Reem Kuwait

A do not miss experience with Fabio and his family farm! He is charming and kind and generous and we had so much fun exploring his farm, visiting his family and all his animals, picking fruit and cooking and eating our delicious food! I’m still full!

My fiancé and I took Fabio’s cooking class just before our wedding, and it became one of our most cherished memories. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home — his friendly dogs and cats added such warmth to the beautiful farmstead setting. Walking the property, learning about his gardens and animals, and then cooking together was an incredible experience. The dishes we made were delicious — recipes we’ll recreate every anniversary to relive that special day. Sharing the meal afterward with refreshing wine and beer made it all the more perfect. Fabio’s dedication to self-sustainability — from solar panels to his animals and honey — is truly inspiring. His family’s care and love for the estate make it a place blessed by both nature and heart. Thank you, Fabio, for welcoming us and sharing your passion — it was simply unforgettable.

This was the best farm tour cooking class I have experienced in Europe. Our host was so kind and gracious and accommodating. We learned so much about the history of the land as well as about the farm animals and crops. We started with an amazing breakfast spread of farm-made sausages, cheeses, breads, olives, honey and jams. Then we learned to make a traditional onion tomato poached egg soup, a cod potato entree, and a lemon cinnamon custard with a port caramel sauce. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped with gorgeous views of the surrounding hills and farm. This is an absolute MUST do in Douro Valley.
