PORTUGAL · MARKETS
2 tours
Portugal fills up from July and stays busy into October, so the good market tours go early. The 3 below would go on a first trip, priced and timed so you can choose in five minutes.
Shop Porto’s Mercado do Bolhão, cook Portuguese classics in a small-group showcooking, and enjoy lunch paired with local wine.
“Overall, this activity was as advertised but not as ‘hands on’ as we would expected for a ‘cooking’ class…it was more of a ‘demonstration’ class. Both hosts were very nice and attentive to our needs and questions.”
Small-group Lisbon market tour and hands-on cooking class. Buy fresh fish and produce, cook cataplana, and enjoy lunch with wine.
“What an amazing immersion experience with Chef Pedro! We started off the lesson visiting a local market where we shipped for fresh seafood and vegetables for our ingredients. While there we also got to sample local bread and cheeses. The class itself was a bit of work but lots of fun. Even my teenage daughter enjoyed rolling up her sleeves and learning to cook. We made a 4 course meal consisting of bread soup, mussels, seafood captaplana and orange torte. We also got to sample some oysters and goose barnacles. All in all a wonderful way to spend 1/2 a day learning more about the Portuguese culture. Highly recommend!”
