Great fun / informative and yummy food
Rita was so fun knowledgeable and easy to listen to - we spent 2 hours discussing what to cook then going out to market and being informed about all the different foods etc there - then it was back to class and cooking !! Great fun and even better food - we do cooking classes every time we travel - well up there with all the best around the world

Best cooking experience I have had.
Best cooking class I have attended. We went to market first, the chef encouraged us to select fruits, vegetables and cheeses we weren’t familiar with. She bought them all so we could taste and incorporate them in the meal. She definitely was knowledgeable on what to select when choosing the veggies and fruit. Fun day.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much! We love that the market visit sparked so much curiosity. Exploring new ingredients and bringing them into the kitchen is exactly the experience we want to create. So glad you had a fun day with us!

Fun and informative local market and cooking experience!
The market tour and cooking class with Ana was AMAZING!!! She met with us before making the short walk to the market to understand our food preferences, explained tips for selecting fresh products at the market and then taught us how to cook chorizo on an open flame, seafood cataplana, beef pica pau and pastel de nata. Ana was helpful and fun the entire time. We highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Dear Kazkey, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so happy to hear that you had such an AMAZING time with Ana on the market tour and cooking class. It’s always a joy to guide our guests through the market and share the secrets behind selecting fresh, local ingredients — and even more rewarding to cook and enjoy those dishes together! From the cataplana to the pastel de nata, it sounds like you truly embraced the full Portuguese culinary experience. Ana will be delighted to know how much you appreciated her guidance and energy throughout. Your kind words and recommendation mean a lot to us! We’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re in Lisbon. Warm regards, The Lisbon Cooking Academy Team

Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at €135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.
Is Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lisbon Market Tour and Portuguese Cooking Class with Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lisbon?
+
On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, Escape Hunt Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lisbon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lisbon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
