About this experience
The class focuses on preparing a 100% plant-based custard filling and the baking process. The puff pastry is pre-prepared, and you’ll receive an exclusive house-made recipe to recreate it at home, as puff pastry requires several hours to be ready for use. The session also includes a short and accessible introduction to the history of the Pastel de Nata in Portugal, from its origins in Lisbon to its evolution into one of the country’s most famous pastries, with insight into how this traditional recipe can be successfully adapted to a vegan version without losing its essence. Each participant will prepare several vegan Pastéis de Nata, which can be enjoyed on site or taken away. A transport box is included for your pastries. Throughout the workshop, enjoy Port wine, juice, water, coffee, and sweet and savory snacks, in a relaxed and social atmosphere. At the end of the session, you’ll leave with the confidence, and the recipe, to recreate this vegan Portuguese classic at home.

Changed my Mind
I have never really been a “tour person.” I always thought tours would feel too touristy, rushed, or impersonal. Mar completely changed my mind. She was absolutely amazing—warm, engaging, knowledgeable, and authentic. You could tell she truly loves what she does, and that authenticity made such a difference. Instead of making us feel like tourists being shuffled from place to place, she made us feel completely at home, almost like we were spending the day with a local friend who happened to know all the best places, stories, and little details. There were only six of us on the tour—my wife and me, along with a lovely family from Canada—so it really felt more like a private VIP experience than a traditional tour. Mar made everything personal, relaxed, and genuine, while still giving us so much history and insight. I honestly came away thinking there is no better way to see Sintra and the palace. Trying to do it all on our own would never have been the same experience. I went into the day thinking tours probably weren’t for me. I came away completely converted. If every tour guide were like Mar, I would happily take tours everywhere we travel. Thank you, Mar, for making the day so memorable and for making us feel less like tourists and more like guests of a local friend. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip.

The best vegan Pastel in Porto
Our instructor was the best (I believe Luis but we were a few minutes late so missed his name)! It was a lot of fun and the Pastels were delicious. Hard to find a vegan class so definitely recommend this if you want to do a vegan one.
via Viator
Fun and educational AND delicious!
We made vegan nata alongside a group making the non-vegan traditional version. The teacher (Rui) was so helpful and educational about both versions. Rui is the best. Can’t wait to make these for friends when we get home.

Great experience
Rui and Ana were great hosts. We had a lot of fun and made some delicious Pastel de Nata. Both were very attentive and we learned a lot.

Best Class Ever
Best cooking class ever!!! We had SO much fun! My friend and I made the vegan pastel de nata, and one other group also did the vegan one, and they said their pastel tasted better than the BEST pastel they’ve had in Portugal so far. It was so delicious, so fun, and the instructors were the best!!! 1000% recommend to do in Porto

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Porto.
How much does Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Porto usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 Porto is not rushed.
Is Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Porto, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine?
+
Around 4 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 Porto 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 Porto and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Porto: Vegan Pastel de Nata Cooking Class with Port Wine 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 Porto 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 Porto?
+
On Outty we rank every Porto experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Unvanquished Tour in Porto City Center, Porto's #1 Walking Tour, Small Group Geres National Park Full Day with picnic from Porto. 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 Porto?
+
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 Porto?
+
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.
