Better than expected. Highly recommend!
Our beautiful French artist/teacher (Agata) welcomed us into her home for this tile making experience. She was very knowledgeable about the origins of each style of tile design, and the country’s influence on the styles of each flower, line, shape, etc. she was a joy to coach us. We were offered coffee, tea, and treats. We had a great time and LOVE our finished tiles. We highly recommend this class, and would love to repeat the experience if ever in Lisbon again.

Tile design at its best
This is a fun, creative experience that allows you to take your tile home with you! Highly recommend!

Not what we wxpected
First, the location was a bit confusing as we were expecting a store front, but the host responded immediately to our inquiry and we were able to quickly find her studio. Water, tea, and coffee were offered during our time. The instructor discussed tile history and the process of making the design. It was confusing and no one within the six attendees appeared to understand and just started creating their own. Once finished, the instructor would make recommendations of additional designs. We enjoyed the painting part of the process. It was fun getting to choose your own colors and seeing what colors other’s chose. The instructor uses a scanner to upload the design and has a machine that adheres it to a tile. In the end, we made a pretty tile and this was something different to do in Lisbon. My friend and I are not sure that we would really recommend the class.

Fun solo activity!
Absolutely book this immediately. It was delightful. She has stencils, paints, all the supplies, and you leave with your tile at the end of class. You will LOVE it!!

Great workshop…if you speak French.
The workshop was for 6 people, but 2 did not show, so it was just 4 of us. The class was in the instructor’s art studio and she was prepared for us upon arrival. She explained the process and then let us take our time creating our tile. 2 of the people in the class were French and the instructor was French. Meanwhile myself and the other person only spoke English. Although everyone in the room spoke English, the 3 of them proceeded to speak exclusively French and the instructor told them all about the history of color and Portuguese tile art…in French. Myself and the other English speaker were left feeling out of place. That was disappointing, since I specifically booked this activity because it was led in English. I found it rude and inconsiderate.

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Portuguese Tile Workshop: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Portuguese Tile Workshop cost?
+
Prices start at €55 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 Portuguese Tile Workshop take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Portuguese Tile Workshop worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 55 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Portuguese Tile Workshop?
+
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 Portuguese Tile Workshop suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Portuguese Tile Workshop?
+
Around 19 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Portuguese Tile Workshop 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, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. 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.
What is included in Portuguese Tile Workshop?
+
Included: Tea and coffee. Not included: Bottled water; and Carbonated beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Portuguese Tile Workshop?
+
Cross between rua de Timor and rua de Cabo Verde . Building pink & white. Bell 2 - 2 nd floor Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Portuguese Tile Workshop offered in?
+
It is offered in Portuguese, English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Portuguese Tile Workshop?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
