Visiting Portugal means: tiles! Especially Porto is a real open air museum when it comes to this handcrafted art. Inspired by all the little squares we booked this course and loved it. Beatriz was our host and what an energy! After a little introduction and some history you start finding your inner Picasso. We got a glass of port to free the mind and within 1,5 hours you make your own souvenir. Recommended!!

It was all memorable. The instructor was very good at helping and spoke English very well. Definitely would do it again when in Porto.

Sara_N

It was so fun to learn more about Portuguese culture and especially the story behind all the beautiful tiles that adorn the city, and then try to do one yourself! Highly recommend this experience.

Beatriz lead a wonderful class on tile painting. I had a friend visiting from the US and we thought it would be fun to spend some time learning to decorate tile using traditional Portuguese patterns. We were right! It was a small group for this particular class. Beatriz showed us painting techniques and how to use the materials. After the class our tiles were fired in an oven and we got to take home our creations. Lots of fun and a nice way to spend a some time with a good friend. This was my introduction to painting tiles and I would love to do more of it!

Federica was great in giving us a bit of a background in tile painting and then guiding us through the process. The hours flew by so quickly aswell as you do need to focus on the tile. But again Federica was on hand constantly to give us guidance and support and steer us in the right approach. 100% recommend this as an activity for anyone visiting Porto.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Instructor Beatriz. She was delightful, knowledgeable, and friendly! Not only did we have an excellent experience learning how to tile paint, but also we learned about the history and culture of Portuguese tile painting. Beatriz took time to connect with everyone there and she gave drinks and delicious cookies. We highly recommend this everyone! It’s memorable and fun!!!
