Had a great time on both... - Had a great time on both Pro Island Tours. I would warn people not to eat before the cooking class! It was big fun and their people are great.

Delicious - Antonio and Phillip were amazing to spend the afternoon with. They were so warm and welcoming. We made bread, and authentic Alcatra. It was simply delicious. To pass the time we chatted and played games. On our way home Antonio went out of his way to show us an amazing site. On my next visit I will certainly book another tour.

Authentic Portuguese Cooking! - This was such an incredibly authentic cooking opportunity. Our hosts Antonio and Philip were extremely hospitable and informative during this experience. We prepared bread and Portuguese traditional stew, which was so delicious. As my husband is a huge cook, he was completely immersed! The site of the experience is simply breathtaking. I would strongly recommend this to others. Enjoy.

Wonderful experience - The people were great as was the food we cooked. Antonio was great he went out of his way to show us around the island which was not included in the tour after the cooking class even offered to take us to the airport when we needed to go. Definitely recommend Pro island tours to anyone visiting Pico.

A must do!! - We had a great day with Pro Island tours at the park where we made bread, a traditional Portuguese dish,Alcatra, and a dessert. We played a board game while we waited for our food cooking in the old school stone oven and it was a very fun light hearted time. Money very well spent. Will do it on our next visit!!!!!

Great day! - We were picked up at our hotel by Antonio, and went to an outdoor park where the wood oven was already roaring. All 7 of us then made bread and Alcatra, a regional traditional meat dish. We had beer and wine and chatted while everything cooked in the oven, and then enjoyed the fruits of our labour. What a great day.. I highly recommend it!

Not worth the time or money - My husband and I were highly display inter in this experience. We were picked up at our hotel and driven directly to the cooking cottage. No scenic tour. We were expecting to make the typical Terceira Alcatra beef stew but instead chicken was used to save”time”. The instruction given to make the meal was minimal with no history of the dish etc. while the meal was cooking some of our fellow passengers played a game but it was extremely boring and a waste of time. A very small sampling of cheese was put out and we were offered cheap wine from a box. Definitely not worth over one hundred US dollars. Total rip-off.
