Awesome Experience - This was definitely a great experience leaving you to take home memories of Lisbon. I ended up being a little late and they were very nice! I think the glasses of Port Wine helped me paint better lol. It was very relaxing. I am so happy I chose it💜

A must to do list in Portugal - Very unique and Portuguese experience. The lovely tutor explained the tile painting steps by steps clearly. She would be there whenever you needed help. We enjoyed the lesson and this tour did make it one of our most memorable activities in Portugal. I am not sure if I missed the information as we had to collect our tile 2 hours later. So if you are in a hurry to leave Porto shortly after the workshop, please make sure you have sufficient time to collect your tile.

An awesome activity in Porto - We spent a lovely afternoon doing a tile painting workshop with Rita at Domus Arte in Porto. I booked this as a surprise gift for my sister’s 75th birthday and it was the highlight of our holiday in Porto. Suzette was so helpful and accommodating during the booking process. We had booked the tile painting workshop with glass of Port and as a special treat to celebrate my sister’s birthday they generously threw in a bottle of champagne and cake. We really appreciated this kind gesture. Thank you for your kindness! It was an enjoyable afternoon learning about the history of tile painting, the different styles, how to mix and apply colour to the tile design, and finally creating our own painted tiles. Rita was so helpful and patient and gave us so many great tips about tile painting and other interesting tips about what to do and where to eat in Porto. The entire experience was fun and relaxing - being creative and bonding with our new friends who took the workshop with us. If you have the time - I highly recommend you do not miss this awesome activity. Suzette, Rita and the rest of her team really do pull out all the stops to ensure you have an enjoyable experience. You guys are the best - Thank you so much!!!

Hand on cultural experience - The tile painting experience in Porto was the perfect way to end our trip! It was both fun and educational, offering a unique insight into Portuguese art and culture. Our two girls, ages 7 and 9, absolutely loved it and enjoyed expressing their creativity. The activity was well organized and engaging for all ages, making it a memorable highlight of our journey.

Tile painting - Fernanda is an outstanding teacher, and made the class fun and engaging, encouraging us to be really creative. I went alone, but the small class was brilliant, as I was able to meet new people.

Family friendly activity; perfect keepsake from Portugal - The teacher was very friendly, open to painters of all skill levels and generous with the supplies (paint, brushes, tile designs, etc.) We went with our 6yr olds and she made the class fun for the entire family. 2hrs went by fast -- highly recommend this family-activity to take a piece of Portugal culture as keepsake back home for any tourist
