Learn to leap up on your surfboard and ride the Portuguese waves, against the backdrop of a sandy beach coastline.

Experience yoga like never before on Vilamoura’s beach, with the soft sand beneath your feet, waves as your soundtrack, and the magical morning light around you.

It starts with the sound of ice in the glass, the freshness of citrus, and your first sip of a Portonic — light, refreshing, and unexpected! Combining a Portonic cocktail with a Pastéis de Nata baking class creates a unique experience in Portugal — where tradition meets fun in a relaxed way. As the class unfolds, the atmosphere shifts from the clink of glasses to the smell of buttery pastry in the oven. Hands in the dough, conversations around the table, and that quiet anticipation as everything comes together. And then, the moment everyone waits for — your Pastéis de Nata, fresh out of the oven. Golden, warm, slightly caramelised on top. Where else have you ever tried Pastéis de Nata this fresh? They taste different when you’ve made them yourself. Better, somehow. By the end, it’s not just about what you’ve learned — it’s the feeling of having created something from scratch, shared the experience, and knowing you can do it again at home.

Step beyond a traditional tasting and immerse yourself in a journey where every sip tells a story. From the moment you enter Taylor’s historic cellars, you are enveloped in centuries of tradition, craftsmanship, and passion. Each masterclass is more than a tasting — it is a curated exploration of Port wine at its finest, where rare vintages, aged Tawnies, and iconic Ports reveal layers of complexity, depth, and elegance. Guided by an expert host, you will discover subtle aromas, intricate textures, and the distinctive character that time, oak, and terroir have imparted to each wine. Overlooking the Douro River and the city of Porto, the setting transforms every taste into a moment of indulgence, reflection, and appreciation — a truly unforgettable experience for collectors, connoisseurs, and anyone who cherishes the art of fine wine.

Portugal is known for its moreish pastries—and in particular the iconic “pastel de nata” custard tarts. It’s easy to taste your way around Lisbon’s bakeries, but with this experience, you can go one step further and actually learn how to make these sweet delights. Take part in a Portuguese pastry class in an atmospheric bakery, learn to make two recipes, then sample your creations with local wine.

In this day we will drive you to meet the owners and wine maker of the wine estates, and with them make a guided tour of their wine presses, cellars and taste the oldest wines present in the family generations. So your day starts with a short pedestrian walk over the bridge over the Douro River and then we will visit a special wine producer, a family wine estate with unique characteristics. Here you can taste some regional products as well as taste very old Port wine. After that, we will go down the river to see the road that was naturally designed on the banks of the Douro. We will have a unique gastronomy experience with a privileged view over the Douro in DOC Restaurant.

Most photo walks focus on postcard views or preset stops. This experience is different. Led by Jaki, a working photographer and co-founder of the Lisbon Street Photo Fest, it focuses on how to see rather than where to go. The walk blends teaching and exploration, moving through areas chosen for their light, texture, and atmosphere. You’ll learn how to read a scene, notice timing and rhythm, and photograph with intention instead of impulse. The group stays small so everyone receives personal guidance, no matter what camera they use. By the end, you’ll understand how photographers approach a city and how to translate what you see into meaningful images.
