Culinary Experience with the Chef in the Douro Valley!
The same authenticity with the Douro landscape in the background!
Imagine yourself stepping into the historic Quinta da Boavista, the former manor house of the legendary Baron of Forrester, where time slows down and every detail breathes elegance. Surrounded by century-old vineyards rolling gently over the hills and by a landscape that leaves you breathless, you are invited to experience a moment that will stay with you forever.
Here, in the heart of the Douro Valley, you'll be welcomed into a truly exclusive culinary experience — an intimate encounter between fine gastronomy and the iconic wines that define this unique region. Guided by a renowned Portuguese chef, you'll discover, firsthand, the most treasured secrets of Portuguese cuisine: techniques, flavours and stories that few travellers ever have the chance to learn.
It's more than a cooking class.
It's a sensory ritual.
It's the Douro revealing itself through flavour, artistry and emotion.
