Lisbon: Pastel de Nata Baking Class

1.Lisbon: Pastel de Nata Baking Class

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 2,106 reviews · 2 hours · from $64Our pick

Bake Lisbon’s iconic pastel de nata in a friendly two-hour class with local drinks, pastry tips, Portuguese food traditions, and fresh tarts to enjoy.

“This was such a fun and rewarding experience — getting to learn how to make one of the world’s most loved desserts from scratch was incredible. The instructor was engaging, patient, and made the process approachable for everyone, regardless of skill level. Beyond the recipe itself, I was able to connect with two new friends during the class, which made the experience even more meaningful. That alone made it worthwhile. I’m excited to recreate the recipe at home and relive the experience all over again. Highly recommend this class to anyone considering it.”
