What to do and see in Lisbon, Central Portugal: The Best Lessons & Workshops

February 8, 2022 Kelli Reichel

The museums of Lisbon celebrate the rich history and culture of this Portuguese capital city. The Maritime Museum is perfect for kids (and grown-ups!) who adore all things nautical, while the Casa-Museu Dr. Anastácio Gonçalves is a hidden gem of colorful artwork. To fully appreciate the city’s dramatic stone architecture you can take a guided walking tour, or customize your own tour, making sure to visit the Padrao dos Descobrimentos, the Mosteiro dos Jeronimos, and the UNESCO World Heritage site the Torre de Belem.

A really professional, friendly school who look to accommodate individual needs. Susana (Anjo) is a highly skilled teacher and a good sense of humour which makes learning more fun. The school stands out from competition with their weekly cultural activities. These provide the perfect backdrop to Lisbon, and are led by Indira who is a font of knowledge.

I took my first one week intensive course at Portuguese Connection last year and this year I came back for another... no doubt I'll be back for more!! Not only does my portuguese improve immensly in only a week, but I just love spending time there! From the minute you walk through the door, you'll be wrapped in the warm atmosphere that is so typical for the portuguese. Anna-Lisa, Joana and Marco and the whole team are beyond amazing, so thoughtful and sweet, and they're genuinly invested in you learning and having the best time possible. After one day you feel like you've known them all for years. As an added bonus, the school is situated in a PERFECT spot, it's in a gorgeous area of Lisbon, perfect walking distance to downtown, a great lunch/coffee place with great prices right across the street in the park... There's really nothing more you could want from a language course/school. Sign up, study, hang out and have a fantastic time in Lisbon, you won't regret it!

Eileen is so passionate about sharing her love of mosaics and her talent as a mosaic artist with her students.Taking a workshop with her is such a fun way to spend several hours and then the best part is, you get to take what you’ve created home!

Lisbon Cooking Academy

We love food, and believe that we can use it to create and experience unforgettable moments. That’s why in 2017 we opened the Lisbon Cooking Academy, a school where everybody can learn and share their food experiences, always in a casual and relaxed atmosphere. We love to have guests from all over the world to share with them the best of Portugal’s rich and diverse gastronomy.

My wife and I took Ana's Pastel de Nata class, and it was a fantastic experience! Ana is a great teacher -- kind, encouraging and patient. Her facilities are top-notch, and her hospitality so generous. We were only in Lisbon for a short while, and even tho the scheduled class wasn't available, Ana went out of her way to fit us in for a personal session before we left. And the pastels were delicious! I highly recommend the Lisbon Cooking Academy.
