A culinary adventure in the Algarve: Half day cooking course
Discover the joy of cooking with our immersive cooking courses that take you on a culinary adventure through the heart of the Algarve!
Start your day at the local market, where, guided by our hosts, Inês or Mariana, you will select the freshest vegetables, meat, or fish.
Back at Monte do Álamo, you will learn to prepare and cook traditional Algarve recipes, many of which have been passed down through generations in our family.
The activity takes place in our kitchen, next to the garden, surrounded by fresh ingredients and authentic flavors.
As the delicious aromas begin to fill the air, you'll know that the best part is yet to come: savoring each dish you helped create, in a meal that celebrates the culinary heritage of the Algarve.


"Cooking is like painting or writing a song. Just as there are only so many notes or colors, there are only so many flavours – it’s how you combine them that sets you apart."

Gather with your friends or family around the table to savour the fruits of your labour in a delightful meal together. This is more than just a cooking class – it's an unforgettable experience that immerses you in the rich culture and vibrant flavors of the Algarve. Join us for a cooking experience filled with laughter, learning, and delicious food!
