Fabulous fun art class in a charming local studi - Two hours flew by at this charming studio with Hugo as he showed us how to make a beautiful keepsake of Porto. He was kind, patient and very sweet and we all had a fabulous time. It was a highlight of our stay in Porto! I would do it again in a heartbeat if we returned and highly recommend to anyone.

A fun art class in Porto - This was so fun! Hugo was a great teacher and very patient. I am in no way an artist and my picture looks pretty good. I highly recommend this class for a break from all the sightseeing/walking.

Marvelous... - Wonderful experience. Without a doubt 100% recommended. Hugo is a great teacher and as a painter he is incredible, the class was very enjoyable, his explanations are wonderful, his attention is 10 and the workshop is charming. I have no doubt that I will repeat if I visit Porto again.

A must experience with Porto take home. - I can’t speak highly enough of Hugo. I was late due to trains being delayed and he made me feel so welcomed despite this disruption. His tuition was so encouraging and calm. He spent more than the allocated time just to make sure we were happy with the experience. I’ve been to a few watercolour fun tutorials but this is the outstanding best experience I’ve had. Thanks so much Hugo. You are such a patient, talented artist and tutor. 🙏🏻

Do it! This experience it's really worth it! - Yesterday, I had the opportunity to participate in this activity. Personally, it was a great experience. I found myself losing track of time. The small, intimate group environment allows the participants to enroll in the activity as well as feel comfortable asking the host questions and engaging with others. Hugo, the host, was very friendly and helpful, making the entire class relax and a great time. As an activity, it can be done by anyone. Either if you are attending alone, in a small group or a pair, I recommend. It's an amazing way to have a great time exploring the details of Porto architecture by painting it. Even if you have no major prior experience in this painting technique, Hugo will guide you calmly and the end result will certainly be amazing. I went by myself, and I couldn't recommend it more. It was a lovely afternoon with Hugo and the other guests. Hopefully, I will come back soon. Thank you, Hugo, for the great time!

Brilliant experience (even for a complete beginner) - This was such a lovely experience. Hugo is a real gentleman and was so patient in his teaching. I am a complete beginner and I actually came away with a pretty good painting (if I do say so myself!). My husband and I did this together and it was just a really lovely way to spend a few hours in Porto. We would both highly recommend this experience!
