Best tour company in Terceira according to our hotel and we agree!! - Four of us took the cooking class with Antonio and Lindsay and it was fantastic!! We learned so much and laughed so hard! Antonio picked us up at our hotel and whisked us to his beautiful property. He provided drinks and delicious appetizers while our food cooked. The meal itself was the best we had on the Island. On the way back he showed us a couple of sites that were true hidden gems. Our day with Antonio was truly a highlight in our trip to the Azores!

Had a great time on both... - Had a great time on both Pro Island Tours. I would warn people not to eat before the cooking class! It was big fun and their people are great.

Delicious - Antonio and Phillip were amazing to spend the afternoon with. They were so warm and welcoming. We made bread, and authentic Alcatra. It was simply delicious. To pass the time we chatted and played games. On our way home Antonio went out of his way to show us an amazing site. On my next visit I will certainly book another tour.

Authentic Portuguese Cooking! - This was such an incredibly authentic cooking opportunity. Our hosts Antonio and Philip were extremely hospitable and informative during this experience. We prepared bread and Portuguese traditional stew, which was so delicious. As my husband is a huge cook, he was completely immersed! The site of the experience is simply breathtaking. I would strongly recommend this to others. Enjoy.

Wonderful experience - The people were great as was the food we cooked. Antonio was great he went out of his way to show us around the island which was not included in the tour after the cooking class even offered to take us to the airport when we needed to go. Definitely recommend Pro island tours to anyone visiting Pico.

A must do!! - We had a great day with Pro Island tours at the park where we made bread, a traditional Portuguese dish,Alcatra, and a dessert. We played a board game while we waited for our food cooking in the old school stone oven and it was a very fun light hearted time. Money very well spent. Will do it on our next visit!!!!!

Not worth the time or money - My husband and I were highly display inter in this experience. We were picked up at our hotel and driven directly to the cooking cottage. No scenic tour. We were expecting to make the typical Terceira Alcatra beef stew but instead chicken was used to save”time”. The instruction given to make the meal was minimal with no history of the dish etc. while the meal was cooking some of our fellow passengers played a game but it was extremely boring and a waste of time. A very small sampling of cheese was put out and we were offered cheap wine from a box. Definitely not worth over one hundred US dollars. Total rip-off.
