P&O Cruises has announced a new shore experience in partnership with Time Out.
The Flavours of Lisbon by Time Out and P&O Cruises will offer guests a taste of local food with a hands-on cooking class in the world-famous Time Out Market and discover the Baixa district’s Pink Street.
The experience includes a walking tour with local chef Miguel Mesquita through Baixa with its stunning architecture, famous yellow trams and Pink Street.
Guests will then visit Time Out Market which shares the building with a centuries-old traditional food market while shopping for all the ingredients for a cooking class.
At the Time Out Academy, Time Out Market Lisbon’s cooking school, guests will learn to prepare authentic local dishes before sitting down to enjoy the food.
P&O Cruises President Paul Ludlow said:
“Time Out has been uncovering the best of cities for decades and as our exclusive exploration partner, we’re so excited that P&O Cruises’ guests visiting Lisbon will get the opportunity to have a truly unique, authentic, culinary experience – created and curated by Time Out experts.”
Leonie Cooper, Time Out London Food & Drink Editor, said:
“Lisbon is one of the most exciting food destinations in the world right now – what better (and easier) way to taste all the city has to offer! P&O Cruises guests can score invaluable insider knowledge from passionate locals who’ll deliver an unforgettable day of fabulous feasting.”
