Fantastic day

Published on Apr, 2024

This was a fantastic excursion. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the area and of tile making. Going to the workshop and watching how tiles are made gave us a whole new appreciation for the work and craftsmanship that go into making tile - one by one. Getting to make our own tile was a lot of fun too. I highly recommend this tour.

An excellent stop in Lisbon -- make sure to give yourself a few hours at least!

The museum, which is connected to an old church, is breathtakingly beautiful and well curated. The museum includes tiles that are over 500 years old and shows the process of tile-making, even including several stations for people with moderate to severe vision impairments. Most of the signage is in both Portuguese and English. The museum takes viewers from the early days of tile-making to the present and includes a whole section of 20th- and 21st-century artists. There is even a huge mural depicting Lisbon from before the 1755 earthquake. The cafe is large and has indoor and outdoor seating as well as plenty of dining options, from tea and snacks to larger lunch ideas. I'm not sure there's much for children to do or see; I didn't spot any kids during my visit.

Fabulous tour

Published on Feb, 2024

We absolutely loved our tour. We couldn’t have asked for a more informed and fabulous guide. Nuno took us around Lisbon showing the various tiled facades, he never rushed us at the factory when we were painting our tiles and gave us a fabulous recommendation for lunch. We had a fantastic experience and recommend this tour…even if you don’t feel as comfortable painting as I did starting out.

Great learning experience and entertaining at the same time.

We had a wonderful time learning about the history of the Portuguese tiles. Our guide Philip was very knowledgeable and kind. Every question was answered. He was so helpful and fun to learn from. The National Tile Museum was amazing.

Really enjoyed our day of tiles

Published on Jan, 2024

Nuno was very knowledgeable and flexible with our private tour. The tile factory was very informative and lots of fun! My painted tile turned out much better than I thought it would! Really enjoyed the conversation, the knowledge and flexibility! Thank you!
