Istanbul Kulturní zážitky

We arrived a bit earlier than scheduled and were served Turkish tea while waiting, which was such a nice touch. To our surprise, it ended up being just the 2 of us in the workshop! It felt like a private, relaxed session. shout out to Rustam for patiently answering all our questions (we had many lol), while Hussein also joined us. Although it was meant to be 2 hours, we stayed almost 2.5 hours because we were having so much fun. We learned about Turkish coffee history, ground the beans ourselves, tried pistachio coffee (so good I bought some to bring home!), and even enjoyed the fortune-telling session. We also received a small souvenir, which we truly appreciated. Thank you for such a warm and memorable experience in Istanbul! PS: Rustam, don’t overwork yourself! ⭐️

The staff there were very nice and friendly. They even picked us up from the metro station if you’re coming from the european side, and the transport fee was on them. Our instructor Mehmet, explained everything very clearly. During the workshop, we had unlimited water, turkish tea and cookies. Even after I got back to my country, i had an issue with my lamp and i reached out to them for some advice. The staff were super helpful in getting it fixed. They even provided a video to make sure i fixed it properly. You can really see the effort they put in. Overall, i had such a nice experience there. Highly recommended!

Have a very nice afternoon. It takes patience and dedication, in the end, you will get a wonderful handmade artwork and happy memories.

Obrovské poděkování Esin za nezapomenutelný zážitek. Bylo s ní tak příjemné mluvit, byla trpělivá a laskavá. Je zřejmé, že je odbornicí ve svém oboru. Provedla nás každým krokem s takovou péčí a my jsme si odnesli spoustu nových poznatků. Bylo to krásné setkání!

If you enjoy hands-on experiences, you definitely shouldn't miss this activity. When I arrived, I decided to make a mosaic lampshade instead. They also offer other classes, such as candle holders, pottery, and hydro-dipping art. I felt a great sense of accomplishment after finishing, and they even give you a lamp base to take home.

If you're Korean and feel like you've seen all the tourist spots in Turkey, you absolutely must try this. Honestly, I was hesitant at first because it was less than 30,000 won after a discount, and there weren't many reviews. But it turned out to be incredibly good value for money and very satisfying. When I went, one instructor taught a class of about 15 people in both English and Turkish. They gave detailed advice, like which scents wouldn't go well together, if a scent was too strong, or the best mixing ratios, which helped me create my own satisfying perfume. There was a good variety of perfume essences available, like saffron and milk, and the price also included refreshments such as coffee, tea, and snacks. Even during the class, if you just tell the staff what you'd like to drink, they'll prepare it right away. At the end, they even carefully packaged it with bubble wrap, so I didn't have to worry about putting it in my luggage. It's so affordable that you might wonder if there are any hidden extra charges, but there aren't; they even cover the subway fare from the pickup location to the workshop. Thanks to this, I'm taking home a very special memory :)

Ali took great care of us and was a great teacher. It was our first time doing a tufting workshop and we walked out with amazing artwork that we will cherish. Ali was very patient working with us and helped us make a beautiful piece of art. Thank you Ali!
