We came as part of a package tour and visited during our free time in the evening. Since we had a child and my mother-in-law with us, we booked the experience for one adult and two children. It was about a 5-minute drive from the ALERIA Hotel, and the taxi fare was around 200 lira, so it was quite close. We were able to book the experience on the same day. They said it would take an hour, but it can finish in as little as 30 minutes. Even though it was short, I didn't feel it was too brief; rather, I was tired but made some fun memories and had a good experience. My 4-year-old loved it, and my 8-year-old absolutely adored it. Even my mother-in-law, who is in her 60s, initially thought it wouldn't be great but found it very enjoyable once she tried it! Apparently, the pottery village used to be a popular tourist destination! Since Turkish pottery is famous, I think it's a good idea to try the experience. It's best to allow an hour for it! ◡̈
Very close and engaging session. Basically it was just us! So there was no pressure and we could have our experience however we wanted. The mother and her son were very accomodating. We arrived earlier than our session and they were more than happy to start our experience immediately. We really had fun making the art pieces and subsequently drawing. The mother was so hospitable and genuine in making our visit a comfortable one. They also helped us to book a taxi when we left. Very reasonable pricing. Only issue we had was finding the place. The information on Klook was not clear as it cited Ottoman but the address was showing at another location. Follow Google Maps.
learned so much during the workshop, had fun trying to make pottery. You could bring home your creation at the end. They have varieties of pottery you may purchase at the shop. Very unique and different. Sharifeh and son was very welcoming aswell. 😄
it was amazing!! the son taught us individually and not in a group. the lesson was great and the hospitality was very warming. i would recommend this to anyone who wants to do pottery. it was affordable and very personalized. I love it!!
great value for money. you get to experience pottery making for a affordable price with a nice local instructor. we were also able to take home our pottery piece but we didn’t know that it will take days for it to dry and to put in an oven
it was a great experience and the place was a welcoming atmosphere which is perfect for beginners, kids, couple and any age. It offers a blend of creative, relaxation and fun . I highly recommend going here. The owner were very friendly and so kind. Well wroth visit.🤍🎨
Beyza, the instructor, was very kind and taught me with great care. You can choose to make either a plate or a vase. There were also many beautiful finished pieces on display. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the colors turn out after they're applied back home.
Really friendly, sweet and hospitable mother and son duo. Value for money experience and get to bring back our artwork. Highly recommend to support and attend this workshop.
