Fantastic 5.0
Wonderful and relaxing experience where you get to be the Sultanah when at the baths. The staffs were very nice and professional. The facilities are clean. Turkish bath is a must do activity in Istanbul.

This is highly recommended for relieving fatigue from a long flight. You can wash your entire body, and you may even be able to pour hot water over your head, so it's a good idea to bring your makeup, hair iron, etc., as needed. A hair dryer was provided. The entrance is in a different location than what is shown on Google Maps. Climb the slope and turn right, and you will see the entrance.

Relaxing experience. I enjoyed a lot the envoronment knowing it's almost 300 years. The hammam was rather a "spa" soft and relaxing experience ranther than full exfoliation like I receive during moroccan bath. It's just worth to come and experience the history.

We had an excellent time making our lamps at this workshop! The staff are all quite young, and the mood is very fun and relaxed. You can arrive there or be picked up (transport tickets are included) and take the metro from the European side. The glass pieces are handmade, although a lot of them were very roughly cut and you sometimes have to look for a good piece (in certain colors - others were almost all perfect). You'll be guided in the process of decorating the lamp, with a short background about mosaic art. The workshop itself doubles as a cafè where you can wait for your lamp to dry before you take it home (lamp is included in the price, in case anyone had any doubts like I did). As a honorable mention, Yunus, who picked us up, was nice and shared a lot of fun facts about Istanbul, Nihal, who led the workshop, was lovely and helped us when we struggled, and Isra, who helped us pack, gave us great recommendations for places to visit. All in all, we're very happy we went!

llham was a great and engaging teacher! We made a cup of Turkish coffee and learned how to read the coffee grounds — such a fun and unique experience. At the end, we even got a small bag of coffee and a cup as a gift. Highly recommended!

It was a very fulfilling experience. The instructor was a young man who taught us kindly and carefully. We were very satisfied with the finished Turkish lamps. They even packaged them using cushioning material. There was one thing about the payment. I had paid in advance with Klook and I had a receipt, but after the experience ended I was asked to pay again, so I had to pay again. If I had the receipt in the local language from Klook, I would have been able to show it.

I participated in a perfume making class for the first time. About 16 of us sat together at a long table. There was also time for introductions, so it felt like we were interacting with each other. I consulted with the instructor about the scents and was able to decide easily.
