What to expect
Cappadocia in central Turkey is famous for its dramatic landscapes and rich cultural heritage, including the traditional Turkish Coffee on Sand workshop. Turkish coffee, introduced to the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century, has long symbolized hospitality and social connection. In this experience, high-quality coffee beans are finely ground before being brewed in a small copper pot called a cezve. The pot is placed on heated sand, allowing gentle and even heat distribution that slowly brings out the coffee’s rich aroma and flavor. This sand-brewing method creates a distinctive preparation process. Visitors gain a hands-on cultural experience, learning traditions while enjoying an authentic and flavorful cup of Turkish coffee in Cappadocia.





Reviews
ok and informative. though quite short but it was indicated in the tour it will only last 30 minutes
Mr. Haroon was very kind and explained everything carefully, even sharing jokes in Japanese. He spoke slowly so that I, someone not very proficient in English, could understand, and I really enjoyed learning about history. He also took many photos and videos for me, and I got to experience wearing traditional ethnic clothing. Even though I was traveling alone, I had a truly wonderful time. It was such a great experience that I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Cappadocia. Thank you very much.
Teacher Auger is very humorous. He first gave us Turkish black tea and biscuits, then began to teach us how to make Turkish coffee. He then asked us to make it ourselves and asked us to wear Ottoman Turkish costumes to make coffee and then film the video. The whole process was very interesting and novel.
Tutor speaks English very well and share many history and culture about turkish coffee with me.
Great experience for the workshops. The guide was really helpful and always giving us treat! such a good memories to spend in Cappadocia
THE COFFEE WORKSHOP WITH HAROON WAS REALLY INTERESTING AND FUN. IT WAS GOOD TO TELL ME ABOUT THE HISTORY OF COFFEE IN TURKEY AND TO BE ABLE TO MAKE COFFEE BY MYSELF IN TRADITIONAL CLOTHES. THE COFFEE TASTED GREAT AND THE TURKISH DELIGHT WE HAD TOGETHER GO WELL WITH COFFEE. IT WAS A SHORT TIME, BUT IT WAS REALLY GOOD TO BE ABLE TO ENJOY IT WITH A SMILE:)
Kubi is a good coffee instructor He explained it in such a pleasant and relaxed way that he didn't lose his smile at every moment. And at some point, I turned around and found that I was already enjoying tea time with my conversation by making Turkish sand coffee with my own hands, dressed in special clothes. It was a very relaxing and pleasant time. And he eagerly took videos and photos with his iPhone and sent them to me. I recommend this class to anyone who is happy with it and loves coffee and wants a special experience.
I joined the Turkish coffee class and it was such a meaningful and enjoyable experience. The instructor explained the history and culture behind Turkish coffee, which made the whole process feel very authentic
Joining the tour with Uğur was a fantastic experience. He is a charming and humorous coffee teacher who carefully explains each step, guiding us patiently so we could truly understand the process. The hands-on approach made learning fun and memorable, and he even took photos of us at the end to capture the moment. Great for both beginners and coffee enthusiasts.
I had a fantastic experience at the Turkish coffee workshop! The hands-on approach made it easy to learn how to make authentic Turkish coffee. Our guide was excellent, providing just the right amount of guidance throughout the process. The coffee we made was delicious, and it paired perfectly with the Turkish delight. Highly recommend this workshop for anyone looking to explore the art of Turkish coffee!
