Istanbul Workshops

I really enjoyed the workshop. The instructors were friendly and the hospitality was great. I had a great time and I got a nice lamp out of it.

a wonderful value for money activity. our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. the range of oils was huge and you leave with a 50ml bottle of perfume which is great. a great way to spend a morning.

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

Iilham was a great guide. I booked a late coffee workshop so it was just me for that time. He was very friendly and informative. It was a fun experience. Would recommend for anyone's first time in Istanbul. Thanks Iilham for such a warm welcome. 🙏🏽

it was soooo much fun! Ilham was such a fun and informative instructor. He was very interactive with us and engaged with us. i would recommend taking this class when you’re in istanbul. its in a very artsy and colorful area, so much inspiration around. and you get to take home something turkish that you made by hand 🫶🏻

It is super interesting and well planned workshop. The instructor will share a lot of Turkish coffee history and you will make yr own coffee.

Why isn't this working? Seriously, why won't it work? It's honestly amazing to be able to spend time like this in Turkey for this price, and it was the best, most unforgettable moment in Istanbul. It was so, so wonderful to be able to make a souvenir of Istanbul with my own hands. Since everyone else was out playing and didn't know about this, I got to have a quiet class all to yourself, which made it even better. Even if you're not crafty, they have various templates ready, and I found what I wanted on Pinterest, placed the glass over my phone, and traced it, so it felt like doing Glass Deco from when I was a kid. It is absolutely, positively not difficult at all, and the instructor was so kind and helpful. They even gave us Turkish tea and cookies to enjoy while working. I want to keep this all to myself, but since I want to visit again next time I'm here, please, if you're reading this, buy in at the bottom. The end.

Staff was super friendly. I loved every minute of it. It's best to do this activity first thing when you visit the area as the papers take up to 2 hours to dry. You can walk around and sightsee after the class, and then come back to pick up the finished papers.

The experience itself was quite short. Since I'm not very good at English, I was using a translation app to listen to the history of Turkish coffee. Perhaps noticing this, the speaker slowed down so I could understand better. I had seen it in videos before, but I was able to experience it freshly with various senses: sight, smell, and taste.
