Istanbul Kulttuurikokemukset

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 🫶🏻

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!

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! ⭐️

Kübra oli todella ihana ohjaaja ja veti työpajan erinomaisesti! Hän oli erittäin perusteellinen tarinankerronnassa ja teki työpajasta erittäin interaktiivisen. Nautimme siitä paljon ja meillä oli hauskaa.

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 :)

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

The best way to remember Istanbul ❤️🫶 I don't usually leave reviews, but I came here specifically to leave one. The instructor was incredibly kind and taught us so well. They patiently waited until we finished and helped us throughout, so I'm taking home a beautiful souvenir! They also kept offering tea and snacks, and chatting with them made me feel like I was at my Turkish grandmother's house 🥹. The location is super convenient, just a short walk from the tram, and the studio is so lovely with plenty of sunlight! I wish the owner great success~ ♡

Jos pidät käsityökokemuksista, et voi jättää tätä aktiviteettia väliin. Paikan päällä vaihdoin tekemään mosaiikkilampunvarjostimen. Heillä on myös muita kursseja, kuten kynttilänjalkoja, savenvalantaa ja marmorointia. Valmistumisen jälkeen tunsin suurta tyytyväisyyttä, ja sain lampunjalustan kotiin vietäväksi.

Ihana kokemus! Todella nautimme siitä ja suosittelemme lämpimästi.
