Featured Experience
Experience the 800-year-old Mukabele ceremony at Kasımpaşa Mevlevihanesi. Istanbul's hidden Mevlevi lodge, founded in the 1620s.
Zeynab and Eunice who helped us were the best! We messed up the location and they still let us do the workshop which was really great. They were also great working with our Iranian and American group, speaking some Turkish and some English.Nous avons apprécié cette activité, ma fille, mon frère et moi-même. Nous avons facilement trouvé le lieu. Les explications étaient claires. Le matériel adéquat. Nous avons même eu droit à des explications en français (pour ma fille de 4 ans et demi, c'était parfait). Il est préférable, si vous avez un peu de temps, de laisser vos lampes sécher sur place (après l'activité) pour revenir la chercher 2h00 (ou plus) plus tard. Je recommande cette activité qui est un vrai souvenir (fait main, par soi).We enjoyed the Turkish coffee making workshop! Our host was very friendly and helpful in teaching us the process, and it was a fun 2 hours. The activity takes place on the Asian side of Istanbul, not at the meeting point; it was really helpful that someone met us at the meeting point and showed us the way to the workshop via the metro (and paid the fare)… we had plenty of time, but be aware that you need to arrive 30 minutes earlier than the start time if you’re on the European side in order to travel to the workshop location.I did this solo on a trip to Istanbul and it turned out to be one of my favorite experiences of the whole trip. The highlight is getting to create your own custom scent from scratch — you're guided through different fragrance notes, and by the end you walk away with a perfume that's genuinely yours. I loved how hands-on it was. Highly recommend!
Such a unique activity- would recommend to anyone visiting Istanbul. You are able to design the lamps in any style of your choosing and keep your creation after.cheap cost for a personalized scent, endless tea and snacks, plus transportation from the European side over to the Asian side of Istanbul all covered in the charge
