Hear from our guests about their experiences in Istanbul Workshops. Personalized, engaging, and memorable.
Wow! Everything was perfect! We learnt how to make the best Turkish Coffee and had a lot of fun talking to our host. It was an informative workshop with a really nice host. The gifts and the certificates given at the end melted our hearts and set a really good example of Turkish hospitality.It was a very fun activity to do. The people are lovely and make you feel very welcome and comfortable. You get a bit of history before you start and learn the right techniques to make a beautiful art work. I recommend this to do this alone or with a small group of friends/family. Also the location is on the asian side of Istanbul and it is beautiful!Superbe activité, j'ai toujours eu envie d'essayer de frabriquer un parfum moi même et c'est chose faite ! Super contact, bonnes explications et accompagnement au top dans la découverte du processus et des manipulations. On reste maitre de nos choix donc c'est vraiment notre parfum personnalisé unique au monde et on est aussi conseillé sur certains choix et étapes. À faire absolument dans sa vie !it was good fun - professional but relaxed session and I now have my very own Turkish mosaic lamp to use!Harika bir deneyim, bütün etkinliklerine katılmayı düşünüyorumEbru Tote Bag Art Workshop

**A Unique and Creative Experience in Istanbul!** Our family recently participated in a Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop in Istanbul, and it was one of the highlights of our trip! The workshop allowed us to design and craft our own mosaic glass lamps, offering a hands-on way to connect with the local culture. The session was well organized, with a knowledgeable instructor guiding us through each step. He provided all the materials and helpful tips to make our designs stand out. The atmosphere was relaxed and inspiring, making the process enjoyable for everyone. The final product is a beautiful handcrafted lamp that we’ll cherish as a memento of our time in Istanbul. The instructor's passion for his craft was evident, and he even took great care in wrapping our lamps securely for easy transport home. This workshop is a must do for anyone looking to create a unique and lasting memory of their visit to Istanbul. It’s a perfect blend of creativity, culture, and fun!I had a great time making the perfume. The process was enjoyable, and everything was explained to me clearly and thoroughly. I would definitely recommend this experience!We would like to thank the workshop representatives , especially Mustafa, for a valuable experience of immersion into such unique technique. We were impressed about the hospitality and caring attention to each participant, as well as the process of decorating the lamp itself. Very nice place, wonderful people and hilarious kittens!We 100% recommend this activity. Everybody involved was lovely and made us feel immediately comfortable. It is such a calming and fun few hours and feels so special taking home the lamps you create. They are also packaged up beautifully for safe travels.the guide, mustafa, explained everything very well and the vibe was very cool with the ppl also paticipating the course. 10/10 would recommend!It was a great afternoon. The instructor met us on the European side and took us through which was really helpfull.

Amazing experience, amazing people and beautiful place. Totally worth, great memoriesEverything was great! Lot of explanations and help. The instructor was well prepared and helpful. Coffee was greatOverall, this was a great activity and one of my favorite moments in Istanbul. You get an education on the history of mosaics in Turkey while enjoying the hands on, creative activity and making a wonderful souvenir in the process. The staff also offers plenty of tea, coffee, cookies and water during the workshop. What impressed me the most is that they had run out of US plug adapters for the lamp the day of my workshop, but arranged to bring one the following morning to my hotel for me. Very above and beyond, and much appreciated! Definitely don’t miss this activity when in Istanbul.Time went by super fast but it really fun and great way to know more about Turkish culture. The instructors were friendly and great company. Would totally recommendмы были на мастер-классе с друзьями в день моего рождения. Весь мастер-класс был только для нас! Кафе очень уютное и организаторы сделали все что бы нам было удобно и комфортно! Азиз хорошо знает русский язык, интересно рассказывает и обладает отличным чувством юмора. В конце мастер-класса ждут очень приятные подарки. Все было здорово, продолжайте в том же духе!We had an amazing time. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. It was a fun activity for both kids and adults. Overall would do it again and highly recommend it as it was money well spent.The workshop was fantastic! We were helped well and we were allowed to do whatever we wanted whenever we wanted. It was relaxing and fun. We were treated very hospitably and were constantly offered something to drink. The self-shaped tile was nicely placed in a frame and well packed. Our rating is definitely a 10/10, highly recommended!Accueil très sympathique dans un lieu caché atypique. l'activité "lampe" de 3h est passée très vite car c'est vraiment interressant.Perfect place - coffe tea and all that smells. Great experience for couples but also singles. Great atmosphere! Thank YouIt was fun to be able to make coffee myself and learn the intricacies, and have a little souvenir to take home. It felt a bit rushed as our guide was late. However, he did give a lot of helpful advice for getting around Istanbul at the end.Traditional Turkish Calligraphy Workshop
