Hear from our guests about their experiences in Istanbul Workshops. Personalized, engaging, and memorable.
Really great workshop activity with Mustafa, who was really passionate about Turkish coffee making, its history and traditions, and this showed throughout the whole session. Learnt so much during the time and the interactive approach keep the whole group engaged. Would thoroughly recommend.A must do in the city! Excellent vibes, hospitality and creative. Mustafa and all the people there and the cafe are amazing and polite! Mustafa is passionate to share his knowledge with the guests! I totally recommend it!The Workshop took a little longer than expected. Maybe add another 15min to give some grace time... Overall FantasticWhat a brilliant day we had! Ali came to meet us on the European side and escorted us over to the Asian side - a wonderful relief from having to work out how to get somewhere new. Ali is a great guy and the venue that the workshop was held in was nothing short of stunning. Our lamps are beautiful. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity!Amazing experience! Completely exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Mustafa, was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about all things coffee and Turkish history. Super informative session; we also met lovely people who were taking the same class. Fully recommend.This workshop was a lot of fun. I live in Istanbul and have several friends who visit regularly. They have seen most of the major sites and I was casting about for something new to do. Both my friend and I enjoyed our afternoon. We posted photos of our lamps and other friends expressed interest in doing this on their next visits.C’était absolument génial. Notre guide a pris le temps de tout nous expliquer et de peaufiner notre lampe afin qu’elle soit parfaite. Boissons à volonté comprises, on était aux petits soins. Je recommandeBeautiful workshopUne activité incroyable, des gens formidables ! Je recommande a 1000% ! Nous avons adoré !Спасибо большое, Aziz, было очень интересно, прекрасно организованный мастер-класс. Благодаря ему, я поняла свои основные ошибки при варке в джезве.)) И очень было приятно получить по мимо Сертификата еще и подарки. Всем рекомендую пройти данный мастер-класс!!!!!!Азиз-ооочень харизматичный юноша, можно его слушать бесконечно. Отлично владеет русским языком. Материал интересен, структурирован, ничего лишнего. История кофе, появление его в Турции, способы приготовления. Мы сами приготовили 2 разных вида кофе, плюс нас угостили ещё одним, уникальным. Погадали. В конце ещё и подарки подарил.Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop

Had such a great time doing this workshop!! Aziz was easy to find at the pickup point, and is incredibly friendly and helpful with any knowledge of Istanbul! We had nothing but laughs during the workshop, and it’s the perfect souvenir to bring home! If you’re a fan of cats, they also have the cutest lil helper during the workshop!!! I’d come back and book this again 10/10!!!!Excelente! Ambiente super agradável, dentro de um café.Азиз - очень приятный молодой человек. Он хорошо владеет английским и русским языками. Он встретил нас около станции метро и проводил до мастерской. Потом был интересный рассказ об истории кофе и сам мастер-класс по приготовлению турецкого кофе. Буду теперь пробовать варить дома.Very detailed and knowledgeableThe whole experience was amazing. Our mentor met at the set time at a set place, took us to the work shop which was hardly 10 minutes away. Everything was explained at the work shop, full help and guidance was provided throughout the event, coffee was great, everyone from the workshop team were very helpful, friendly and supportive. Our mentor Mustafa was outstanding and ready to go out of way to help throughout and even after the class took us back to the station when it was pouring outside. Had a great time in the workshop and also ended up with a good looking Turkish mosaic lamp! I would definitely recommend this activity.Super activité. Super explication. MerciEs hat viel Spaß gemacht.The activity was very interesting, we learned a lot about history of coffee making and how to prepare real Turkish coffee.Great relaxing activity in a fantastic venue. The area has many restaurants and is great for tourism before or after the workshopEs war ein super cooler Workshop! Zu Beginn gab es ganz entspannt einen türkischen Çay zum ankommen. Die Mitarbeiter sind total freundlich und cool drauf. Das Herstellen der Lampen hat mega viel Spaß gemacht. Zudem war das Ergebnis super. Wir waren sehr zufrieden und happy mit unseren Lampen. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist unschlagbar! Kann mir tatsächlich vorstellen den Kurs nochmal zu besuchen, wenn ich das nächste mal in Istanbul bin. Danke für die schöne Zeit bei euch! 😊Perfume Making Workshop

Mustafa was a fantastic host and shared a huge amount of info about turkisk coffee traditions and how to make it. Clear communications before the event, which made it easy on the day. The course was well structured with the right balance of theory and practical. Making the coffee was fun and the fortune telling was fun and a nice touch. The day was rounded off with a nice little present to take away.Определенно рекомендую. Отличный мастер классAbsolutely amazing service from beginning to the end. Informative, fun😉Der ganze Workshop war rundum gelungen! Es hatte bereits mit einer pünktlichen und freundlichen Abholung begonnen und war bis zum Ende unterhaltsam, witzig, abwechslungsreich und lehrreich. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und würden jedem empfehlen ebenfalls an dem Workshop teilzunehmen. Nun können wir auch die Kaffeezeremonie mit nach Hause nehmen.I can only agree with what has already been mentioned in the other reviews. We spent a lovely afternoon away from the hustle and bustle on the asian side of Istanbul in a nice café where Eda and Ali showed us how to stain glass. Note: you can choose your motif from a variety of templates, so you don't have to be creative. Thank you for the wonderfull afternoon, Eda and Ali.Ich konnte sehr viel über die Geschichte von der türkischen Kaffee lernen. Der Guide hat uns alles sehr genau und interessant erklärt. Den Kaffee selber zu machen und auch noch auf so viele wichtige Details zu achten, hat besonders Spass gemacht! Ich empfehle den Workshop allen, die sich vom türkischen Kaffee und Kultur inspirieren möchten!Very efficient and well organised activity our guide was Mustafa . He was prompt and communicated very well . Very insightful and exciting must do activity . Loved it !! Thank you MustafaL’activité était vraiment très sympa, notre « guide » Eda a été très patiente, très accessible et a fait beaucoup d’efforts pour communiquer en anglais avec nous. Je recommande, ça fait un souvenir sympa à ramener d’un séjour à IstanbulGot a question? We're here to answer! If you don't see your question here, contact with us directly on our Contact Page →
