    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Es war total entspannend die Lampen in der kleinen Gruppe herzustellen. Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich jedem raten kann. Die Lampe kommt inklusive Glühbirne so dass man zuhause gleich etwas vom Urlaubsfeeling hat.

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    Мастер класс для меня провёл Азиз. Прекрасная идея на мой взгляд. Восхищает современная молодежь, которая придумывает такие интересные проекты. Мы погрузились в историю кофе, что в давние времена изначально его пили султаны. Я узнала происхождние самого популярного бренда - Мехмет Эфенди. Научилась, буду надеяться, что научилась делать кофе по-турецки))) Азиз отлично говорит на русском, приятный собеседник, глубоко владеет материалом. Понравилось и рекомендую!

    Amazing Activity for an afternoon. Picked up on the European side by the friendly Aziz and brought to the Asian side via metro (included in the price). Very nice cafe and excellent instruction with free tea, coffee and water throughout. Enjoyed some delicious cookies and crepes while we waited for our lamps to dry. Bumped into the manager as we were about to get the boat back and he kindly brought us on the boat back to the European side as part of the experience. 10/10 activity for solo travellers, couples and families!
