Mir hat der Workshop außerordentlich gut gefallen. Bünyamin war sehr nett und hat die Geschichte des Kaffees in der Türkei sehr interessant vorgestellt. Der selbstgemachte Kaffee war super lecker und das Set zum mit nach Hause nehmen perfekt um das Kaffee Ritual in der Heimat vorzuführen.

The workshop was very well-organized. The space is very cozy and cute. The instructors / guides were friendly, patient, and well-informed about what they are offering. The area is also really nice to walk around and discover while you're at it - overall it's a 10/10, would definitely recommend!

Es wurde im Vorfeld Kontakt aufgenommen und drei Optionen geboten wo man sich treffen kann. Auch kurzfristige Änderungen dass man doch den Treffpunkt gewechselt hat, waren kein Problem. Es wurde kostenlos Tee und Kaffee gereicht. Zeynep hat uns gut etwas zu den traditionellen Lampen erzählt und uns geholfen diese zu designen und fertig zu stellen. Ich finde es war ein gelungener Workshop

Locale giovane e fresco. I ragazzi sono ben organizzati, preparati e super disponibili! La lampada è meravigliosa e il fatto che ognuno scelga come personalizzarla la rende unica

Very interesting dive into the Turkish coffee culture! Definitely worth to visit!

Sehr interessant, nette location, Ali super. Es hat Spaß gemacht . Empfehlenswert !!

Great explanation about Turkish Coffee history, Turkish Drinking Coffee Culture and Turkish method to do Fortune Telling. It's worth it.

A very good experience if you have a couple of hours free in your itinerary. Only drawback is that this is on the Asia side so commute especially for this can be a hassle. Would recommend to cover this on your Asia-side day. Ali is a good guide who helped me reschedule the workshop as my flight got delayed. Great giveaways as well. I am going to remember this experience.

Beautiful lamps!

it was just magical!!!! thank you!!

Attending the Turkish mosaic lamp class in Istanbul was an absolute delight! Alina, the instructor, showcased a remarkable level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Her guidance made the intricate art of mosaic crafting accessible and enjoyable. The constant flow of coffee and tea refills added a warm touch to the experience, enhancing the overall ambiance. The location itself was superb, providing a captivating backdrop to the creative process. An unforgettable experience blending art, culture, and hospitality!

Fantastic experience, we both loved it and learnt a lot!

Super activité Aleyna est passionnée et tres sympathique.l'endroit est atypique et cosy. Mon mari qui n'est pas du tout manuel et réticent au départ a beaucoup apprécié et est tres fier de sa lampe. Je vous recommande cette activité vous pourrez par la suite visiter le quartier d'uskudar qui est une bouffée d'air frais a Istanbul

I thought it was a great experience. The host was welcoming and was able to assist and answer any question. Also she had great knowledge of the Turkish lamp making.

Bellissima attività! Alí è stato un istruttore perfetto: chiaro, paziente e disponibile. Ci ha accompagnato dal punto d’incontro fino al laboratorio ed oltre all’attività ha saputo darci ottimi consigli sulla città. L’attività può essere svolta anche da chi non parla un ottimo inglese. Bravissimi! Le lampade realizzate sono un ricordo che ora illumina la nostra casa.

Bardzo dobry czas, kreatywny, wyciszający na byciu w tworzeniu, po którym została cudna pamiątka, która cudnie przypomina o tej wspaniałej podróży.

Excellent, the activity was very fun in a nice setting. It was great to be able to bring back a handmade memento, and I highly recommend this to fellow travelers!

We absolutely loved this workshop! We were picked up right at 2:30 on the European side and brought over to the shop via metro. We were given tea, coffee, and cookies as we learned about the history of the lamps. They had many colors and choices, and all the other guests were great. Be mindful that the lamp is wired to Turkish voltage and plugs, and as an American I’ll have to figure out how to get it rewired so it can work at home.

This expierence is well worth the price you pay. The lamps came out beautifully and hosts were very kind to let us in even though we were late. I recommend it to everyone

The workshop was great. Taking home the mosaic lamps is certainly the highlight of Istanbuk trip. Highly recommend it

A beautiful experience and Ali was an amazing guide!

The experience was great, learning how to make Turkish coffee and meeting other people. I appreciate the host meeting me on the European side and getting me to the location. It was really nice the gift we got at the end since I was not expecting it.

Our guide took us on the train to venture to Asia side of Istanbul. The location also has a cute cafe and delicious budget restaurants nearby. Nice to get away from the tourist crowds and explore local neighborhoods.

The activity itself was very well organised and our guide Zeynep was super sweet, helpful and incredibly fun to be with! This is my first time in Istanbul and I will admit, the workshop all together was one of the highlights of the trip! Excellent work!
