Hear from our guests about their experiences in Istanbul Workshops. Personalized, engaging, and memorable.
My wife and I had a fantastic time doing this experience! we learned so much about Turkish coffee and Turkish history as well. Bunyamin was GREAT!Can't recommend highly enough. You don't need to be a coffee aficionado to appreciate it either. It's a great review of the role that coffee has played in Turkey over the years. Apart from that you'll get to make your own and taste several other coffees. Definitely do it.The best way to learn about Turkish Coffee Culture! We had such a great time and highly recommend this experience.We took the Turkish Lamp worship for my birthday and it did not disappoint. Me and 3 of my girlfriends made lamps. We learned the history behind this style of lamp. Our host was very informative. If you are looking for a cultural experience then look no further. This lamp can be fitted for American voltage or other. You personalize the design you want with over 30 options of tile colors. The atmosphere was great! This is a must try!We recently had the pleasure of attending the Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop hosted by Bünyamin and his team, and I cannot recommend it enough! From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of magical. 🌈✨The workshop took place in a charming and well-equipped studio, which provided the perfect atmosphere for learning about this beautiful art form. Bünyamin and his team were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and patient, guiding us through the process of creating our very own mosaic lamps. The hands-on experience was fantastic, and I was thrilled with the final product – a stunning, unique lamp that I can't wait to display in my home. 🏠💡One of the most amazing and unique experience that we were able to do in Istanbul. Highly recommended! It’s a fun and engaging way to learn the mosaic art and a little bit of history. Bünyamin was such a great host, he provided all the materials and there were just a lot of colored mosaic to pick. I would definitely do it again if I come back to Istanbul. Bonus part, you can take the lamp you designer at home as a sweet souvenir.This was an absolutely amazing experience! We had a great time learnings about the culture and we made a new friend with Bunyamin and his kitty Crepe. Highly recommend checking this out.This is a must do if you come to Instanbul. Bünyamin was very helpful even after. It was fun making the lamps, definitely something I would cherish for a lifetime.A must do!! So much fun to design and create our own lamp. Best souvenir!A great activity with a very engaging host! Loved the fortune tellingI was looking for interesting things to do during my trip to Istanbul, and Im so glad I decided to do this airbnb experience! I'll be honest Bunyamin was very kind, informative, and helpful. He made the experience fun and we even shared Turkish tea after as a small group. he's so personable! I definitely recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Istanbul. I dont even drink coffee, I was more interesting in the History aspect, but the coffee was tasty!Turkish Tile Painting Art Workshop

Highly recommend if you have the time to spare while in Istanbul. The program is very well thought out and the cafe/space is beautiful.Absolutely no chance to get it wrong. I definitely recommend it. Amazing experience ❤️🇹🇷Not only the Turkish coffee story, Bunyamin also cover the coffee history. Definitely worth for moneyThis experience is a must do for anyone in Istanbul who loves coffee! Bunyamin was a great and thoughtful host… he even met us at a close metro station to our hostel to make it easier for us to find the experience. We learned a lot about coffee and got to taste some interesting Turkish specialties. I can’t recommend this experience enough!This AirBnb experience was an incredible way to get to sample turkish tea/coffee and become immersed in Turkish culture. The art of making the lamps was made easy through the guidance of Bunyamin - serving as a storyteller and an artistic guide. You get to create and keep a small piece of Turkish art for your own home! Thank you, this was a great experience!experience was excellent and highly recommend for people wanting to get a great introduction to Turkish culture and history via way of coffee.Fantastic experience, Bunyamin is a very personable and expert host/presenter. I really appreciated his easy style and his questions to understand our baseline understanding. The coffee workshop was a great mix of information, humor, and hands-on experience. We all liked the fact that the workshop covered a mix of Turkish coffee culture, fortune telling, and the actual making of the coffee: a unique experience.This was such a unique and wonderful experience! It was very comfortable, fun, and something I would recommend to everyone!Súper recomendado ♥️ Me gustó mucho la atención que tuvo Aleyna, es una actividad entretenida para llevarte un buen recuerdo de EstambulBunyamin was an exceptional host! He met us promptly at our tram stop on the European side of Istanbul and helped us to navigate via the Metro to the Asian side of the city. His coffee shop and workspace were located in a great neighborhood that we also enjoyed exploring after our workshop. Our supplies for the class were prearraged and ready for us when we arrived. Bunyamin taught us the history and culture around coffee in Istanbul as we worked together to prepare our coffees. The fortune telling lesson was a fun perk of the class. The experience is the best and most long-lasting souvenir you could take with you from Istanbul...I definitely recommend booking with Bunyamin if you're planning a visit!Leather Crafting Workshop

Bunyamin was so kind and easy to talk with, and he has such an incredible coffee shop! Everything was amazing and we laughed a lot, we are so thankful for the lesson and will be making Turkish coffee at home now.Highly suggested as an experience! We had a great experience in the workshop!The place was lovely and it was a great opportunity to learn more about the culture by talking with Bunyamin. The process was lovely and it will be a memory we will always cherish in our hearts!Thank you Bunyamin for also showing us how to reach to the airport. ☺️It was a nice experience to create a turkish mosaik lamp. We had a big sortiment of colorful mosaikpieces. Besides that, the cafeshop which was inside the workshop was a hidden Gem! I can highly recomend that activity to make new friends and new lamps :)Hey everybody, this workshop is the best you can do in Istanbul! Honestly your host will be the friendliest, coolest and most professional airbnb experiences guy you will ever meet. We are so thankful and made a lot of new friends. Do yourself something good and just do it!It was an excellent experience, Bunyamin was very attentive and had great communicationBunyamin created a wonderful experience you should not miss when you come to Istanbul and would like to do something a little more creative!He even picked me up from the European side and then invited me into his workshop where I felt warmly welcomed! He gave a very nice introduction into mosaics and then I had plenty of time to create my lamp design. He always gave advice when needed and offered plenty of tea, which I almost forgot because I zoned out! I really enjoyed the experience and highly recommend it for individuals and groups alike! I'm looking forward to trying another experience with him!Teşekkür ederim for having me.Echt süße Menschen! Alle haben sich echt viel Mühe gegeben uns die beste Erfahrung erleben zu lassen und wir konnten uns schön viel Zeit lassen. Preis Leistungsträger Verhältnis ist top und der Preis für das Workshop auch berechtigt :)Würde es jeden aus Herzen empfehlen ♥️Bunyamin was super communicative and helpful as we booked our experience and we really enjoyed getting to know him. The location of the experience is really neat. Overall we enjoyed the experience. My suggestion to Bunyamin is to let your guests drink more coffee during the experience! I think most people who want to learn about coffee like to be fairly caffeinated :).What a great host, Ben was so thoughtful as to meet us near our location to escort us to the venue, a super, buzzing cafe atmosphere where, within our own private area, he guided us through the history and process of this activity, the creation of a super mosaic glass lamp to take home with us! Such fun, good company and lots of tea and Turkish coffee to help us along, a really super activity and Ben is such a knowledgable, friendly host, thoroughly recommendGot a question?
