    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    It was perfect! They were so kind and helpful. I got a little birthday surprise…sooo they were soooo lovely! Just one remark: maybe more color options would be nice, but it’s really just a small good suggestion. ☺️

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    Her şey çok güzeldi, çok memnun kaldık. Parfümlerimizi yaparken eğitmenimizin yönlendirmeleri ve herkesle tek tek ilgilenmesi çok iyiydi, herkesin kendi zevkine göre çok çeşitli parfümler ortaya çıktı. Sadece herkesin yaptığı karışımı koklayabilmeyi isterdim, parfümler şişelendikten sonrasında kimin parfümü nasıl olmuş bilmek, esansların birleşiminden ortaya çıkan sonucu görmek ufuk açıcı olurdu.

    Tolles Event das viel Spaß gemacht hat und eine schöner Ausgleich zum Gewusel in der Großstadt ist. Kadir und seine Kollegen waren sehr nett und immer hilfsbereit. Die Lampe ist ein super Andenken.

    Zeynap ist eine hervorragende Workshop Leiterin, unser Sohn (8) fühlte sich auch sehr wohl und hat eine wunderschöne Lampe hergestellt, Bahar hat uns vom Treffpunkt abgeholt und alles hat wunderbar geklappt, auf jeden Fall weiter zu empfehlen.

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Der Workshop war sehr schön, man wurde gut beim Erstellungsprozess betreut und hat am Ende ein ganz individuelles Andenken an den Urlaub. Man muss allerdings ein bisschen mit Zeitstress umgehen können :D Am Ende haben es aber alle Teilnehmer geschafft. Tipp: Der Workshop ist nicht wie angegeben auf der europäischen Seite Istanbuls, dort ist nur der Treffpunkt. Die Überfahrt nach Üskudar (asiatische Seite) ist allerdings ebenfalls mit im Preis inklusive.

    Il workshop è ben strutturato, soluzione perfetta per trascorrere un pomeriggio in maniera tranquilla, a contatto con le persone del posto. Ottimo il servizio di trasporto incluso così come gli snack, tè, acqua e caffè. Staff professionale e gentile. Dopo l’introduzione e la spiegazione abbiamo creato ognuno la propria lampada, una volta finita abbiamo aspettato 45 minuti prima che abbia finito di asciugarsi. È stato bellissimo portarla a casa come souvenir. Ps: nello stesso locale fanno anche altri tipi di workshop interessanti

    We attended Perfume creating workshop. It was a fantastic experience. We were offered plenty of seducing scents to chose from and were guided perfectly to create our own fragrance. Yunus has a deep knowledge, he is fun and communicative person. It was also nice to be taken on the other side of Bosporus and feel the atmosphere of the traditional wooden house. Highly recommend!

    A instrutora Zainab foi muito amável, amamos a aula. Tudo perfeito! Somente reocmendariamos que a atividade tivesse limitação de idade, pois tinham crianças muito pequenas que atrapalharam o andamento da aula. Tirando isso estava 100%.
