    Ragazzi con GetYourGuide non rimani mai deluso. Un altra magica avventura immersi nei sentori di più di 50 essenze per creare il proprio profumo e portarlo a casa con te! Ali è stato un tipo in gamba nel condurre il laboratorio, il posto davvero fico e la ragazza che ci ha guidati al laboratorio davvero carina e attenta.. un grazie va anche ai camerieri che continuavano a portarci bevande e biscottini!che dire? Da non perdere soprattutto per la qualità/prezzo

    Istanbul:Original Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop w/ Snacks review

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wir hatten ein wundervolles Erlebnis mit Mehmet Fatih und Bahar, unserer großartigen Reisebegleitung. Bahar hat uns in Sirkeci abgeholt und uns zunächst einen spannenden Einblick in die Untergrundstation gegeben, die viele Einheimische nutzen. Bei der Ankunft wurden wir herzlich von Mehmet Fatih und seinem Team empfangen. Er nahm sich viel Zeit, uns Schritt für Schritt in die faszinierende Kunst der Glasgestaltung einzuführen. Dazu gab es frische Kekse, Tee, Kaffee und weitere Getränke – einfach perfekt! Der Workshop war ein absolutes Highlight. Das Ambiente, die Herzlichkeit und die harmonische Atmosphäre zwischen den Mitarbeitenden haben uns beeindruckt. Der Ort hat etwas Magisches, das uns sofort dazu inspiriert hat, uns über weitere Workshops zu informieren. Ein wunderbarer Ort, um seiner Kreativität freien Lauf zu lassen. Vielen Dank für diese unvergessliche Erfahrung!

    L’activité était incroyable. On vous apprend l’histoire du chocolat jusqu’à la confection. Le chef était très attentif, le manager a un anglais parfait qui permet de bien comprendre. Leurs bienveillances et leurs gentillesses rendent l’activité encore meilleure. Sans parler de la qualité des produits qui a un goût incroyablement bon.

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    Thai was an excellent class! It was very well organized, someone met all of us downtown Sultanahmet and took us on the metro to the Asian side. After the class we received gifts, it was very special. To get back I took a ferry which was such a good experience on its own. So I definitely highly recommend! The studio where our class was help also offers the total of 5-7 different classes, make site to check them all out.
