    Wir waren tatsächlich nur zu zwei im Workshop - es war super angenehm, die Location ist auch sehr schön. Wir wurden von der europäischen Seite abgeholt und bis zum Cafe gebracht. Wir haben viel gelernt über die türkische Kaffeekultur, das war ein toller Einblick! Danke!

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    We learned a los about the history of turkish Coffee making and its process. Our guide Tanner was so kind and patient, as my Mother doesn't speak English and he waited for me to translate for her so she was not left out. The only thing is that we were expecting bigger bags of Coffee in our gift pack, they were very little. The rest was perfect.
