    Tutto ottimo, bravissimo il ragazzo che ci ha spiegato la storia ed aiutato nella realizzazione del caffè. Siamo stati molto bene, è un ottimo modo anche per fare amicizia con le altre persone 🫶🏻

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Très bien! Les explications sont très bonnes. Tout le monde est agréable. Ça passe super super vite. Décidez vous vite sur les couleurs / formes car vous aurez 30 min pour faire ce choix avant collage. S’il y avait des points à améliorer : - avoir plus de couleurs de mosaïques disponibles, là il manquait par exemple le bleu foncé donc si vous avez une idée précise ce n’est pas vraiment réalisable. - expliquer la signification des couleurs & formes serait un vrai plus

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    This is an amazing experience - almost a must have whether you are a couple or a family in Istanbul. The entire staff are incredibly kind, patient and fun. We went with 4 adults and my three kids - they had a blast -12,12,7 years old. The price point is incredible for a family experience and we were all happy to take our beautiful lamps home. Thank you so much!!! If I could give them 11 stars we would!!!

    Great Class. Really fun. Pro tip, don't drink the coffee before you have to do the fine line work at the end. You need a very steady hand.

    Turkish Tile - Ceramic Art Workshop review

    Wonderful experience! I took part in the Tile Painting Workshop led by Zeynep - a wonderful artist, and such a sweet and kind person! You are provided with all the materials, and you receive guidance and advice on how to progress with your painting, what I personally really appreciated and I was very happy with the final result. Definitely the best souvenir I’ll bring back home from Istanbul. On top of that, during the workshop Isra would regularly check up on me, strike a conversation, offer me more tea, coffee or biscuits - she was so lovely, and I felt so well taken care of! Teşekkürler Zeynep and Isra for making my experience so memorable ❤️
