We loved how knowledgeable Ali was with picking out scents. Would highly recommendThis was a really interesting and fun workshop! It was fascinating to learn about the history and preparation of traditional Turkish coffee — and the fortune telling part using the coffee grounds was definitely a highlight. Our instructor was very friendly and welcoming, and explained everything clearly and patiently. You could tell he was passionate about what he was doing, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this workshop to anyone interested in turkish coffee, culture, or just looking for a unique experience in Istanbul.Es war ein super cooles Erlebnis. Wir wurden pünktlich abgeholt und auf die Asiatische Seite gebracht. Vor Ort wurden wir herzlich empfangen und es war ein tolles Erlebnis. Kann es nur jedem weiter empfehlen.Świetne warsztaty, przemiły prowadzący! :)great staff, fun time, easy to get to and leaveİlk defa katıldığımız bir atölyeydi. Eğitmenimiz çok destek oldu. Çok keyif aldık.This was such an amazing experience, everyone was super friendly and helpful. They really took the time to show us the techniques and explain the history. Provided snacks and drinks. Definitely not to be missed!!This was such a fun and unique experience! I loved every second! Ali was SO knowledgeable about cologne/perfume and explained the science of top, middle, and base notes really well. He expertly helped me create a signature perfume, of which I will cherish forever, including the memories of the event itself!I really enjoyed this activity.The staff were so friendly and helpful. We were met by the metro station near our accomodation and supported to find the venue in Uskador. Ali was the perfume specialist and talked us through how to smell each individual essential oil , then how to mix them to create different smells. Ali explained about top, middle and base notes and how these will be experienced. Eventually he advised us about our choices of notes and if they would work or advised on small changes. The finished fragrancec was unique to each of us, and presented in a 50ml bottle for us to take away. This activity was really enjoyable, informative and well worth the money. Thank you Ali and your workshop experience.Mustafa was knowledgeable and made the class very interesting.Meeting point in Fatih was easy to find. Loved the atmosphere and Mustafa was very knowledgable. You also get a coffee making set at the end - thank you ❤️Very nice workshop with a great host. Thank you!It was an interesting couple of hours. I was disappointed we used synthetic essences. A cup of tea and biscuits that were dry and 5mm square dont really count as drinks and snacks. I was never offered water on a hot afternoon. I also suggest if you are going to lead us there that you return us to our starting point.humour, créativité, échanges,nous avons passé un excellent momentWe loved the experience, it is a very nice crew. Pick up went smoothly and the results are stunning!Making my own perfume was really fun, the instructor was very friendly and knowledgeable on the subject. If you want a unique experience, memorable time and a great souvenir I couldn't recommend this workshop enough! 10/10 I'd do it again.This was one of the cheapest but most enjoyable experiences I had in Istanbul. The guide met us on the European side to help us reach the destination on the Asian side, paying the fare to get there as well. Then they spent time explaining the activity and gave us time and so many different colours to design our lamps which we then got to take home! Also enjoying complimentary Turkish nibbles and tea! I love looking at my lamp in my home. So worth it!Foi uma experiência incrível! Adorei! Tudo foi perfeito!We were met at the prearranged meeting point by our guides who navigated us through the metro system to arrive at the workshop here we were met with tea coffee and cookies and introduced to Beyzanur who guided us through the activity and gave us an insight into mosaic making and its history. The activity was fun, well organised and run by very friendly people!Wonderful experience! The host provided metro transport tickets and led us from the European side to the Asian side; it helped a lot. The workshop itself was amazing. 2.5 hours of working time seemed to fly by. We spent a wonderful evening there.Ebru Tote Bag Art Workshop

Ali was so knowledgeable and helpful when it came to properly making a perfume. There were 100+ smells to choose from and you can try as many as possible! Very funJe recommende! C'était vraiment super agréable et instructif!We absolutely loved it! Eda was a very friendly and nice guide. She told us about the history and tradition behind the glas painting and then we could already choose a motive and start. We are very happy with our painting she always helped to fix some “mistakes”. It is a lovely souvenir for our trip to Istanbul. They also offer a different variety of workshops. All guides seem very nice. Just remember it is on the Asian side, but you can easily take the ferry and walk there. We can recommend it!The instruction was great! The guide also helped us get to the activity and helped us get us back to our meeting point. He helped us figure out the ferry and metro.Well organised and knowledgeable host. Great activity!Super linda, uma atividade que se deve visitar quando se vai a IstambulFun entertaining and as an avid Turkish Coffee maker i still walked away with new knowledge and enjoyed my experienceMore interesting than I originally imagined.
