    Traditional Stained Glass Painting Workshop review

    Супер!!! Наш инструктор Эда очень внимательная, милая, заботливая и что было очень важно - терпеливая!!!! Я была с сыном 11 лет и у него сразу не получился рисунок, Эда предложила сделать заново второй! Вышло супер!!! Весь персонал очень вежливый и заботливый! Предлагали чай кофе печенье!!! Потом начался дождь и мы его переждали внутри в компании очень доброй кошки Red

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Amazing activity - the hosts were exceptional, the place was beautiful, and the activity was extremely fun. Lovely to be able to walk away with a piece of Istanbul’s culture that you get to create yourself. A note that if you’re on the European side you’ll have to meet 30mins before the activity to get transportation to the Asian side as the activity takes place there. Not long, maybe a 10min journey but something to be aware of when making the booking! (And the transportation fee is covered).

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    Great experience with Mustafa (Sorry if it is spelled wrong). We had a great pickup on the Eastern side and were escorted by metro to the location. It was just my family for the coffee tasting and everyone was super sweet to our young toddler. We learned so much about the history of coffee and then got to sample with some treats. It was about 2 hours and we had a delightful gift at the end. 10/10 recommend for a unique Turkish experience. Thank you!

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    A very wholesome workshop! I had fun and would recommend doing workshops with this cafe 💯They run lots of other workshops too in their cafe and the venue is so cute! The organisers were all very nice and everything was great. If you are solo travelling, it’s also a great way to meet new people! It was also so amazing walking around the Asian side after, which I hadn’t visited before and you see much more locals there than tourists which is a bonus! The only thing i would say that could be improved is i wish the perfume smell lasted longer. However, despite that i loved the experience and would do it again!

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Wir hatten grossen Gefallen an diesem Workshop! Das entspannende Gestalten der Lampe war echt toll, bei Durst wurde man gut versorgt und auch einen kleinen Snack gab es noch dazu. Die Lampen sind sehr schön geworden, wir haben grosse Freude am Endprodukt — Empfehlung für Gross und Klein!

    Perfume Making Workshop review

    Es war eine coole Erfahrung die wir in Istanbul sammeln konnten! Der Guide war sehr nett und auch das Setting hat uns gut gefallen. Ich hätte mir ein wenig mehr Unterstützung bezüglich was vielleicht besser nicht zusammenpasst oder seltsam riechen könnte gewünscht, da wir absolut keine Ahnung zuvor hatten — aber das ist jetzt wirklich nur eine mikrige Anmerkung. Es lohnt sich im Grossen und Ganzen!

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    It was a special experience for me to make Turkish Mosaic Lamp in traditional-way . People were nice there and the time has passed so quickly because we concentrated on making beautiful Mosaic things. I spent all Energy in this class! But this was worth to do it. I really enjoyed this special time. Thank you!!
