Die Kaffezeremonie war unglaublich schön und ich habe sehr viel gelernt. Mustafa und alle anderen dort sind sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Haben dort nette Leute kennen gelernt und eine sehr schöne Zeit gehabt. Kann ich wirklich sehr empfehlen. Zum Abschluss haben wir noch ein Zertifikat bekommen und eine Kaffe Tasse als Souvenir.

¡Una actividad espectacular! Es súper divertido, tienes varias plantillas para elegir. Te ayudan en todo momento y te explican como hacerlo para que quede perfecto. Durante toda la actividad te ofrecen bebidas. Además, al acabarlo te enmarcan la vidriera en un cuadro muy bonito y te Dan un certificado. Actividad que sin duda voy a recomendar.

Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

This was a fun and interesting way to dodge a couple of hours. The coffee lesson and history was interesting and the coffee was delicious. The instructor was extremely kind and funny and helpful. The gift at the end was also very nice. Very worth it for the price.

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

Es hat wirklich viel Spaß gemacht! Allerdings war die Zeit etwas knapp, was man im Voraus bedenken sollte. Unsere Lampen wurden leider nur kurz getrocknet und direkt eingepackt, wodurch sich einige Perlen leicht verschoben haben. Insgesamt war es jedoch eine großartige Erfahrung, die ich absolut jedem weiterempfehlen kann!

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

C’était génial! Ma fille de 5 ans et moi avons adoré ! Les organisateurs étaient très sympas, patient, et ils sont là pour vous aider si vous avez du mal. C’est un atelier création donc aucune connaissance à avoir, un peu d’imagination et de la créativité et votre lampe sera forcément magnifique ! On a pu repartir avec les lampes que nous avions créées, c’est TOP et c’est compris dans le prix. Merci encore !

Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

An amazing experience, our host Mustafa had great energy and was very accommodating to our journey and pick up point on our way to the workshop. The ambiance at the workshop was great, small cosy closed off space where we learnt the history of Turkish coffee and eventually fortune telling. Mustafa was engaging with the group and it felt like catching up with an old friend. Brilliant experience and highly recommend. The workshop is located on the Asia side (which the guide will escort a pick up if required) great location and a change of pace from the central

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

The workshop was great fun and is really good value for money. Before creating our own lamp designs we were introduced to a brief history of the lamps and the making process. Our workshop guide was very friendly but we had a bit of trouble understanding her at times. Then we got crafty. We were free to choose any design we like and while working we were given snacks and beverages. Highly recommend and would do it again.
