    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    Probably the best activity I’ve done in Istanbul because the people that run the class are so passionate and friendly! Ali even came to meet me in person to make it easier to get to the workshop. The place itself is in a really cool cafe in the Asian side of Istanbul. Ali told us about the history of Turkish coffee, showed us how to make it, and even gave us a gift to take home. We then had a tea and a chat afterwards and he gave me recommendations in Istanbul. If you give someone good coffee, it creates a friendship that last for 40 years! This place is the best!

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    Ali was great, he did an overview about the tradition about the Turkish coffee , then we had lots of fun in making it and try to read our future. It was an unique opportunity to understand better the Turkish culture and to enjoy time together.

    Definitely a fun activity. Don’t worry if you’re not artistic, our guide Aleenah helped a lot and made it easy for us. She also came to fetch us, which was very convenient. Wish they had more classes.

    Es war sehr spannend und interessant die Lämpchen zu basteln. Was aber mir gefällt hat ist Kaffee/Tee, da unser Workshop um 9:00 startete. Ich hätte mir auch gewünscht paar Tips und Tricks oder mehr Hintergrund zur diesen Kunst.

    I really enjoyed this workshop. It was well structured and everything was provided. It's nice to take a souvenir back from Turkey that you've made yourself 🙂Communications with the host was excellent. He was very helpful and quick with his responses for any queries I had. I would definitely recommend doing this when in Istanbul.

    We went as a family of four and all of us enjoyed the experience. The host was caring and thoughtful. The workshop has a positive atmosphere and everyone who works there seemed nice and kind. We were surprised by how good our lamps turned out ! A day and souvenirs that we'll remember:) Thank you !

    Получились красивые светильники👍 Светильники забираете с собой. Отличная память о поездке или сувенир (особенно, если учесть, что он сделан собственными руками)).

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    I think it was a great idea of spending creatively time in Istanbul doing something different than most of the tourists. I enjoyed it a lot, also the communication was very good (3 people contacted me making sure I know how to get there), and I made a really nice lamp by myself, I decorated it, got biscuits and tea. It was worth it.

    I loved it and I will definitely come back again the next time I travel to Istanbul! Thank you Aleyna for picking me up and bringing me to the workshop, for your guidance, for helping me find the pieces for my lamp and for your tips to check out places in the Asian side of Istanbul.

    A fun little way to spend a few hours, everything is provided and they come and get you from the side of the river you’re staying on (very helpful if you haven’t got your bearings yet). Leaves you with a keepsake from your travels.

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Es hat Spaß gemacht am Workshop teilzunehmen. So eine kleine Mosaik-Lampe ist schon etw. besonderes und wird uns stets an die tolle Zeit erinnern, die wir in Istanbul hatten. Die Kursleiterin hat uns anfangs den Ablauf genaustens erklärt und war für Nachfragen stets anwesend. Uns wurde auch Kaffee und Tee angeboten. Dieser Workshop ist eine tolle und einzigartige Aktivität, zu der ich jedem nur raten kann.

    Nice experience in pleasant surroundings providing value for money. Our only reservation was the location, we believed we were booking something on the European side but this was a pick up point so there was a longer journey that envisaged.

    Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

    Aleyna was such a compassionate instructor. She helped us through and explained everything thoroughly. She also picked us up from our meeting point to the location which I appreciated. She helped me on which mosque to pray to. Not just that, she kindly helped and taught me how to use the marmaray train and made sure I made home safely. Thank you so much Aleyna! I loved the workshop! If you’re planning to participate in the workshop, please do so!!!!

    It has been a very interesting experience. I truly enjoyed this workshop. Our trainer, Aleyna patiently guided us through the process. It was very light and easy and we were given the freedom to experiment with our creativity. It is so exciting and fulfilling to see how the lamp decoration turn out after switching the light on. Definitely not forgetting the hospitality and cay and coffee serving a few times while we were working on our lamps. Really appreciate it.
