Türk Mozaik Lamba Atölyesi Değerlendirmeleri

Mille mercis à Bunyamin pour sa sympathie et la qualité de l'atelier !! C'était très amusant, dans une super ambiance et nous avons maintenant deux superbes lampes pour décorer notre appartement !

Great workshop. No point in buying Turkish lamps - go to this workshop instead! You'll get to design your own lamps - and unleash your creativity. Plus you'll remember this experience for as long as you have the lamp- likely lifelong. Would definitely recommend.

Great fun. Highly recommend!

I booked this experience as a surprise treat for my partner, and man, were we both surprised by how fun lamp making is! Bunyamin started with a bit of history about turkish lamps, provided the material for the activity and let us go crazy with our creativity. He was extremely friendly and hospitable. The coffee and snacks were great. Bunyamin himself was a great companion for the event. We also got lucky with our workshop-mates who were super fun! I amcurrently recommending this to all my friends in town.My only feedback is about the quality of the upgraded hanging lamp-stand which does not hold the weight of the lamp. Considering that we paid 10USD extra for it, I wish it had more stability.Overall, adipoli aayirunnu! Kore chirichu, kore kaapi adichu, kore adichu polichu.

Це був чудовий досвід! Я в Стамбулі не перший раз, проте поки що цей майстер-клас був найкращим з усіх активностей, в яких я приймала участь)Дякую і дуже рекомендую відвідати!☺️

I had a wonderful time making my mosaic lamp today! I will start by saying the Bunyamin is a perfect gentleman. He offered to carry my bag for me but I felt bad and declined bc it was heavy from my travels/souvenirs from other AirBnB experiences earlier in the day 😅. I am a solo-traveler in Istanbul and he was so kind to meet at our exact meeting place on time and with a huge smile on his face. I felt at ease as soon and he called my name at the corner. We had a short walk to the train station and boarded with two other Americans who were taking the class as well. Bunyamin’s conversation was very easy and engaging as we walked to his shop. The location is in a quiet, residential part of the Asian side of the city and the coffee shop is easily seen off the Main Street. The atmosphere inside was warm and inviting. Fatih, his partner, greeted us at the door with a smile and showed us to our seats at the crafts table. Bunyamin immediately offered us water or Turkish coffee and tea as we waited for 2 more guests to join us. When they arrived, we viewed a short (4min) informational PowerPoint and were presented with a myriad of colors of glass tile and beads to decorate our lamps. It took about two hours for us all to complete our projects, some artists knew exactly what they wanted & were quick to finish, so they helped & encouraged others at the table. The other half of us didn’t really know what we wanted to portray and took a little longer to finish, Bunyamin was patient & helpful through it all! It was fun and relaxing, we built a little community at the table. The Turkish tea & cookie service was a nice touch and great way to pick us up midway through our designs if we started to feel stressed. The cute and lazy cafe kitten, Crepe, was also there to make us ooh and awe as she encouraged our artistry with her cuteness. After we let our lamps dry, Bunyamin was so kind to walk us back to the train so but then offered us the option to take the ferry back to the European side instead! It was a great idea and one last added touch to complete the experience. Overall, this is definitely an Airbnb experience I would recommend!!! I find it way better to make your own mosaic lamp and to meet new friends while doing it, than to spend tons more money by buying one that isn’t at all personal to you. My lamp now has a story to tell and I’m glad I chose to visit Bunyamin’s cozy shop to write it in!

I would recommend this experience to anyone, even if you don’t think you have a creative side…. Also a great team building experience. Bunyamin was an amazing host and I hope to see him again on a future stay in Istanbul. wishing you best with your Airbnb experience!

My friend and I had an absolute blast making our lamps! Bunyamin was super helpful and kind, he even offered to join his family for dinner as they were breaking their fast when the class was ending. Book with Bunyamin, he’s the best!

I had an amazing time at the Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop during my vacation with three of my friends. Our host was exceptional and made the experience truly enjoyable. His cat, Creppe, was an added bonus and kept us entertained throughout the workshop.The workshop itself was informative and well-organized. We learned how to make beautiful mosaic lamps and were able to take home our creations as souvenirs. The host was patient and encouraging, which made the experience even better.I highly recommend this workshop to anyone visiting Turkey. It's a unique and fun way to immerse yourself in the local culture and create a lasting memory. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

We thoroughly enjoyed the activity. It is a beautiful souvenir and a great activity to do. The hosts were great, the work shop is easy to find and very cozy. The lamp making was three hours overall and I think that is a good time to think about the design and execute it. Only negative (not really) - you should also sell those complimentary biscuits. They were delicious :DI am surely recommended this to my friends. Keep the same energy and the same price and you will do great business throughout the year.

What an amazing experience-loved every minute !

I am so glad I booked this experience! 5 stars all around. The workshop is conveniently located near both a ferry stop and a metro stop, making it quite easy to get to regardless of where you’re staying. The hosts and cafe staff were all very kind and welcoming. I loved chatting with Bunyamin throughout the afternoon. He was a very kind and patient guide and made the whole experience seamless and fun. The cookies were delicious, the playlist was excellent, and the Turkish coffee was the best I’ve had! I love my lamp and will always cherish the memory of making it in Istanbul! A highlight of my trip to be sure. Don’t miss it!

Highly recommend this mosaic lamp workshop if you visit Istanbul! Bunyamin is very friendly and amazing in teaching us how to make a mosaic lamp. He is very patient as well! I also enjoyed wonderful time with friends and the Turkish tea and handmade cookies by Bunyamin! Also, the little cat in the cafe is very cute 🤣🤣🥹🥹.

The host was friendly and the pick up was relatively easy from the European side. The experience however was not as good as I had anticipated. We were the only ones in a group of 3 which I thought would be great but I felt that we were being rushed. The whole experience was just over an hour. There were no freshly made cookies or any trivia interactions. We were shown a short PowerPoint presentation and basically left to get on with it while the host spoke to his friend. Such a shame as I was really looking forward to it. Maybe there would have been more interaction if it was a mixed group but I felt a bit deflated unfortunately. Is it worth the money? Yes but only if everything in the description was offered.

This was a fun activity! Enjoyed meeting the other guests. Was expecting to learn a bit more about Turkish culture but thoroughly enjoyed making the lamp. Pickup was easy and thoughtful

This was an excellent and relaxing workshop. It was a lovely break from visiting the sites. Bunyamin was informative, helpful and patient.He kindly met us near our hotel to take us to the workshop. Highly recommend.

This is the best experience you'll have in Istanbul. Of course visiting historic places is great (I'm a tour guide myself and love history). But there's nothing like bringing a piece of the city home with you, especially when it's sustainable, you made it, and you connected with locals.The host is thoughtful, polite, very nice to have a chat with, and very patient. It's different from everything you'll experience In Istanbul. No rush, no pressure, no upselling, no pushing, no scam, no bargaining, no... Just positive vibes, a relaxed atmosphere and you end up feeling like you were visiting a friend and understanding more about the local culture.Do it do it do it!

A fun experience, got to make and keep our own Turkish mosaic lamp. Bunyamin was very friendly and his cat adorable.

Una bellissima esperienza! La mia lampada sta benissimo nel mio salotto:) nessuno riesce a credere che l' ho fatta io!

Sehr Toller Workshop. Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Bünyamin war sehr geduldig. Außerdem habe ich tolle Leute kennengelernt und spannende Geschichten gehört.

A must do if you are in Istanbul. You learn how to make a mosaic lamp pattern and you get to do it yourself. I consider myself to have no artistic abilities but Bunyamin made it very easy and I had fun, as well as my family and kids.

My parents and I had a great time with Bünyamin at his cafe. Making our own lamps was one of the highlights of our Turkey trip. He was extremely personable and gave us some good recs for the Asian side of Istanbul (underrated, don’t miss it). Overall an awesome experience with a lifelong memory to show for it!

Such a cool experience in such a cool place! And a great souvenir to take home. Thank you, Benjamin and crepe! :)

Very good activity. I loved the place, we have a lot of differents colors to personalize our lamps and the host is really helpful. The music is also good!
