Misafir Defteri

This activity was one of the best things I’ve done during my travels. If you’re looking at booking it, just do it! Not only is this incredibly affordable for what you get (a beautiful lamp, guide through public transport if on European side, endless tea, coffee, water and biscuits), but the staff are amazing! So approachable, helpful, funny and entertaining. They create such a fun atmosphere and get everyone laughing and talking while creating their beautiful lamps!

Really enjoyed the whole experience. Everything was very well organised, including getting us from the meeting point to the workshop and getting us all set up. Great atmosphere while we were designing our patterns and gluing them on. Nice tea and coffee there too. Highly recommended!

My family has a great time making these lamps! Very relaxed and chill atmosphere

Fun activity with a wonderful guide, and a great price. The place itself is very artsy & they have a cute little cafe too :)

Love making and learning about smells … I made perfume for my mom it was epic … Tuna and Karem are just pure love 💚✨🌻

Learned the techniques of making a simple and strong coffee the original way and got amazing gifts… dived into history and it was amazing

Muy recomendado. Fui con toda mi familia y les encantó a todos. Es una experiencia distinta y muy entretenida!

Muy buena actividad para hacer algo distinto, descansar los pies y aprender de ka historia del café y de Turquia.

Une très bonne activité, un très bon service et un personnel plus qu’incroyable et à l’écoute. Je recommande fortement.

Wow! Everything was perfect! We learnt how to make the best Turkish Coffee and had a lot of fun talking to our host. It was an informative workshop with a really nice host. The gifts and the certificates given at the end melted our hearts and set a really good example of Turkish hospitality.

It was a very fun activity to do. The people are lovely and make you feel very welcome and comfortable. You get a bit of history before you start and learn the right techniques to make a beautiful art work. I recommend this to do this alone or with a small group of friends/family. Also the location is on the asian side of Istanbul and it is beautiful!

Superbe activité, j'ai toujours eu envie d'essayer de frabriquer un parfum moi même et c'est chose faite ! Super contact, bonnes explications et accompagnement au top dans la découverte du processus et des manipulations. On reste maitre de nos choix donc c'est vraiment notre parfum personnalisé unique au monde et on est aussi conseillé sur certains choix et étapes. À faire absolument dans sa vie !

it was good fun - professional but relaxed session and I now have my very own Turkish mosaic lamp to use!

Harika bir deneyim, bütün etkinliklerine katılmayı düşünüyorum

**A Unique and Creative Experience in Istanbul!** Our family recently participated in a Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop in Istanbul, and it was one of the highlights of our trip! The workshop allowed us to design and craft our own mosaic glass lamps, offering a hands-on way to connect with the local culture. The session was well organized, with a knowledgeable instructor guiding us through each step. He provided all the materials and helpful tips to make our designs stand out. The atmosphere was relaxed and inspiring, making the process enjoyable for everyone. The final product is a beautiful handcrafted lamp that we’ll cherish as a memento of our time in Istanbul. The instructor's passion for his craft was evident, and he even took great care in wrapping our lamps securely for easy transport home. This workshop is a must do for anyone looking to create a unique and lasting memory of their visit to Istanbul. It’s a perfect blend of creativity, culture, and fun!

I had a great time making the perfume. The process was enjoyable, and everything was explained to me clearly and thoroughly. I would definitely recommend this experience!

We would like to thank the workshop representatives , especially Mustafa, for a valuable experience of immersion into such unique technique. We were impressed about the hospitality and caring attention to each participant, as well as the process of decorating the lamp itself. Very nice place, wonderful people and hilarious kittens!

We 100% recommend this activity. Everybody involved was lovely and made us feel immediately comfortable. It is such a calming and fun few hours and feels so special taking home the lamps you create. They are also packaged up beautifully for safe travels.

the guide, mustafa, explained everything very well and the vibe was very cool with the ppl also paticipating the course. 10/10 would recommend!

It was a great afternoon. The instructor met us on the European side and took us through which was really helpfull. I had an 11 yr old and teenager with me and they both enjoyed the production process +++ we get to take a lamp home! It is also opportunity to explore a cute 'modern' neighbourhood.

Tutto fantastico, anche Mustafa è stato davvero carinissimo e molto preparato

Amazing and enjoyable. The team is amazing and the atmosphere is very nice. We had a very nice group with us so we enjoyed the company too.

professional, interesting workshop in lovely setting with hospitality. attention to small and big details.went with teenage son who also had fun and wasn't overwhelmed with mix of history, culture and making coffee.

Es war außergewöhnliches Erlebnis, ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen.
