Misafir Defteri

It was a very awesome and creative experience! Would definitely recommend it! :D

I recommend this activity for all who enjoy the arts and want to make their own lamp. After all the history and market centered activities that Istanbul has to offer, this was refreshing and very enjoyable. Our group was a mix of a young girl, a teenager, three women and a brave guy whom had as much fun as everyone else, if not more. We loved it and will return next time we are in the area.

It was a great experience. Thank you, Bunyamin!

Everything was very thoughtfully curated, going beyond what I expected. Yes, we did get to learn about the history of Turkish coffee, learn how to make Turkish coffee, and how to do fortune telling over the coffee remains as expected. But I was very impressed with how it was conducted. Bunyamin was ready to tell us the history of coffee with good paintings / photographs, he had all the tools carefully setup, gifted us something that will help us remember how to make Turkish coffee later, and gave us great coaching on how to do fortune telling ourselves. Here is someone who really cares about the experience of the workshop participant, has prepared very well to make it good, then executes it very well! I enjoyed the way he conducted the workshop that I was ready to sign up for more workshops he was offering, because I developed trust that he knows how to put up a good workshop!

It's an experience that's worth your money. I would recommend this to coffee lovers or someone who wants to immerse themselves even more in Turkish culture. I learned a lot from Bunyamin’s presentation and fortune reading too.

Very good. Workshop Instructor very nice guy

excellente activité (la meilleure que nous avons fait sur tous nos séjours) l'hôte est vraiment très sympathique, le café est vraiment pittoresque. nous recommandons complètement cette activité.

Bunyamin and Aliña were so helpful from beginning to end. Bunyamin met us at the pier to bring us to the Asian side where the shop was located. The neighborhood was a very nice place and the shop had a cute outdoor area for coffee and pastries. Alina helped us make the lamps. Something fun to do to beat the heat. The lamps are great quality and they even wrapped it in bubble wrap to bring home. I would definitely recommend this for adults and kids !!

I really liked it! The guide is also really nice

It was a really Nice Experience. Would definitively recommend it!

This is a unique experience. I really enjoyed having a few hours to relax and be creative. 100% recommended.

Would recommend. We got picked up halfway and caught a train together to the workshop. The class was well structured and very intimate (only 5 of us in total and our group was already 4). It would've been nice to hear a little about Turkey and its history and aircon!! It was so hot in there, we were all sweating. All in all, it was a fun activity and would recommend!

This was a fun activity - something different after exploring sights around the city. Aleyna met me and we took the underground to the Asian side. The workshop is a short walk. There were only two of us and I enjoyed chatting and drinking ice coffee while I made my lamp. I took the ferry back to the European side with my new creation.

La experiencia del workshop con Benjamin fue muy completa y estuvo lleno de sorpresas. Además su inglés es muy bueno y fácil de comprender incluso para latinos y nativos ingleses. Quedamos listas para preparar nuestro propio café turco en casa y leer la morra del café. Muchas gracias por esta perfecta experiencia <3

Attending the mosaic lamp workshop was a great experience. The instructor was nice and patient. I went with my cousins and there was 2 other guests there . We left with a beautiful mosaic lamp. Highly recommend.

I had a wonderful experience at this workshop! A unique experience definitely worth living in Istanbul!

Benjamin was so funny and we learned so much about the coffee as well as how to read the grounds. Very worthwhile experience and their coffee is so delicious! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Esperienza stupenda e personale gentilissimo. Consiglio per trascorrere qualche ora diversa ad Istanbul, immergendosi in usanze e tradizioni nuove. Grazie Aleyna e Benjamin per averci seguito durante questa esperienza. ❤️

Why buy a mosaic lamp when you can just make one to your liking? It was very fun and therapeutic. Our hosts were super friendly and kind! They kept refilling our teas and offered us Turkish coffee at the end. Highly recommend to do when in Istanbul!

Огромное спасибо) Очень понравилось) Мастер-класс проходит в стильном месте, нам рассказали об истории турецкого кофе. Затем показали 3 способа варить кофе в турке. Мы сами мололи кофе в кофемолке. Затем пробовали 2 других напитка кофе мененгич (из орехов) и кофе-дибек (молочный вкус с пряностями). Очень понравилось гадание на кофейной гуще)) Ведущий Бенжамин с юмором рассказал о технологии, затем мы гадали друг другу, а потом Бенжамин "погадал" каждому из нас) В конце нам подарили замечательные подарки, набор для кофе: маленькую турку, кофейную чашку с блюдцем и пакетик молотого кофе) Рекомендую!

I really enjoyed this workshop. The host was very friendly and introduced us to Turkish coffee making in a very enticing way.

Amazing experience! Very chill atmosphere. The workshop was well structured, with an educational part, a practice part and lots of fun all around :)

كانت تجربة جميلة جدا .. استمتعت بتنسيق الالوان و ترتيب قطع الزجاج على المصباح .. المضيف كان مرحباً جداً وروحه مرحه.. الفتاة التي اصطحبتنا من نقطة التجمع كانت لطيفة للغاية ومتفهمة و خدومة جداً..شكرا لحسن استضافتكم🤍

Awesome experience to get to make your own Turkish lamp with your unique style. The location and surrounding area are great to walk around afterwards as well.
