Misafir Defteri

Je recommande à 100% pour un souvenir orignal ; l'endroit est vraiment sympa ! Nous avons pu faire nos lampes grâce au conseils et explications de Bunyamin qui a été très ouvert et sympathique. Nous avons aussi pu profiter de café et thé Turc ainsi que de biscuits et de caliner les chats :)

Amazing experience! So worth it! Bunyamin is an amazing host. He met us on the European side and took us to his workshop. He was so helpful and personable. Free tea and coffee during the entire experience and bunyamin never let your cup be empty. He also wrapped up the lamps perfectly for travel. Would recommend and can’t wait to do it again when I’m back in Istanbul.

I was quite pleased with the experience. The history and cultural presentation at the beginning was really insightful. It gave me a new perspective on how significant coffee is in the fabric of Turkish society, and the presenter was knowledgeable, making the information easy to understand.The hands-on brewing process was enjoyable and unique. While grinding the beans and using the traditional cezve, I felt a deeper connection to the Turkish coffee-making tradition. Although I would have loved to learn more about the intricate techniques involved, it was still a great experience for a beginner.The coffee conversation and fortune-telling segment added a touch of fun to the session. While the fortune-telling part might not resonate with everyone, I found it interesting and quirky, adding to the authentic feel of the workshop.The Turkish Coffee Making Set we received as a keepsake was beautifully crafted and will surely be a great reminder of this cultural journey.

It’s worth every single penny! i totally recommend it. Bünyamin was such a calm and friendly host. It was a very pleasant atmosphere. We really enjoyed making the lamp. So far the best experience i’ve ever had. :) You should experience something special to ^^

This experience was so much fun, I ended up making 2 lamps and could have spent the whole day there. It feels like I've got something special to take home with me. The whole experience was well organised, fun and relaxing.

Very recommended, especially for the crafty souls! A cool space to explore with such a traditional item, variety of colours and definitely no pressure to make it perfect but to learn and have a nice time.

This experience was definitely worth it. The host was very personable and the environment was charming and relaxing. Host tried his best to accommodate us and overall made the experience great. We walked away with a lamp that was personal and easy to make with the guidance provided !

Great experience to learn all related to Turkish coffee from a profesional and passionate of his roots such as Bunyamin it is. It was great to learn how to prepare and probably I’ll never forget the lesson. Worth it at all!

Fantastic experience for coffee lovers, Benjamin was a great host

Very cool experience. Bunyamin gave us great insights into Turkish coffee culture. Definitely recommend

I absolutely loved the experience. Bunyamin is very nice and always there to help us or give us some advice if we ask for it. And the lamp is really pretty and of good quality!! I would go back to make another one anytime if I had more time left in Turkey. I recommend 100%

انه أجمل عمل يمكن أن تقوم به في اسطنبول ممتع للغاية ، عند زيارتك لاسطنبول يجب تجربته والاستمتاع بأجواء الموسيقى مع ممارسة الفن والألوان 👍 @istanbulworkshopsأضف الحساب واستمتعIt is the best experience you can have in Istanbul, Just Try

I went with my sister and we had a really lovely time. Bunyamin was very knowledgable and interesting. It was really good fun to actually make our own coffee.

Fun, informative and tasty. Well organised, great communication about getting there and a lovely gift at the end.Thank you Bunyamin

Great eperience with nice personal touch! Bunyamin is an amazing story teller and inspires his guests to learn about coffee sharing what he knows - and he knows a lot! Very remote and comfortable place in very beautiful neighborhood on the Asian side of Istanbul. Definitely would go again, and would recommend to anyone in Istanbul even if just for a few days!

It was a great workshop, which allowed me to express my creative side and create a very unique gift for a loved one.

Bunyamin and Fatih are awesome hosts. Fatih picked us up from the European side and took us over to the workshop. He was super welcoming and really great to get to know. There we met Bunyamin, who was a really cool and patient dude. he took his time with us, helping us come up with ideas and decorating the lamps. he also wanted to get to know us so it felt really personalized. I honestly can't reccomend the lantern making workshop enough! it was so much fun and such a nice relaxing way to spend some time in between site seeing. My dad and i both left with lamps we were really proud of. I can't recommend this experience enough!!

We had a good experience and the guide was friendly and explained everything very well! Coffee was great! Recommend this!

Eine schöne und interessante Erfahrung. Wir können den Kurs weiterempfehlen:)

I really had so much fun at this experience. It was a great opportunity to be artistic while also having meaningful conversations. I really love the vibe of the shop and the hosts were extremely welcoming and friendly. i learned so much about Turkish culture and customs on an individual level and it was really enlightening to hear. Highly recommend if you're looking for an activity and to connect with people 😊

It was great to have a time experiencing Turkish coffee. He was really kind and was a best storyteller

Standartların dışında farklı bir deneyim oldu bizim için. Bünyamin Bey'in anlatımı bilgili olduğunu belli ediyordu. Kız arkadaşımın doğum günü olduğunu önceden belirtmiştim ufak bir süpriz yapılması da ayrı hoşumuza gitti. Ayrıca da sıcak, tatlı bir ortamda aktiviteyi gerçekleştirmek de bizim için keyif vericiydi. Denemek isteyenler gönül rahatlığıyla gidebilirler bu etkinliğe.

Expérience magnifique 🌟 à faire absolument! Que ca soit entres ami(e)s, en couple ou même seul. Beaucoup plus sympa que d’acheter une lampe toute faite au Grand Bazar. Merci à Benyamin il a été top de A à Z.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A unique and memorable experience in Istanbul! My mom and I booked this experience because my mom LOVES Turkish mosaic lamps, and we thought it would be fun to make our own. Benjamin picked us up at the big Hafiz Mustafa in Sirkeci and took us over to the Asian side of Istanbul on the metro, and it was a short walk to the workshop from the train. The class began with a brief informative presentation on the history of glass mosaic lamps and some basic instructions. Each place setting was equipped with the necessary supplies, as well as a selection of cookies and Turkish tea. With ambient music (and a great playlist!), we had about an hour to design our own lamps. Then, we glued the designs onto the lamp. I was a little unsure about my fine motor skills, but everything turned out great! 😃 Before we left, Benjamin packed up the lamp globes in bubble wrap and gave each of us a certificate of appreciation. My mom and I were looking for a place to grab dinner after, and Benjamin gave us a great recommendation! DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND SIGN UP FOR THIS AMAZING EXPERIENCE!
