Misafir Defteri

Great time in an adorable cafe. Best Turkish delight I had on the whole trip! Friendly, welcoming host worked hard to make sure everyone had an experience they would enjoy.

이스탄불에 짧은 시간 머물게 되어서 무엇을 할까 고민 중에, 생각지도 못한 너무나 재미있는 커피 수업을 발견했어요! 다른 친구들은 가는 길이 멀다며 불평했지만, 저는 덕분에 아시아 사이드도 구경하고, 또 이스탄불 지하철 이용하는 법도 겸사겸사 같이 배울 수 있어서 더 좋았던 것 같아요. 알고보니 커피 맛집! 같이 튀르키쉬 카흐베도 만들어보면서 관련된 문화나 역사도 같이 배울 수 있어서 더욱 재미있었던 것 같아요. 수업이 끝나고는 카흐베 세트도 선물로 주셨는데, 집에 가서 엄마랑 커피 만들어 먹으려구요ㅎ.ㅎ 이스탄불에 놀러오는 여행객들에게 이 커피 수업을 추천합니다 😄😄😄

Bünyamin is a very kind and open person! It was not just about the process of making and preparing Turkish Coffee, he also prepared a presentation and a bit of history about Turkish coffee culture. After the workshop he recommended some places to go if I wanna buy more accessories to make coffee like a traditional grinder. I really can't complain, it was totally worth it!

It is great experience! Bunyamin is very thoughtful and easy to talk with. Very frdly! Also the cafe place is cool and a good chance to explore the asian side of Istanbul. Plus! Coffee reading is a fun process! Definitely recommend to do this in the trip~~

If you want to learn how to make basic Turkish coffee and a short history of it then this experience is for you. They seem to be very knowledgeable about their coffee. Plus you get a certificate and a Turkish coffee-making set.

The coffee experience exceeded our expectations. We did not only learn a lot about the Turkish coffee history, but we even got a coffee certificate and our own coffee set. Bunyamin, the host, was amazing. He gave us also a lot of tips for our stay in Istanbul

Amazing activity to learn about the history, culture and beauty of Turkish Coffee. Bunyamin was a pleasure to meet and was a gracious host - a must do if you’re in Istanbul!

the experience was top-notch! Bunyamin is one awesome human 🦸‍♀️The structure of the workshop is pretty straight-forward, you learn about the history+ a few fun facts about the coffee culture in Turkey, make coffee, drink coffee, fortune-tell. We overstayed our welcome a bit, Bunyamin had absolutely zero issues with that 😎

Great way to quickly catch up to Turkish coffee culture

Fun experience to learn more about Turkish coffee theoretically and practically. The host was great and made us all feel comfortable and everyone was able to participate 👍🏼

A great experience to learn all about Turkish coffee with a kind and friendly host!

Bunyamin is a wonderful host and very knowledgeable about Turkish coffee and Istanbul. We had a great time, the workshop was informative and very relaxed at the same time. Definitely a recommendation for coffee lovers!

I rated it a 4 star only because I already knew most of the turkish coffee culture :) The host is a great guy, always ready to help and doesn't forget about you if you're the calmest (even if you're in a big group). I would recommend it if you're in for a lil' welcoming activity in Turkey and not that of an expert of coffee (like me 😉).

Es una buena actividad para hacer en tu viaje a Estambul, y así descubrir tradiciones locales.

Fantastic experience! We had so much fun learning about the coffee culture and how to make coffee. The experience was very well thought out and we had an amazing time. We were staying at the European side, and Bunyamin picked us up and it took only 10-15 minutes to get to the coffee shop location (we went via metro and it was very easy!). If you are staying in the Asian side, I believe you could be picked up very close by to the experience location. The team is great at communicating logistics and answering any questions. We loved our coffee kits and are so excited to make Turkish coffee at home! Highly recommend!

This was the perfect rainy day activity! Hosts were great and super welcoming— fun to learn about coffee culture and history in a modern space and get to make our own! Reading the grounds together was a highlight. Recommend!

This is a great experience that I would recommend if you're looking for an activity for a few hours in Istanbul and especially if you're interested in coffee.Already on our way to the coffee house, we discussed some cultural moments about Istanbul and its districts, which found their reflection during the experience itself.More than making coffee, we also talked about its history and its place in contemporary culture.The hosts make you feel welcome and give you all their attention, and the gift at the end is very practical!

Great host and fun experience! Our host did a great job explaining the cultural origins of Turkish coffee and even provided us a gift set to take home with us!

This was such a great experience. It was well thought out and the coffee was delicious. Would definitely recommend to everyone visiting Istanbul. Bunyamin also has great suggestions of where to go for authentic food!

Turquía tiene mucho que ofrecer y sin duda esta experiencia la súper recomiendo para aprender sobre la cultura turca al tomar café y como se prepara un café turco. El servicio de los chicos es estupendo, muy atentos y amables en todo momento. Más que una experiencia, me quedo con un nuevo amigo como Benjamin.Excellent way to get to know the Turkish coffee culture! Benjamin is a great host and very professional. I totally recommend doing this activity because of the experience of learning something new and because of Benjamin and his partner! Both of them were amazing and very kind with us!

A+ experience. I had Ali Furkhan leading the class. He promptly picked us up at the location and provided a mini tour on the way to the coffee class. The actual class was a great introduction to coffee culture and the societal significance of coffee. Overall was a great way to spend a couple of hours in Istanbul. Good conversation and coffee what’s not to love!

This experience is the perfect combination of history, information and action. We were made to feel so welcome by everyone and had such a great time learning about Turkish history and culture over a delicious Turkish coffee. I would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Istanbul. It was a great way to start our time here.

Bunyamin and his team are thoughtful and made the experience interactive and fun! We got to learn not just how to make the coffee, but also the historical, cultural and social significance of coffee in Turkish culture. Would really recommend!

10/10 would recommend. The history lesson, the actual making of the coffee and the goodie bag at the end, everything was amazing!!!!
