Perfect place! Wonderful view from the open terrace. Great teacher. All explanations were clear and understandable. Very person oriented class. Everyone has an attention of a master during the time. And the result is great as a memory and as a useful object! Recommend!Jimmy

We had a amazing time at the leatherworkshop and we had much fun to make our own leather-moneybag. We can highly recommend it especially because of the instructor! We had a great time with him and he made a very good job in looking after us so we didn't make any mistake. Keep in mind, the workshop is at the asian part of istanbul but you can meet at the european part and a guide will lead you to the workshop. Transportation was included. Would book again.Roos
I had an amazing experience at the leather crafting workshop! The instructor was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about his craft. He walked me through every step of the process, making it easy for beginners me to follow along and actually create something I’m really happy with and will use for a long long time hopefully! The premium quality materials used also made a big difference in the final product. His enthusiasm for leatherwork is contagious, and by the end of the session I felt genuinely inspired to explore this as a new hobby. You should also check out his leather accessories brand, Wabes, he creates stunning bags and accessories! Highly recommend this workshop for anyone interested in learning a new practical skill or just have a lovely creative afternoon.
