    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    A wonderful, enchanting time with the family here. Don't know why it took me so long to book! Of course, there are plenty options for coffee-making and fortune-telling in Istanbul— but none with the same authenticity and thoughtfulness displayed here. The free cezve gifts, guides and pamphlets, the slideshow, the set-up and lovely venue? Can't get this anywhere else. Was magical, was hilarious, was seriously educational: all in one. Thanks for making our trip, Bunyamin!

    Benjamin offered to meet up and guide me to his workshop which was so helpful. The space was cozy and his presentation was very informative. He was personable and we actually shared a wonderful lunch afterwards. Grateful for the new friendship and can’t wait to read my friends fortunes with my new Turkish coffee making set!

    I did this experience with my girlfriend and we both really enjoyed our time with Bunyamin and the other guests on the experience. Personally, I am not a huge coffee drinker but thoroughly enjoyed learning about Turkish coffee and its origins! We both enjoyed the atmosphere of the class which was held in an actual cafe, we don't remember her name, but she was a great assistant as it was her first time doing the coffee presentation. Both her and Bunyamin were very insightful, as well as helpful. We were treated to tea after and got to meet the cafe owner. We recommend this unique experience to anyone in Istanbul!

    Very uniquely experience on the Anatolian side of Istanbul. We met at a nice little cafe and went through a detailed history lesson about Turkish coffee, its origins and the cultural significance etc. I got to make my own Turkish Coffee and read patterns of the grounds as locals would do. Benyamin was very friendly and professional throughout. I would highly recommend it to those who are interested in learning more about Turkish coffee.

    This is a great experience for anyone to who wants to learn the authentic way of brewing Turkish coffee along with learning a bit about the history/culture. The host was very attentive and he made the entire experience even better by sharing some of his own grand mother's trick on brewing as well.

    Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

    We attended this workshop with my mother and were extremely pleased. Firstly, a very good organization, taking into account which side of Istanbul tourists have accommodation on. Secondly, an incredible location where a workshop was held with an amazing atmosphere that allows you to feel and enjoy what is happening. Well, the most important thing is the narration and the conduct of the workshop. The team tells very interesting things about Turkish coffee, history and divination. The atmosphere is so friendly that during the process all the present participants become something more than just strangers gathered for a workshop. We definitely recommend this experience for everybody who wants to get acquainted with the Turkish culture a bit more

    Beside learning a new skill, the whole experience was just authentic and real. It also enlightened us on the history of Turkish coffee making. The coffee shop and it’s location on the Asian side of Istanbul was quite special. Bunyamin was kind and intuitive and just a very dear person. I highly recommend this experience.

    Absolutely amazing experience! Our host Fatih was really thoughtful and accommodating, the storytelling was great, the gift in the end of the coffee making is a nice touch, and he helped us a lot with few touristy questions and we are more than grateful he went beyond his way to help us to get back, explaining how to use public transport. 10/10 hospitality!

    I definitely recommend this experience if you are in Istanbul!!! From the beginning Bunyamin was extremely helpful, his storytelling of the history of Turkish coffee culture and history. He will teach you how to make your own traditional Turkish coffee followed by tasting and a little fortune telling for fun. The gift at the end of the experience was a nice surprise! 100% recommend
