Loved this activity making the lamp. A perfect keepsake to bring home. The girls in the shop were lovely! The snacks weren’t much, so don’t plan on skipping any meals. But the tea and coffee was very good. The lamp is the important part, and absolutely wonderful!Kate
A beautiful day and a beautiful experience Oktay was the perfect guide for this amazing boat trip and extremely helpful particularly with sister who has mobility issues The islands and the islanders were amazing selling surprisingly good value souvenirs and food Would highly recommend this day trip and in fact would love to do it again! Also great value for moneyTeresea
We had a great time making our lamps and we had a keepsake from our experience. The teachers were great and gave guidance and instruction!!!Rebecca
Nihal and Selin were so fantastic they were friendly chatty and knowledgeable. We had a good laugh with them while we made the lamps and they helped us to realise our ideas we had seen online. We ended up free handing our designs thanks to their help This workshop was so fun to do but the ladies running it made it special You can upgrade your lamp to the hanging design for an extra fee which I chose to do but my partner kept hers as the standard one so we have a nice mixEmanuele
Absolutely amazing, I’d recommend doing this to anyone who’s visiting Istanbul, the activity was so enjoyable and the instructors were wonderful, it’s also a 7 minute walk from the grand bazaar so you can do both in one daySara
it was so worth the experience! the staff was super nice and fun and helpful! the fact that we can bring home traditional lamps made by us is so special!

The Turkish mosaic lamp workshop is priced per person. The current rate is on the booking page. The lamp body, glass beads, brass base, grout, and bulb are all in the kit. You take the finished lamp home.
The price covers a lamp body, the glass beads, the brass base, the soldering set, your guide, and the lit lamp you take home. Tools and materials are set up at your station. A short studio tour is part of the session.
