Chaïma est vraiment une personne exceptionnelle ! Gentille, bienveillante, elle fait tout pour que l’on passe le meilleur moment possible. Elle nous donne des idées aussi pour notre dessin et peinture. Une expérience au top, un beau souvenir placé dans un cadre à la fin et bien emballé. Je recommande et reviendrai très certainement insh’Allah

FYI - after we booked this activity we were contacted via WhatsApp and informed the workshop and activity is actually located on the “Asian” side of Istanbul. We were given two options and the first allowed us to meet a guide who assisted us by taking us on the metro to the workshop. Unfortunately after the activity ended we had to pay for the transport home/figure out how to get back to the European side which was really inconvenient at 6pm (rush hour). Overall, we really enjoyed the activity. Our guide was super lovely and helpful. We had unlimited tea and water and heaps of guidance. The entire thing was packed up beautifully and we couldn’t be happier with our souvenirs. We would definitely book this again and even try the other activities like mosaic lantern / perfume workshop. Just be aware that this activity is on the Asian side of İstanbul, NOT the European side (as it is advertised). I hope the activity provider updates the description so that people are more prepared.
