    I thoroughly enjoyed the Turkish coffee class with Ben, which offered a fascinating insight into the history and cultural significance of Turkish coffee. Ben and his sister were excellent instructors, providing detailed explanations of the coffee’s traditions and customs. They were attentive and engaging throughout the session, making it a must-try experience for anyone curious about coffee culture. Plus, the souvenirs received—a beautiful Turkish coffee cup and a fortune-telling guide—were a delightful bonus. Thank you for an unforgettable time!

    The coffee-workshop was one of our favorite experiences in istanbul. Bunyamin and Aleyna were lovely hosts and shared lots of knowledge in good english. Would definitely recommend! A very fair price as you also get gifts! It‘s a little tricky to find the location, but the locals are super helpful and the location makes it a very authentic experience.

    This was a great highlight of our trip! We learned about the history of turkish coffee, learned how to make it, drank coffee and also learned about fortune telling. It would be great if Bunyamin could collaborate with a fortune teller, I'm sure that would attract people even more! He was a great host and gifted us some very thoughtful presents. The workshop is a hidden gem and the location is definitely a highlight of this experience.
