This workshop was hands down the highlight of our trip to Istanbul! From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized. We received a detailed message with three meeting point options, and since our hotel was on the European side, we chose that one. Mustafa was punctual and led us seamlessly to the Asian side via metro, showing genuine interest in the group along the way. At the workshop, we met Eda, our fun and creative instructor. She started with a fascinating introduction to the history of stained glass before guiding us through creating our own pieces. Eda was incredibly patient and encouraged us to let our creativity shine. The artworks we created turned out beautifully and are fantastic souvenirs of our time in Istanbul. Throughout the session, we enjoyed unlimited tea, coffee, and delicious homemade cookies, which added to the cozy and welcoming atmosphere.

The stained glass painting workshop was an interesting and unique activity, but it didn’t quite meet all my expectations. While the setting in the café was nice and cozy, the overall organization felt a bit rushed. The instructor was kind and knowledgeable, but the explanations could have been more detailed for beginners. Additionally, there weren’t many opportunities to customize or create unique designs, as we were limited to pre-made templates. It’s still a pleasant experience if you’re looking for something relaxing and creative to do, but I feel it could have been better organized to make it more engaging. The end product was nice and well-packaged, so it’s a good souvenir to take home.
