My children, aged 6 and 8, had a wonderful time. The atmosphere was calm and child-friendly. It was a bit unexpected that the workshop wasn’t near the meeting point.

The instructor gave us a thorough history of mosaics, and it was so much fun creating the lamps. The materials were high quality, and the people were super friendly. We waited 30 minutes for the glue to dry, so we used that time to have lunch at a local restaurant with very reasonable prices. If you can, I highly recommend this activity!

The location and the excellent preparation made this workshop truly enjoyable, and learning the skill itself was a fantastic experience. However, there’s room for improvement: the information shared felt a bit "rehearsed" at times, which took away from the authenticity.

Unfortunately, this workshop did not live up to my expectations. While the concept of making a mosaic lamp sounded wonderful, the execution left much to be desired. The guide seemed overwhelmed and was managing multiple groups at once, often disappearing and leaving us unsure of what to do next. The instructions felt rushed and impersonal, as if they were being recited from memory without much engagement. It was frustrating to have to seek help repeatedly, which disrupted the creative process. The snacks and drinks were a nice touch, but they couldn’t make up for the lack of proper guidance and attention. I wouldn’t recommend this workshop unless improvements are made to ensure a more organized and enjoyable experience.

A Must-Do Tour: Incredible Guides and Experience Our Mount Batur sunrise jeep tour was nothing short of magical, and we owe it all to our amazing guides and drivers, Masa and Darta. From start to finish, everything was seamless, exciting, and filled with unforgettable moments. The sunrise view was absolutely breathtaking, but the thrill of riding in the jeep truly made this experience stand out. Masa and Darta went above and beyond, even letting us stand at the back of the jeep for part of the journey, giving us a thrilling and unique perspective of the stunning volcanic landscapes. The visit to Black Rock, part of the active volcano, was another unforgettable highlight. The scenery was surreal—like stepping into another world. Our guides were incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories and insights that enriched the experience while ensuring we felt safe and cared for every step of the way. What truly touched us was how amazing Masa and Darta were with our kids. They were patient, fun, and made sure the little ones had just as much fun as we did. This tour was an incredible adventure that we’ll cherish forever. If you’re considering it, don’t hesitate—it’s a must-do and worth every moment!

This was a wonderful experience in Turkey! The workshop was so much fun, and creating my own mosaic lamp was a truly unique and memorable activity. The instructors were friendly, helpful, and made the process enjoyable from start to finish. However, I’d like to share a small warning—be careful when handling your lamp, especially with the top decoration. It’s spring-loaded, and trying to remove it can cause damage to the globe. Sadly, mine broke while packing it for travel, which was disappointing. That said, I still highly recommend this workshop to anyone visiting Istanbul. Just be mindful when handling and packing your lamp to keep it safe. It’s a fantastic activity and a beautiful way to take a piece of Turkish culture home with you!

The staff were incredibly friendly and kind, making the experience enjoyable from start to finish. The workshop starts with a brief history of mosaic art, which adds a nice cultural touch, and they provide everything you need to feel like a mosaic artist. The activity itself was fascinating and very creative, allowing you to design your own unique souvenir. It’s such a rewarding experience to take home something you’ve made yourself! The only downside was that the workspace felt a little cramped, so sitting at the edge of the table is more comfortable. Also, I’d recommend using the toilet beforehand as it can be tricky to leave once you’re settled at the table. Overall, it’s a highly interesting and creative experience that’s absolutely worth trying. A great way to create a personal and memorable keepsake from Istanbul!

The workshop was a really fun and creative experience! Designing your own lamp was such a unique activity, and it’s amazing to take home something you made yourself. That said, there are a couple of things to note. The workshop itself is in Üsküdar, not Fatih—Fatih is just the meeting point. It would be helpful if this was clearly mentioned in the description beforehand, as it requires extra time to get to and from Üsküdar, especially if you’re not staying nearby. Additionally, it would be great if there were more staff available to help during the wrapping-up process. We had to wait over 30 minutes for our lamps to be packed, which was a bit inconvenient after the workshop ended. Overall, it’s a great experience, but these small improvements could make it even better. I still highly recommend it if you’re visiting Istanbul and have some extra time!

The workshop was so much fun, and the staff were incredibly nice and supportive! I’m absolutely not talented artistically, but to my surprise, the lamp turned out very pretty. (Though I did have a little mental breakdown due to my lack of patience—something to keep in mind if you’re like me!) The only improvement I’d suggest is better access to the unlimited drinks. With so many participants, I only managed to have one tea and one coffee, but overall, I still think the experience is well worth the price. If you’re visiting Istanbul and want to try something creative and unique, this workshop is a great choice!

Everything was excellently organized. We had two options for arrival: either come to the location yourself if you're already in Uskudar, or meet up at Hafiz Mustafa Sirkeci where we were picked up and taken to the location together. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed and had a short wait, which was comfortably spent in their café. Once the workshop started, Mustafa explained everything in a clear, calm, and very friendly manner. He was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly open-hearted, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Even though we started as strangers, by the end of the workshop, we felt a connection with the others in the group. Help was readily available whenever needed, creating a supportive atmosphere. Sure, you could buy a mosaic lamp, but making it yourself adds so much more value and gives you a unique experience. Highly recommended! I will definitely return.

This experience was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Istanbul! The price is incredibly fair for everything you get. We met one of the owners who took us to the Asian side via subway (ticket included), and after a short 3-minute walk, we arrived at the location. Water, tea, and cookies were provided, and we sat down at a table with 7 people in total (our group of 4 plus others), which felt like the perfect size. The instructor gave us a fascinating introduction to the history of mosaics, and then it was super fun to create our own lamps. The lamps turned out absolutely beautiful! We received all the help and support we needed, and the materials were of high quality. The people there were incredibly kind. After we finished, we had to wait about 30 minutes for the glue to dry (so plan accordingly). We decided to grab lunch during that time, and they recommended a wonderful local restaurant with reasonable prices that was far from the tourist crowds. Highly recommend this experience!
