Best thing to do in Istanbul - This was truly one of the best activities I’ve ever done. I got really lucky and was the only person in my session so it felt really personalized. I loved hearing about the history of coffee and the story behind how it was discovered. I also got great photos and videos to share plus a gift at the end. I would 100% recommend this to anyone!
