The best time in Istanbul - This was an amazing experience, a beyond welcoming environment. The coffee history lesson was so interesting and making our own coffee was so much fun. We were then taken through the traditional ways to drink the coffee, and even more exciting doing a reading afterward. What a fun activity, I recommend this to ANYONE who visits Istanbul.

Fantastic Workshop and Fortune Telling Experience - A superb workshop headed by Sadik who taught the class in a very interesting and informative way, making each of the attendees feel very comfortable learning how to make Turkish coffee. A wonderful experience that is well worth the time! And the fortune telling part of the workshop reading the coffee sediment was amazing.
