Still having second thoughts? Don't just book, this is highly recommended! - Together with my daughter we painted a tile in Amsterdam in May '24 (beautiful location, the Mint) and since we liked this so much, we immediately booked the masterclass in Delft. Last weekend we painted a vase and what fun this was again! Karin gave good explanations, everything was possible, she thought along and helped where necessary. We had a great day, with a delicious lunch. Of course curious about the result! Highly recommended to do this!

This is a real must-do during your visit to Delft - What fun this was! Harder than I thought but with Pascal’s thorough and patient tips & tricks, 4 very beautiful Delft tiles came on the scene. Upon entering we were offered a delicious drink and then got to work, not in a hurry but just very relaxed. Now we have to wait 3 weeks until our tiles are baked and shipped (yes people, they even ship to Australia); sooooo curious about the result.

Delicious workshop - What a beautiful location in Amsterdam. An enthusiastic and very friendly instructor who guided us very well. Thanks to the explanation and help everyone has made a very nice tile. Now wait in suspense until it is baked.

Great for pros and beginners! - Painting the tiles in Delft style was an amazing experience! The coach was calm, helpful and patient. He did not rush things and helped the group achieve great results. There were skilled painters as well as complete beginners and everyone had fun. Definitely worth it!

Super fun workshop & highly recommended! - I gave this workshop as a gift to my best friend and it was super fun! An incredibly nice man who could explain and tell well led the workshop and it gave us a nice insight into the world of Delft Blue. Although it seems very difficult, especially in the beginning, we both made a super nice tile! This definitely tasted like more, so hopefully we'll be back soon (luckily we live in Amsterdam;)) And oh yeah, don't make any big plans right after the end of the workshop (so we would have done..), because if you're not done yet you can just keep going!

Would recommend - Had a great time painting my own tile! Our instructor spoke English and Spanish, which was great for our party. Value is also great, a single tile can cost about the same as this activity

Really recommended to do once... - Had a great afternoon. Our host explained everything well and took plenty of time for you to help you with tips and points of interest. I painted a tile and came up with a pattern myself. But you can also choose the more classic Delft blue tile patterns from countless examples. Coffee/tea was served, the atmosphere was very cozy and relaxed. I want to book again soon with a bunch of friends.

Fun for Locals and Visitors Alike! - This was such a fun and memorable experience for locals and visitors alike! The instructor was very thorough and helped our group (which consisted of all painting skill levels) learn the technique and create pieces we were proud of. Shipping back to the United States was affordable (at least compared to U.S. shipping fees), so don't let that stop you from this unique experience. The class also takes place in one of the oldest buildings in Amsterdam, which was a nice addition.
