Fun activities in Istanbul - Ilker is one of the most helpful and nicest people in Istanbul. I would suggest taking carpet weaving and coffee making with him. He will help with history, background, myths and facts, even the travel and other activities. Please consider booking an activity with him for the best Istanbul experience.

Art, History, and Food All in One - This was one of my favorite experiences while in Turkey. My girlfriend is really into carpet weaving so she insisted we do this while in Istanbul. I'm normally not into that kind of thing but this exceeded my expectations. I learned a lot about Turkish culture and got to try some really good Turkish candy. Also the guys running the workshop were extremely friendly and patient. While weaving the carpet we also talked about a lot of "guy" stuff which provided a nice balance. I would highly recommend.

Great Educational Experience - I hadn't have any weaving experience before this and I was a little bit nervous because of that but i understood that all my concerns were in vain. Ilker, the owner, was very good at teaching end explaining the basics of the weaving, so i learned things quite easily and surpassed my expectations, it was also very nice to converse with Ilker during this great experience. If you want to come to Istanbul, it would be shame to miss this unique experience.
