Super Fun!! - Such a GREAT experience. My teenagers had a great time. Not only did we learn how to cook some awesome tasting food but we got to compete for points and we each received certificates for what we each accelerated at. It was such a cool experience. We for sure would do it again if we ever got the chance. Thank you for making our short trip a special one!!

Istanbul cooking fun! - Excellent experience! This was a very fun, interactive and educational cooking experience. Chef Kaan is an amazing teacher explaining everything very well and making the whole experience fun and memorable. I would definitely recommend this to a traveler in Istanbul! It's great value for money.

Fun filled cooking experience with delicious dishes! - We would highly recommend this cooking class while staying in Istanbul! It was the right amount of cooking where we made some delicious and complex dishes while still having lots of fun and many funny surprises throughout the process. The class focuses on having fun while cooking Turkish/Ottoman dishes and does so well delivering that. Thanks for the fun experience and accommodating our need to change dates!

Horrible !! - To flee !!! We booked the cooking class 5 months ago for a birthday present during a stay in Istanbul! They canceled on us the evening before with an email saying that they had apparently moved to capados….apparently they had to move in the night for having warned us the day before for the next day!! The worst part is that they didn't forget to take the €100 from my account two days before!! Obviously no one responds to emails…..As a result we found ourselves in Istanbul with no activity for the next day because it was way too late to find anything!!! Not serious at all!

No longer operating. - This operator is no longer in business. I waiting at the meeting point and was a no show. I then contact Viator who got a hold of the operator who advised they are no longer doing the classes. Was given a full refund but I didn’t get to do what I had hoped to do. Disappointed

I can only speak to the things that happened. - The facilitator did not show up. They never sent a cancellation message at any time. I contacted the tour group and didn't receive a response. I question whether there is legitimacy to this tour or organization. I wouldn't recommend this group to anyone.

No longer in business - They are no longer in business. On the day of the class, I hadn’t heard from the operator regarding a meet up location so I reached to viator and they sent me the location of the class. After arriving with my family no one was there. I reached out to viator and they sent me the phone number of the tour operator who then informed me that they are no longer in Istanbul and viator is aware of this but has not stopped allowing bookings. Very disappointing, especially after dragging my entire family across town.
