Description

Step into the heart of Istanbul and immerse yourself in Turkish culture with a hands-on cooking class in a welcoming local home. This experience invites you to prepare and enjoy traditional Turkish dishes, learning authentic techniques and stories behind each recipe from a passionate local host.

Whether you join for lunch or dinner, you'll savor your creations in a cozy setting, sharing meaningful moments and conversation. The experience is designed for small groups, ensuring personal attention and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Dietary preferences, including vegan options, can be accommodated with advance notice.

The class lasts about three hours and is conducted in English, making it accessible for travelers from around the world. You'll enjoy complimentary coffee or tea as you cook, and you'll also get a glimpse of daily life in Istanbul, complete with the company of a friendly cat and dog.

Reaching the home is easy via public transportation from Istanbul's historic old town. After a scenic tram ride to Kabataş, you can walk, take a taxi, or hop on a bus to the meeting point. Once you arrive, your host will greet you and welcome you inside for an unforgettable culinary adventure.

Spaces for this authentic Istanbul experience are limited, so secure your spot now to cook, connect, and create lasting memories in the heart of Turkey. Check availability and book your place today!
