Zehra was amazing! She taught me so much about Turkish coffee-making and culture. She also offers decaf coffee. I loved the treats and had so much fun listening to her fortune-telling. What an informative and engaging experience—I recommend to everyone!

I joined the turkish coffee experience with my partner today. The session is hosted by Zehra. She made the class interesting and interactive and show us clear instructions step by step.

      This was great for coffee lovers and non-coffee lovers! Ahmet was a great host who shared the interesting history of coffee and its importance in Turkish culture. The shop was beautiful and we had so much fun preparing coffee in the traditional way and the fortune telling was amazing! We did ATVs, balloons and sightseeing but this was our favorite activity in Cappadocia! Thank you Ahmet and family!

      Turkish Coffee with Yagmur

      Alyssa_R, Mar 2026
      Yagmur was so friendly! We had a great experience with her teaching us about Turkish coffee and reading our fortunes. Definitely recommend this activity. :)

      Good evening with coffee and Yagmur

      Anastasiia_G, Mar 2026
      I would like to thank our Turkish guide to the world of Turkish coffee, the girl with the wonderful name Yagmur (translated from Turkish as rain). She is Turkish by nationality and knows Turkish traditions very well. We brewed delicious coffee together and I learned how to cook and drink it properly. We were also given a gift- a Turk and a cup and saucer made of clay, as well as a guide to fortune-telling on coffee grounds, which was very nice and pleasant! The tour was conducted in English and Yagmur speaks it well, everything was clear and fascinating.

      Wonderful experience & learnt so much! Delicious Coffee!

      Yvonne_L, Oct 2025
      Ahmed was the best teacher who taught me so much about the traditional way of 'cooking' Turkish coffee, the local way of using it as unspoken hints, and reading my fortune based on my coffee cup. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend this. I even went back to buy the cup/saucer set because I couldn't find any similar ones in town.

      Enjoyable experience, great value!

      Arran_R, Oct 2025

      Akmet was an amazing guide on our coffee journey. We learned about the history of Turkish coffee, the cultural significance, the art of making it and reading fortunes. Such a great experience we can’t recommend it enough!

      A must for Coffee lovers

      Gabriel_T, Sep 2025
      This is a very relaxing hour and a half to learn about the art of Turkish Coffee. A must for all Coffee lovers traveling to Cappadocia. Ahmed was excellent and a great fortune teller :)

      A great experience!

      Lilian_Z, Jun 2025
      We loved the experience from beg to end. From understanding more about Turkish coffee, making the coffee, drinking it and then getting our fortune read, it was all so much fun! We highly recommend it!

      Different and interesting!

      Natalie_T, Jun 2025
      It was a very interesting and delightful experience! Zehra is kind and shared a lot on kahve but also turkish traditions! The fortune telling was such a special experience! Definitely recommend it!

      Thank you Deniz, a wonderful experience of Turkish coffee making!

      Abreha_K, Jun 2025

      greg_y, May 2025
      A surprisingly incredible, educational and fun experience with Denise. She not only took us through the the origins of coffee, but her story telling was otherworldly. It definitely exceeded our expectations and the fortune telling from the coffee grounds blew our minds!! Like, WOW!! What an exquisite and exotic experience for the price. Amazing.

      Ankit_B, Apr 2025
      It was a great experience of coffee making and fortune telling. We had limited time because we had a flight to catch but it was well accommodated and we still learned a lot in around an hour.

      Response from Host, Apr 2025

      Thank you so much for your wonderful reviews 🙏 We will continue to serve you by always maintaining and improving our service quality at the highest level 💫✨

      Unique, fun, don't think - just book this.

      Tyler_C, Mar 2025
      What a unique experience. The host Ahmet is such a kind man, patient with us and made learning how to make Turkish coffee so fun. Bonus points for his fortune telling interpretation of our coffee. I'll be making Turkish coffee at home in a few weeks using sand from Los Angeles!

      Coffe lovers!!

      Maria_R, Mar 2025
      If you are a coffee lover this is a great experience for you!! But the address is the Viator website is incorrect just used Google Maps "Highlights in Cappadocia Workshops" just like that.

      Amazing and Authentic Turkish Coffee Workshop

      AlanMichel_E, Mar 2025
      My partner and I attended this Turkish Coffee and Fortune Reading workshop, and it was a fantastic experience. Since we were the only two participants that day, the session felt very personalized. Our instructor, Zehra, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the class engaging and enjoyable. She walked us through the proper way to prepare Turkish coffee, highlighting common mistakes made in some markets. We learned how roasting times affect the flavor and even got to touch and smell different coffee beans before and after roasting. Whether you’re a coffee enthusiast like me or just looking for a fun activity to do as a couple, this workshop is a great choice. The two-hour duration was perfect—giving us time to learn, make the coffee, and enjoy it. Zehra also shared fascinating cultural insights about Turkish coffee traditions. She also inquired about our coffee-drinking habits back home, making the experience feel authentic and personal. The fortune reading at the end was a fun touch, making the whole experience even more memorable. I highly recommend this workshop!

      Great value, great time with Zehra!

      Eva_J, Dec 2024
      This was really fun! I'd highly recommend both for coffee lovers and for travellers just looking for a few hours of chill good time. You learn about the history of coffee, smell different varieties, learn the Turkish coffee making process, get your fortune told, and get a gift set to go. Pretty good value! Special shout out to Zehra for being a fun, engaging, and charming teacher.

      motjatji_s, Nov 2024
      This was a very nice experience. I had bought Turkish coffee on a previous trip and turns out I was making it wrong! Lol so grateful for the class. The fortune telling was also a nice experience and the gift set a very nice touch!

      Turkish Coffee & Sweets

      Bonnie_W, Nov 2024
      Esmir was a kind and gracious host. I enjoyed the day and the task of making Turkish coffee. It is at a leisurely pace, don’t book anything else within a 4 hour window so you can enjoy the time. The gift at the end is so nice! Thank you. Fortune telling was pretty accurate! (Edi) I think his name was, was gracious as well. Just know the workshop is in the building with a mosaic lamp making too. Thank you!

      Great way to just wind down

      Matt_C, Oct 2024
      Ege was a great person to do this with. It was just me so I liked having my own private experience! History AND coffee.

      Response from Host, Jan 2025

      Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! 😊 We’re thrilled to hear that Ege made your private experience so enjoyable and that you had the chance to dive into both the history and the art of Turkish coffee. ☕✨ We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for more unique and memorable experiences!

      Interesting Experience

      mayank_J, Sep 2024
      Had a great workshop with Erin. He knows a lot about coffee and its history. Not to forget, he is a fantastic Fortune Teller. Whatever he said resonated so much with me. Gave me very Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban vibes. Haha!

      Wonderful

      Chiara_G, Aug 2024
      The Turkish coffee experience wouldn't have been as good without Aysi! She was very professional and sooo funny!!! She gave a wonderful experience to the whole group! Recommended!!

      Love my Turkish Lantern

      Brenda_R, Jul 2024
      Ayse Sultan, the instructor, was one of the nicest people I have ever met. She was patient and kind, and I love how my lantern turned out. It’s beautiful! It will be my favorite souvenir from this trip! Suggestion: it would be nice to get a sturdy box to transport it home. This workshop was so much fun :)

      Highly recommended

      Davi_L, Jun 2024
      It was a really interesting experience! The guide, who was very kind and nice, gave a rich explanation of the history of coffee. Moreover, the experience of making coffee myself was very satisfying. Also I liked the gift!!

      Such an amazing experience :)

      JeongAh_L, Jun 2024
      Emir was a fantastic host and I and my husband enjoyed so much learning about the coffee history and making turkish coffee. I'd like to highly recommend this class to all my friends visiting Cappadocia.

      Good Pick.

      Elaine_L, Jun 2024
      The Turkish coffee workshop was a unique experience during my trip. It was fascinating to see how the coffee is made traditionally, and our guide was really knowledgeable. I appreciated the hands-on aspect where we got to grind the beans and brew our own coffee. The taste was different from what I’m used to but definitely worth trying. If you’re looking to do something a bit different and dive into local culture, this workshop is a good choice. One thing that could have been better is the communication with scheduling. Although the company was very responsive, we had to change our start time at the last minute.
