Highlights
This is more than a tasting or standard cooking class. The experience takes place inside a real working Gulluoglu baklava shop and is rooted in a baklava tradition dating back to 1871. Guests meet experienced baklava masters, watch traditional preparation techniques, take part in selected stages of a real tray, and see how baklava is baked and finished with syrup. The 45-minute format is designed for travelers who want an authentic, hands-on introduction to Turkish culinary craftsmanship without spending several hours in a full cooking class.
Inclusions
What's included
- One piece of freshly prepared baklava, with a choice of pistachio or walnut.
- Traditional Turkish tea served with freshly prepared baklava at the end of the experience.
Cancellation
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the experience starts, for a full refund.

About Istanbul
Istanbul straddles Europe and Asia across the Bosphorus, with Byzantine and Ottoman monuments, busy bazaars and ferries crossing between continents.
The historic peninsula holds the greatest landmarks. Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Hippodrome face each other in Sultanahmet, the Basilica Cistern lies beneath the streets, and Topkapı Palace spreads across the hill above the Golden Horn. A short walk away, the Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar have traded for centuries, and Süleymaniye Mosque, built by the great Ottoman architect Sinan, crowns one of the city's seven hills.
Top-ranked sights in Istanbul: Dolmabahce Palace (Dolmabahce Sarayi), Bosphorus, Bosphorus Bridge (Bogazici Koprusu).
