Thanks so much for today’s class, I bought the session for my nieces as their birthday gift and we all had a really good experience. Came home with super impressive results and enjoyed the time in class too. Even when my younger one thought she has spoiled hers beyond fixing you made it work for us so thank you.
Thought it was a lot of fun- bit of confusion that I had only booked for one person as another client in the same class turned up late. Was amazed with variety of classes when I booked. It was a present voucher I used for my birthday! Great idea & the teacher was lovely!
This class is part of my 60th birthday gift from my daughter… I’ve always wanted to make silver jewellery, so i took this class …
It’s good value for money as I’m the only student….and I made a medieval styled ring which I designed at the end of my lesson …
Such a relaxing Sunday afternoon…well done, Polisu Art ️
I have totally enjoyed this class. It was such a relaxing afternoon learning to draw in charcoal.
Gerard, our teacher is such a patient and passionate about art.
I am going to go back for another class. I’m thankful to my daughter for giving me this gift for my 60th birthday.
I love it!!!
I bought this class for my friend's birthday present and we both did it together.
You dont have to be artistic or skilled as you are shown the steps first and then help us available throughout the class.
Was a fun way to catch up with my friend Debra
Absolutely amazing experience!! I took my mum and my nonna and Dami (I hope I am spelling that correctly) was the most beautiful soul. She was so kind, caring and so patient with everyone. I would highly recommend this as a present of any kind or perfect for as a Mother’s Day gift!!
I received a gift voucher to complete my own terrarium at Botanista.
I went along with many other like minded people. We all had a lot of fun creating our very own terrarium with our own unique visions. There was no pressure and it was fun.

We had so much fun during this workshop, the host was lovely and the flowers turned out so good!! Couldn’t recommend it more as a gift for someone or just a fun experience!
The ramen making class was a gift from friends and I'm absolutely delighted that I did it. The whole experience is really enjoyable, from the introduction over a glass of wine, to the practical to getting to eat the delicious result.
Tony is really patient and explains each step in detail. I left really feeling as though I could replicate the result at home.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my best friend and it’s in the list of best presents I’ve bought. We ended up being the only 2 people in the class and it was great! Our teacher helped us tweak our perfumes so we came out with a scent we both loved.
I received the perfect gift in a ClassBento gift voucher- I attended a relaxing, fun beginners evening pottery class at Urth Clay.

What a great way to spend a couple of hours. Nora was a great instructor who answered all our many questions. I highly recommend this as a gift idea. It's the gift that will keep giving. Also the take away printed photo will be a great reminder for years to come. Thank you
Beautiful venue, smelled amazing as soon as you walked in. Lovely, knowledgeable hostess. Created a personalised scent whilst enjoying bubbles and brownies, doesn’t get any better. Thank you, a perfect gift for someone special.

Eda was so lovely and informative which made the whole class extra special, the afternoon flew by We want to come again and do another one.

We had such a fun night and learnt so much! Was very impressed with what we could achieve with great guidance. Thank you, it was a great gift for mums birthday.
Excellent class, 10/10, I had a great time! The teachers are so lovely, friendly and I could tell they have a real passion for the plants. It was really fun, nice atmosphere, lots of succulents of all different shapes and sizes and decorations to choose from, and learnt about how to care for them in the process. Nibbles were amazing btw, and now I have a gorgeous Christmas tree full of succulents toExcellent class, 10/10, I had a great time!

This made the perfect gift for myself and my mum. The way Caroline structured the class was perfect. Jumping between mixing, baking, using cakes prepared earlier, taste testing and decorating cakes.
Caroline made everything simple and I was pleased that I was never bored and learned lots
My 14 year old son attended the pottery class and had a great time. He managed to make 2 plates, a mug and a doughnut. He has asked to go again next year. The instructors were very helpful with helping him be successful. It was a great gift idea

Did the pasta cooking class with my family as an early Christmas present experience and we had a great time. Well organised, happy to explain & answer questions. Everything was ready to go when we arrived and catered for 3 dairy intolerant family members. Thanks for a fun evening
Went with my daughter as a belated birthday gift for her. The instructor was super friendly, easy to understand instructions, very helpful. It was honestly like magic working with this normal-looking clay and then seeing this shiny silver ring at the end! Highly recommend this class - not the cheapest but you'd pay a similar amount for a custom-designed silver ring and here you get to do it yourself! Would definitely take another class!
Bought a voucher as a gift for my sister. We had a great time. Teacher was excellent and made the experience easy and enjoyable. Brought home lots of delicious truffles to share
We received the sushi cooking class as a gift and thoroughly enjoyed getting our hands dirty making them! Great instruction and handy tips from the teacher. Really fun and something different to share with my partner.
Fantastic! Highly recommend. Great gift idea or if you just want to try something different. Haven’t stopped talking about it and smelling my new fragrance!
This was a gift from my wife.
Gerard was very knowledgeable and great company. I learned a lot and enjoyed the day
Ideal venue. The gallery was the perfect place for an art class
All materials were as needed
I learned how to set up my painting first with sketching how to obtain the right lines and perspectives. Never used acrylic paint before and found how versatile and forgiving they are for a beginner.
Value for money - yes for sure
What I like most was the techniques I learned, working with Gerard and having something tangible at the end
I got this class as a birthday present from my best friend and we got to do it together! The teacher was great, super patient whilst explaining how to mold the clay and she was so kind to help us all and make sure everyone was doing well. Venue was nice and tidy, a true pottery studio!
I have learnt how to mold clay into a mug and we had so much fun doing it!
I bought this tutorial as a gift for my 63yo wife.
She has never been a big wearer of make up but wanted to start including a little in her daily routine.
She was never totally happy though...her heyday was some time ago and she felt her style was somewhat dated.
I wanted her to be confident in her choices and thought this tutorial would help, so I booked a solo session.
She could not have been more pleased with the tutorial, and with Alessandra's warm and friendly way of imparting her knowledge.

Well our tour of the Central Markets was a gift from our 3 adult children and their families, it was a Xmas gift, I can honestly say, and have told them all it really was a fantastic gift and we would certainly recommend it to others to do.

Enjoyed a lovely evening with my daughter at ClassBento pottery class at Urth Clay Studio Goodwood. The teacher was super lovely, very welcoming and so helpful.

This was a Christmas present and was so much fun! Such a great activity to do together and delicious getting to enjoy the chocolates afterwards. The teacher was lovely and explained everything really well. A casual laid back class we felt comfortable to ask questions and got to work in groups with new people.
It was a present for his birthday. The venue was conveniently located and there was plenty of work space. We made a cup with a marble pattern. The process of making it was delicate and difficult, but it was a wonderful time. She revised our work over and over again and taught us how to do it. Thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product!
Birthday gift from my daughter. Alex was very knowledgeable and passionate about his flavour sources and styles I took a bottle of the coconut one I didn't think I would like home
This was a birthday gift from a special friend and it was perfect! We so enjoyed a relaxed afternoon of crafting in Joy's Studio making our fused glass hearts. Joy is friendly and knowledgeable and makes all her own colourful glass beads for the classes on site. Surrounded by unique and eye-catching pieces, your imagination is stretched in wonderful ways. We chose to frame our handmade hearts and Joy even gave us the option to add a quote or a few words inside the mount. Delighted! Great workshop!
this class was absolutely wonderful! I booked this as a gift for my mum and I, it was so lovely, shirley was unbelievably wonderful so helpful, understanding and patient my mum and I cant wait to take another class with them.
This lesson was a gift to me. The teacher was great - relaxed, experienced and knowledgeable, and very helpful. In particular it was very valuable to pick up practical tips on drawing/sketching with charcoal. The time went very quickly and it was a very fruitful and enjoyable experience.
For a second time, I have been blown away by my experience at Red Rosie. This was the perfect birthday gift for my mum and such a memorable experience. Can't wait to come back soon and make another candle.
This workshop was amazing. It was a gift for my Mum for Mother's Day and we couldn't have asked for a better way to spend a couple of hours together. It was beautifully set out and nothing was too much trouble for Nasrin. She and her husband made us feel welcome in their home and most importantly she was a great teacher. My Mum and I walked away with 6 beautiful cupcakes all decorated by us Thank you Nasrin for making the
workshop such a lovely experience ❤️
We had a fabulous time learning about Japanese cooking techniques and ingredients. Yuki and Tomoko were friendly and lots of fun. The food we made was delicious and we can’t wait for our next dinner party so we can share our new skills. This was a gift from our daughter which was perfect for us cooking enthusiasts. Great value for money. As well as tasting our dumplings and Nikuman as a group, we were also able to take some home for tea. Thanks girls! A fabulous class.

Experience gift cards can boost wellbeing
If you’ve ever wondered what the benefits are of gifting experiences over traditional gifts, we’re here to help shed some light. Experience gift cards are so much more than just the excitement of trying something new or learning a skill. They're also incredibly beneficial for your wellbeing! Research has shown that engaging in creative activities can help reduce stress, promote positivity and boost mental health. So, when you gift an experience voucher, you're essentially gifting joy, relaxation and a much-needed break from the daily grind!
Picture your loved one immersing themselves in a painting class, letting their worries melt away as they focus on their canvas and colours. Or imagine them laughing with friends at a pottery workshop as they shape clay into funky pots and vases. These moments of joy and relaxation are priceless, and a pretty cool perk to our digital gift cards.
And it's not just about individual enjoyment either. Group experiences can help connect friends, family members and even colleagues too. Whether it's a team building cooking class or a group painting session, shared experiences create lasting memories that go well beyond a physical gift.
Plus, with our ClassBento experience vouchers, your giftee will have the freedom to choose what they want to do and when they want to do it! This flexibility ensures that your gift fits perfectly into their schedule and preferences. If you’re curious as to how experience gifts work, it really is as simple as purchasing online and sharing a digital (or physical) copy with the lucky giftee. They’ll have over 9,000 experiences to choose from when they’re ready to redeem!
Spark romance with these unique couples vouchers
Shared experiences make the heart grow fonder, and in the case of gifts for couples, an artisan workshop could be just what a pair needs to take time out and reconnect. Experience vouchers allow the couple to choose an activity they’ve always wanted to try together or something that will encourage them to give a new experience a crack!
For adventurous couples, they might opt for an invigorating night photography course in the city or a welding workshop for beginners. Those searching for romantic ways to celebrate an anniversary could opt for a private cooking class or wine tasting experience—in fact, an anniversary gift card can open up so many intimate and romantic possibilities!
If you’re feeling stuck, it’s best to always remember what couples activities the pair love to do together. If they’re dedicated plant parents, a terrarium or kokedama class might be the pick that’s most meaningful for them. Or if they’re passionate gin lovers, a gin blending masterclass may be the best environment for them to reconnect and make new memories.
