My family and I had a great experience making our bags! Heather and Cameron were exceptionally helpful throughout the process and were all very happy with how our bags turned out. It’s definitely something we would recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

What a fun experience! Elly and Charlotte were fantastic. Knowledgeable, friendly and funny. We had a great time making our bags and would definitely recommend!

Both Charlotte and Ellie gave us an experience to remember. Having issues with my hands I thought it may be hard to do. Both ladies made sure I was able to to everything or helped us to do what we could not do. I personally would highly recommend the experience. Both fun, and good to do as you finish the product to your taste. Thank you to both the above mentioned. You made us welcome and the experience interesting and fun!

Ellie and Charlotte were so helpful during the workshop. It was a great experience and I love my bag!

Annalise and Chris were amazing and so friendly

Such an enjoyable, authentic Edinburgh experience! Elly and Charlotte led a fun class - with helpful tips and witty humor. I will be telling everyone about my special bag I made at Islander!!

Such a fun place.Excellent choices of color purses, very friendly staff. We love Beatrice and Michelle. Highly recommended ❤️

Anneliese and Ellie were great! They were very helpful and our party of 4 had a great time!

The workshop itself was already so fun and exciting, on top of that experience Ellie and Annalise made it even better. They made the environment super nice and welcoming.

I had been looking forward to this experience for months. Expectations exceeded! Some reviews suggested there would be limited color choices, yet everyone in our workshop seemed satisfied with the selection. Would recommend!!!

Heather was the lead speaker and did an amazing job holding the attention of the people while instructing them on how to build the individual product.

Be warned the wash bag is DIFFICULT to build. Cameron checked over my bag and congratulated me on completing the build. Would highly recommend !

Isaac was an amazing instructor. We thoroughly enjoyed this workshop! Thank you

It was so much fun! Lucy and Kirsty were fabulous and so so helpful, I really enjoyed the experience and am so happy with my bag.

What a unique experience! Lucy, Heather, and Kristy made sure our experience was enjoyable!

So fun to make memories at the same time as a really unique keepsake. Lucy, Heather and Kirsti were terrific and kept is laughing as well as made sure our satchels were put together just right. We had a great time. Thanks so much!!

Went to the Canongate location and had an amazing time! The entire staff (Lucy, Heather, and Kirsty) were incredibly friendly and provided a wonderful atmosphere! I chose the toiletries kit tote which turned out exactly how I hoped! Such a fun memory with my family!

Great class with Ellieand Analiese! Cozy workshop, great selection of colors and materials. Very easy to follow.

Such a fun experience. We got lost on the buses and ended up being a bit late and they were still kind and accommodating. The process is great, customizing to your tastes is ideal!

Such fun. Great guidance from Lucy and Heather. The choice is amazing but I’d done my homework and knew how I wanted to style my bag. The combinations are amazing and everyone’s bags looked amazing. I’d recommend this as a group or on your own, so friendly and simple and you leave with a stunning bag you will be proud of. Not sure? Do it! Great yourself!

Just made the backpack and the experience was AMAZING!! Lucy and Heather were so sweet and patient! Definitely would come back again and recommend this experience as it is a one of a kind!
