• 5/5 from Maisy Gale, attended Mar 2026: Lovely Sunday morning doing the florist workshop. Lauren was our guide — her knowledge of the Columbia Flower Market and flowers themselves was amazing. She was incredibly helpful and patient with each of us while we created our bouquets. Highly recommend whether you fancy a solo activity or going with friends. I’d love to do it again in the winter season and create a wreath!

• 5/5 from Stephanie Morane, attended Jun 2025: I had the best time discovering Columbia flower market and then learning how to make a spiral bouquet, playing with the different type of flowers and their height. I lOOOOOOved it! Thank you the Flower Factory London!!
• 3/5 from Zoe Ganch, attended Jun 2025: I would have liked a little more history and proactive information on the market tour. I feel like we could have walked through the market without a guide and it wouldn’t have been too different. The bouquet workshop was relaxing and fun. I learned some good tips. I recommend just seeing the market on your own and just doing the bouquet workshop.
• 4/5 from Yin King Yang, attended May 2025: The class was a lot of fun and we had a great time. The tour of the flower market nearby the studio was a very good experience.
• 5/5 from Natalia Ignatenko, attended Apr 2025: We had the best time on our Colombia road visit and flower arrangement tour.

• 5/5 from Gwen Williams, attended Jan 2025: Nono was really lovely and warm and made the experience very person centred. She could answer any questions I had and was more than willing to offer any support she could. The experience was very wholesome and fun and I would recommend it a thousand times over.
• 5/5 from Lizzy, attended Sep 2024: Really fun, very relaxed intro to bouquet making. Our tutor Nono was very knowledgable and encouraging. There was a really nice range of flowers to choose from, so everybody came away with a very different bouquet!
• 5/5 from Alan & Chris, attended Aug 2024: Nono, the Japanese florist, who accompanied me in the tour and then help me compose my bouquet, was very kind and knowledgeable. She gave me all support I was expecting and even more!
• 5/5 from Hazel Rogers, attended Jul 2024: I purchased a voucher for my friend's birthday and we did the market tour and bouquet workshop. Nono and Pablo were so nice and friendly, and we had a nice relaxed tour of the market where we learnt about the flowers and could ask questions. We then had some free time before returning to the workshop which was a short walk away to create our bouquets. Kin arrived to take us through the class and it's not as easy as it looks! We both really enjoyed our session and learnt a lot, and had a beautiful bouquet to take home.
• 5/5 from Dean Hatfield, attended May 2024: Lovely morning spent with our host browsing the market then making bouquets back at the studio close by. Lots of advice on how to construct a hand tied bouquet. Our host was delightful - so friendly and helpful (sorry I forgot her name).
• 5/5 from Ama Williams, attended Feb 2024: A wonderful workshop! Kihn and Jean were great company and wonderful teachers. It was nice to learn about flowers and amazing to make our own bouquet. They turned out beautiful, thanks for a wholesome morning!
• 5/5 from Michael, attended Feb 2024: We had an enjoyable few hours learning about flowers during a walk down Columbia Road and then back to the studio to make a beautiful hand tied bouquets with seasonal flowers. Khin was a great teacher, it was a lovely venue and good value for money. Highly recommended.
• 5/5 from Julianne Poston, attended Oct 2023: This was such a fantastic class - both the tour of the flower market and the flower arranging part. Teachers were so friendly and helpful and the final bouquet was stunning. Definitely recommend.
• 5/5 from Anne Fox, attended Aug 2023: Brilliant experience all round. Instructors were really good and very patient. I would highly recommend it.
• 5/5 from Carolina Dias, attended Jul 2023: The workshop with Khin was a great experience that I recommend for everyone I work as a florist in my home country which has a tropical climate. There I had the chance to get to know a street flower market and use local seasonal flowers that I rarely see back home. Khin is a very kind and competent teacher and has a lovely way of teaching! And is so nice to meet passionate people who love flowers too
• 3/5 from Sophie Ruston, attended Jul 2023: The class was a good morning out and I did enjoy, however I wouldn’t say it was worth the money spent on it. The tour was interesting but if you have been to Columbia road flower market before you don’t see anything you haven’t seen before, and are given time to roam it freely, which you can do free of charge anyway. The class itself is interesting but the flowers are chosen ahead of the class by the teacher (not from the market) and style of arrangement is demonstrated and told to copy rather than anything being taught, then the class is over. The class is only 2.25 hours once everyone has arrived and then it finishes at 12:30 not 1 so I was a little disappointed as it felt quite rushed and wasn’t the 3 hours advertised. Khin was friendly and I don’t like leaving bad reviews however I felt the transparency was important as this is an expensive class!
• 5/5 from Nuala Polo, attended Jun 2023: We had such a lovely day at the workshop! Khin was super friendly and knowledgable, giving us a really interesting tour of the market itself. After, we headed back to the studio where he has picked absolutely gorgeous flowers and we each left with a beautiful bouquet! Would highly recommend.
• 5/5 from Amy Hetherington, attended Jun 2023: A fantastic informative morning learning about flowers at Columbia road, but also how to arrange them. We walked away with such gorgeous bouquets that people were stopping us in the street to compliment us.
• 5/5 from Sophie Lindsen, attended May 2023: My mum and I attended as her birthday gift- such a fab way to spend the morning. Khin is so knowledgeable and has the perfect balance of giving tips and encouraging creative freedom/chaos!
• 5/5 from Kate Nairn, attended May 2023: Lovely way to spend a Sunday morning. Khin is a great teacher and made it both fun and informative
• 5/5 from Stephanie Kaluza, attended Mar 2023: The workshop was so enjoyable and insightful. I learnt a lot and came away with a lovely bouquet of flowers. Khin was a great host and tutor! Would definitely recommend.
• 5/5 from Corina Barsa, attended Feb 2023: Really lovely getting to meet Kim and work in his flower workshop! Kim was lovely and approachable and shared some interesting insights on his transition from the corporate world into the bouquet design and lots of other stories. The materials he provided us with were beautiful and resulted in some amazing pieces of art under his watchful eye. Lovely day :) Thank you!
• 5/5 from Lara Barclay, attended Feb 2023: My husband bought me the flower market and workshop for Christmas. My mum an I have just finished our morning and have had the loveliest time. After meeting our teacher Khin and his lovely assistant Frankie we headed for columbia Road flower market. They were so knowledgeable and could see they are very passionate about what they do. We then went back to Khin's beautiful little workshop and created our bouquets. Khin talked us through step by step and we enjoyed every minute, such a wonderful thing to do with my mum on a sunny Sunday morning. Would highly recommend, you will have the best time Thankyou. Lara and Sarah xx
• 5/5 from Alysia Wanczyk, attended Feb 2023: What a great few hours in the East End. After a run through the market we got stuck into creating our own bouquets. Very good tips, advice and Q&A to cover everything you'd like around the topic - and he gave great feedback on our work. Highly recommend for a girls day out learning something creative!
• 5/5 from Liv Gregson, attended Feb 2023: The course was really lovely felt like a very wholesome morning. Our teacher Khin and his helper were amazing. They were really helpful and informative, they answered all of our questions, and the class felt really personal despite there being quite a few people there! We didn’t need to bring anything and we left with lots of new knowledge and a really nice bunch of flowers that we put together ourselves. Would definitely recommend for anyone who has an interest in floristry or just looking for something fun and wholesome to do in the morning. Thank you so much to everyone!
• 3/5 from Jemima Lanario, attended Feb 2023: A longer than needed tour in Colombia road and a very short time actually arranging the flowers… not the greatest experience and wouldn’t recommend
• 5/5 from Wadha Alraeesi, attended Jan 2023: Everything was perfect and everyone was very nice! I had a great experience thank you.
• 5/5 from Anthony Renton, attended Jan 2023: Teacher was knowledgable, fun and made the class such an enjoyable experience! Highly recommend booking!
• 5/5 from Tina Harrison, attended Oct 2022: I had a really enjoyable time on this course. The tour of the fabulous flower market given by Khin was informative and interesting. Then at the pretty flower studio Khin gave a clear demonstration of how to make a hand tied bouquet. The flowers we used were well organised and I liked using flowers I had not come across before. I was very pleased with my final arrangement and Khin was helpful with making sure it looked its best. He was an enthusistic and engaging teacher. Afterwards I went back to the market and bought some wonderful hydrangeas which Khin had talked about on the course. Thank you for a great experience.
• 5/5 from Yasmin Basusi, attended Oct 2022: Really fun class, learnt a lot from Khin. Great that his studio is close to the flower market.
• 5/5 from Ayaka Murai, attended Oct 2022: The teacher for my workshop was very kind and nice and taught us a lot about each flower we saw in the market which I loved. The flower materials are perfect as all seems that I cannot buy at normal supermarkets and I love all. And I enjoyed learning to make a bouquet today. The experience was good valur for money I can say for sure.
