Why do I need to pre-select an alternate booking time?

Workshop availability is set by Culturally’s vendors. In the rare event that a workshop books out during the customer’s purchase time, or during unforeseen circumstances, Culturally aims to make the transaction as seamless as possible by offering both customer and vendor a secondary booking time to ensure higher confirmation success rates.

What is the difference between a “Private,” “Public” and “Pooled” workshop?

A private workshop is one attended only by members included in your own booking. A public workshop is open to the vendors’ own customers and will be given in the local language the workshop is located in (E.g. Chinese in Shanghai).

Is there a price difference in “Private” and “Public” Workshops?

Yes. Public workshops are generally cheaper.

Can I get an invoice?

Yes :) Culturally can provide you with an invoice if you provide the relevant details to [email protected].
