Great. - We were there with our guide, [email protected] . We are transported to another world. This is not a show but a ceremony composed of 7 phases. Listening to music and prayer. To see once

Spiritual experience. - A unique and deeply spiritual experience. Experience the entire ritual and immerse yourself in its chants and movements. At the end, they repeat a portion of the dance for photos.

Rotating dervishes. Solemn ceremony - The pick-up and drop-off Service at our hotel was very efficient and punctual. The show, which is actually a real solemn ceremony, is really engaging.

Was a very interesting,... - Was a very interesting, solemn ceremony to witness. You have to respect that it is a religious ceremony that they give you the opportunity to witness, as such respect should be given in kind, by not talking, not taking photos during the ceremony. Time is given afterwards where 4 of the dancers remain behind to perform the whirling again to allow photos/videos to be taken. In all the performance takes about an 50m-1h and we were given cinnamon tea afterwards as we were taken through the souvenir shop. The pickup and drop-off was well organised (communicated through WhatsApp) and prompt. Highly recommend to see for an insight into this interesting culture.

Good support - Perfect organisation. They took us by taxi from the hotel and after the dervishes dance, they returned us to the hotel.

Happy to finally see in person. - Our driver picked us up promptly, we were the second group to show up we had great seats. Was happy to finally see this in person. I only gave it a four star out of five because I felt that their syncing and timing was off from seeing many videos before.

Interesting, but location not as shown in the pictures. - It was interesting to experience and something that is definitely worth doing, but the pictures are of a completely different venue and this location is far less authentic.
