Booked many tours with this company and they are the best. Thank you for everything! Dervishes have an amazing story to tell and with this performance you get the whole package. From music, to dances, and from ideology to clothes. Simply wow. I have so many memories from that night and I think I will always remember what I got to witness. Do attend the show and you will remember my words. Fantastic!

eeply meaningful and well executed performance. Went with a friend of mine yesterday evening and by the end of the show we were overwhelmed with emotions. The acts are kind of symbolizing a different thing in dervishes’ ideology. So by the end you get this infamous whirling dance. That was our favourite part to be honest. Took many, many photos as every single performance was so spectacular. By the end of the night I was emotional, I don’t know, it makes you think of things differently. The agency was perfect also. We got transfers even though it wasn’t really far for the hotel. You should attend this show, it’s great.

If you wanna get the real Turkish culture, here you are!!! One of the most stunning things we’ve done on our holidays. The clothes of the dervishes even though simple create such a nice effect during the performance. It’s like having history, culture and tradition unfolding in front of your eyes. Went as a family and even the kids got excited, I wasn’t expecting that! The show it’s an absolute perfection and I couldn’t do anything else than applause at the end. I also wanna thank the company for the great service we received. I absolutely suggest this to all.

Joined last week with my sister and of course I recommend it! Everything was super. Such a great uplifting performance full of meanings and hidden messages. Our evening was so special because of this show and there were many people in the audience. Well, if you want to learn some things about the culture and history that’s the best alternative of sightseeing. You learn and get entertained at the same time. The company arranging our outing was very good. Found it online when checking for reviews/recommendations. You should try it also, trust me.

Outstanding representation of the country’s culture. What I just saw was simply amazing. My parents were so impressed with the how. It’s so meaningful and immersive. At a point we all felt part of the ceremony. I recommend it to all, I think is such a nice way to see the culture of these people. About the company now. I also recommend it. Nice booking, no problems at all. They picked us up from the hotel on time. They offer excellent service. Never booked with them before but they are trusted and everything went well.

Perfection! That’s the word describing what we watch last night!! Booked several tours with this company and they recommended to attend this show, and they were right! All the elements make it truly spectacular and then you get a full bunch of emotions. Had a great evening attending the dervish show. Well I think the whole thing is very spiritual, very out of the box and very away from the ordinary. Definitely not a tourist trap so yes I suggest this super show. After all it’s a great option for a quiet and smooth night outing when in Pamukkale.

Watch the show like 3 months ago and still have a very sweet memory about it. I’m not really into sightseeing and things like that but this show was something different. I can say that it works both ways. It is entertaining and it gives you an idea of the history and the culture. So yes anyone can attend and be satisfied at the end of the day. 100% value for money, totally worthy. My dad attended with me and he also liked it. The service we got was extremely good. Free transfers, comfy car, and quick communication. Overall I rate this show and this company with 5 stars.

Booked this with some friends, coz we found many positive feedbacks online. Very nice option. We liked it a lot. None of us knew about these people so it was like an introduction for us. I have to say they delivered a very good show, really impressive. We liked everything. Their clothes, their dance moves. Everything single move was carefully executed so the whole show is of very high quality. We all enjoyed and spent a lovely evening there. Recommended.

We had a delightful evening. This show is solid gold!! We’ve seen many pictures of this show as we were planning our holidays and booked immediately. The operator was very polite, we exchanged few WhatsApp massages and…done! The atmosphere of the show is really immersive. It’s like you escape from the reality for few hours. Personally I was impressed by the music and the dances. It’s very spiritual uplifting and relaxing at the same time. That was one of the best things I’ve done during my holidays in Pamukkale. Recommended to all!! Don’t miss it!!

Shahriar Ahmed Group Traveller Dervish show is spectacular. We got transfers with the price and everything was perfect. The place where the show takes place is just stunning. It was full of people, and now I can understand why. I honestly had no ideal about the whole dervishes thing, but now I’m really curious about their tradition. Every act is carefully presented, and holds a meaning. At the end of the show I was emotional but very calm and relaxed. They know exactly how to present the whole ideology behind this. Wow, it was superb. I strongly recommend this show.

Pamukkale Whirling Dervishes Ceremony ( i have to mention that it is not a show) was very informative and quite hypnotic. The place for the ceremony was in a circular theatre and was full of tourists ( so buy tickets online before going) Excursion Mania has free hotel transfer service in the region. The ceremony is great if you have some idea about Sufi mysticism and what devote men put themselves through to lose the ‘ego’. Everything takes place around 1 hour. Please remember that you can take pictures after the ceremony and also clapping is allowed as it is a religious ritual not a performance.
