This is an opportunity to see one of the most beautiful and spiritual ceremonies in the world. Thec show in Cappadocia is a must-see for anyone who wants to experience true Turkish culture. You will be mesmerized by the spinning of the dervishes, and their trance-like state as they reach a higher level of consciousness. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see something truly magical.
The Sema (whirling dervishes) ceremony represents the mystical journey of man's spiritual ascent through love and his search for truth and perfection. It is believed that once a man has returned from his spiritual journey, he can love and be of service to all creatures surrounding him. Tonight, you have the opportunity to experience an authentic Cappadocian ceremony and witness an ancient Turkish ritual.
You will be collected from your accommodation in the Avanos, Göreme or Ürgüp area at approximately 21:00 and transported by luxury air-conditioned transport to the caravanserais. These abodes were built when trade across Turkey in medieval Seljuk times was dependent on camel trains. The buildings provided accommodation for the merchants and stabling for their animals. Today these ancient structures are the site of The Sema.
The ceremony lasts for one hour and after the performance, you will be transported back to your accommodation.

I had an amazing experience at the Cappadocia 1-Hour Whirling Dervishes Show. The pick up and drop service was very nice. The Whirling Dervishes are definitely a must if in Cappadocia. I will recommend this to everyone!
