What you can expect

  • IMPORTANT!!! PLEASE READ THE FULL DESCRIPTION!
    The start time of Ceremony is 18.00, if you pick only “entrance ticket option, you need to be there latest 17.45 and read the booklet for more information about the salutes and postures. Please remember if you pick up only entrance ticket no transfer or live guide.

    If you choose the option with transport and a guide, we pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to Motif Art Centre, an authentic cave house in Ortahisar, 20 minutes from Urgup and Goreme. It is presented to you as a unique and impressive experience with 2 different options prepared by the real dervishes of the Region . This is not any dance, show or tourist attraction, but a real Dervish Ceremony. That’s why during the ceremony shooting photos or videos not allowed. At the end of the official ceremony, 3 minutes additional performing for photos and videos will be realised.

    REMINDER: it is a ceremony and when you review the service please remember, as travel agency we provide you only early booking with skip the line opportunity. If you find it boring or not-interesting it is your personal feeling. Dervishes here do not focus on entertainment. When you give review at the end please be fair, and do not forget that as travel agency we are just responsible from ticketing process. If you are looking for entertainment you can go to Dance Show, not to a ceremony. This is our spiritual ceremony, not tourist entertainment service.
