Whirling Dervishes Ceremony in Istanbul
Watch the Mevlevi whirling dervishes perform the Sema ceremony at the Hodjapasha Cultural...
Turkish Night in Istanbul: hotel pick-up, a set-menu dinner at a traditional restaurant and a two-hour show of folk dances, belly dancing, a village wedding and drums.
Turkish Night is the classic way to spend an evening in Istanbul with the whole family. You are picked up from your hotel at 19:30 and driven to a traditional restaurant in the Kumkapi–Sultanahmet area, where a set-menu dinner is served; the food is halal and an alcohol-free table can be requested.
From 21:00 to 23:00 the stage comes alive with Ottoman fasil music, Anatolian folk dances from different regions, belly dancers, the Asuk Masuk dance, a re-enacted village wedding and a closing drum show. Families who prefer can ask for the family section when booking. English- and Arabic-speaking staff look after you all evening, and the return transfer brings you back to your hotel.
