    It was a wonderful ceremony; I was completely immersed in a very spiritual atmosphere. The chants, the dancing, and everything else that goes into the ritual were beautiful. All of us in the audience were spellbound by the artists’ mastery.

    A truly impressive and spiritual experience. The whirling dervishes and the Sufi dance were fascinating to watch and created a special, almost meditative atmosphere. The organization and flow were good, though it’s worth noting that this is more of a quiet, cultural performance than a traditional “show.” Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone interested in culture and spirituality.

    One of the attractions that alone makes the trip to Istanbul worthwhile. Wonderful atmosphere, lighting, and staff! I recommend going in the evening, as it’s much less crowded.

    The Cistern was very well organized. Entry was quick and seamless. It was not crowded at all during the night shift. The Cistern was also absolutely spectacular and well worth the cost of entry. Headout made it easy to purchase night shift tickets will in advance.

    Access was really quick and easy, thanks to the advance reservation made through Headout. Unfortunately, some structural elements inside have been secured with metal supports. It’s a real shame, but we hope it will be restored to its former state for the public.
