This one day tour to Konya was a perfect day! We discovered a great part of the silk road and an ancient carawansarai where you still feel the vibrant atmosphere of old times before we headed to Konya. Ferai, our guide, knows a lot about Rumis and Shams lifes, their teachings and anecdotes, it was so interesting to listen to her. I had enough free time to visit Rumis tomb and the ancient dervish lodge to know more about daily life there and how people could become a dervish. We also visited a madrasa with one of the most beautiful entries in Turkey.
Lunch was also great, we went to a restaurant with typical Konya food, excellent! And since it was a small group, we could ask all our questions and not just learn about Sufism, but also about Turkey in general. Ferai and Ali, thank you so much again for this unforgettable day!
