He went to London to arrange the English language publication of his book about the travels. After a long and perilous journey he arrived back at Pest in May 1864. This was the first successful journey of its kind undertaken by a European and since it was necessary to avoid suspicion, VГЎmbГ©ry could not take even fragmentary notes, except by stealth. There he took leave of the band of dervishes and joined a caravan to Tehran, and from there, via Trebizond and Erzurum, to Constantinople, arriving there in March 1864. Upon leaving Samarkand, VГЎmbГ©ry began making his way back to Constantinople, traveling by way of Herat. VГЎmbГ©ry managed to maintain his pretences, and left the audience laden with gifts.

Initially, he aroused the suspicions of the local ruler, who kept him in an audience for a full half-hour. Together with his band of travelers, he then crossed Bokhara and arrived at Samarkand. Throughout this time, he succeeded in maintaining his disguise as 'Reshit Efendi,' so that upon his arrival at the Khanate of Khiva he managed to keep up appearances during interviews with Khan Sayyid Muhammad. He then went to Shiraz, through Ispahan, and in June, 1863, he reached Khorezm (Central Asia). His route lay from Trebizond on the Black Sea to Tehran in Persia, where he joined a band of pilgrims returning from Mecca, spending several months with them traveling across Central Iran (Tabriz, Zanjan, and Kazvin). Returning to Budapest in 1861, he received a stipend of a thousand florins from the academy, and in the autumn of the same year, disguised as a Sunni dervish, and under the name of Reshit Efendi, he set out from Constantinople. He also learned some twenty other Turkish languages and dialects. Later, he also published various other linguistic works. About this time he was elected a corresponding member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in recognition of his translations of Ottoman historians.ДЄfter spending about a year in Constantinople, he published a German-Turkish dictionary in 1858. He became a tutor in the house of Huseyin Daim Pasha, and, under the influence of his friend and instructor, Ahmet Efendi, became a full Osmanli, serving as secretary to Fuat Pasha. By the age of twenty, VГЎmbГ©ry had learned enough Ottoman Turkish to enable him to go, through the assistance of Baron Joseph EГ¶tvГ¶s, to Istanbul and establish himself as a private tutor of European languages.
