Ting at lave i Dolmabahçe Palace

The palace is definitely worth visiting and I recommend it to everyone. It was very easy to book the tickets on Klook, but you need to keep in mind that the skip the line allows you to skip the ticket line only, not the first security check line. When I went, for the ticket office the line was very short, just a few people, while the security line was very long, all the way to the street. 📸 If you want to take a photo with the sea gates, do not stop at the first one if there is a huge line, you can walk along the iron fence and you’ll find four more sea gates. I saw many people lining up for the first gate, but the other ones had 1-2 people taking photos.

Buying the Hagia Sophia and Basilica Cistern combo ticket this time was very convenient. Purchasing in advance on Klook saved time waiting in line for tickets on-site. Both attractions are well worth visiting; the lighting and overall atmosphere of the Basilica Cistern are especially unique, and walking through it in person is even more breathtaking than the photos. The Hagia Sophia is also magnificent and great for first-time visitors to Istanbul. Advance ticket purchase is recommended!

The food is very good and the experience of the cruise is very nice. Everything was nice. The server hasan was excellent, and every show on this cruise was fantastic. When the belly dancer performed, she was a showstopper; she stole the show. The entire cruise was incredibly amazing. The cruise journey started with a welcome drink and food. Once the ship left the dockyard, dinner was served, which was amazing. The service from the guy named Hassan was excellent. Then the show started. Oh my God, the cruise shows were all very, very good. Everything was good. The belly dancer, when she entered, was a showstopper. She will steal your heart, 110%. Her moves and dance were incredible. Everything was so good, and the service was top-notch. You will spend your three hours beautifully.

Vi nød en smuk udsigt over Bosporusstrædet fra en fantastisk beliggenhed, indtil solen gik ned. Vi kunne se Dolmabahçe-paladset, Rumeli Hisarı og Jomfrutårnet smukt fra havsiden, mens vi passerede broen. Kokken Ahmet serverede varm te og delte tæpper ud til os. Frugtfadet, småkagerne og de ekstra pommes frites og toast var også meget lækre. Med drikkevareservice er dette en tur med god værdi for pengene, som jeg varmt kan anbefale. Bestil endelig drikkevarer og ekstra mad! Tak for den fine magnetgave! Dette er min tredje gang i Tyrkiet, men dette krydstogt var det bedste, da vi kunne slappe af og nyde musikken i ro og mag. Tak for den fremragende service, kok Ahmet!

Balena og hele holdet bag Golden City Tour gjorde et fantastisk stykke arbejde med at arrangere og guide turen. De betjente os godt og tog sig rigtig godt af os. Besøg ved mange seværdigheder med lidt historie og fakta formidlet rigtig godt. Gode anbefalinger og fantastisk gæstfrihed!

It was a wonderful experience. The boat offers drinks and snacks, along with an audio guide throughout the journey. The vessel is large, clean, and new with a great atmosphere and beautiful views. You can enjoy the scenery and learn about the history of various locations situated along the Bosphorus Strait. Service: Excellent Safety: Excellent Itinerary: Excellent Sights along the way: Excellent Value for money: Outstanding

A Bosphorus cruise is a must-do activity when visiting Istanbul, Turkey, as the scenery along the Istanbul coastline is incredibly beautiful. Due to time constraints, I only opted for the short tour, but if I ever have the chance, I definitely want to experience a dinner cruise.

Da det var højsæson, og jeg rejste med min mor, bookede jeg en fast-track billet for nemheds skyld. Jeg har tidligere, når jeg rejste alene, brugt audioguides til at udforske museer og paladser grundigt, så jeg bookede fast-track-muligheden (inklusive audioguide). Det viste sig dog, at den ikke inkluderede haremområdet. Hvis man skal købe adgang til haremet separat ved billetkontoret inde i paladset, koster det yderligere 1040 lira, hvilket er omkring 35.000 won, så det ville nok have været bedre at købe en guidet tur fra starten. Paladset er så stort og har så mange seværdigheder, at det tog os 3 timer bare at udforske det selv, og vi besøgte det en søndag, hvor der var lange køer ved hver sektion. Derfor tænkte jeg, at det ville have været mere effektivt, hvis en guide havde peget på de vigtigste steder og det, man absolut skulle se. Desuden er audioguiden, der er inkluderet i denne billet, ikke den officielle paladsfortælling, men en meget mere forenklet version. Hvis man er meget interesseret i historie og udforsker alene, ville den officielle version nok være bedre, men på en dag som i dag, hvor vi nød at se smukke og sjældne artefakter, lyttede vi alligevel ikke til fortællingen, selvom den var der. Så det var ikke et problem. Billetten udveksles inde i mødestedet (Bistrot), og på det aftalte tidspunkt fører værten os direkte ind i paladset. Det var rart at kunne komme lidt tidligt, drikke noget og vente i ro og mag, og værten talte tydeligt engelsk, så jeg tænkte, at det ville have været endnu bedre med en engelsk guidet tur. Konklusionen er, at selv en simpel guidet tur er bedre end ingen, og jeg anbefaler en tur, der inkluderer haremområdet, når man nu alligevel tager afsted. Jeg fortryder dog ikke, at jeg udforskede det frit, og jeg var virkelig glad, fordi Topkapi-paladset var så storslået. Med sin panoramaudsigt, arkitektur og de indre artefakter og juveler er det en must-see attraktion, som jeg varmt kan anbefale at besøge, selvom entréprisen er høj!

What an excellent cruise tour by viatime, we all have a memorable time and experience, food was nice and host was very courteous. thankyou Viatime
