Things to do in Blue Mosque

Visiting Hagia Sophia was the main purpose of this trip. It was a shame that both the exterior and interior were under renovation. Nevertheless, it was truly wonderful to experience the profound historical significance of this cultural heritage site, with its frescoes and even graffiti from when it was used as a mosque after being an Orthodox church, all preserved as they were. Although there's a mobile Japanese audio guide, I had to infer a lot because many parts of the AI voice's Japanese were incomprehensible. The speaking speed was also slow, so I set it to 1.5x speed, which made it sound normal. Still, I believe you can't talk about sightseeing in Istanbul without seeing Hagia Sophia. I'm glad I went.

The mosque itself is beautiful and the guide did really take us back in time and provide us interesting facts about the place.

Amazing experience! Our tour guide was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and took great care of us throughout the trip. Highly recommended!

our guide was a lovely lady , who shared lots of interesting information about the sites we saw. she was very approachable and waited to ensure everyone got to see and hear her.

Excellent overall, our tour guide Ali was very courteous and friendly, explained everything very well and locations were all covered, good value for money.

Can was very friendly and came punctually. We did the walking tour and we chatted a lot along the way, exchanging ideas and culture differences. He was very experienced and we didn’t have to rush throughout the walking trip. Will look him up again during next trip in Istanbul

Our tour guide Omar was extremely helpful and knowledgeable.He explained everything in detail.Only that we couldn’t visit Basilica Cistern as it was closed for some maintenance work wasn’t good about the trip.Rest Istanbul is very beautiful.

Great experience and worth every peny. We were only the ones who participated in the tour and it seemed like we had our private guide. Our tour guide, Elaida, was very knowledgeable about the different tourist spots. So much to see in just a span of 12 hours. Great lunch as well.

Our guide Mr Baris is very knowledgeable and helpful. He shared a lot about the history of the places. However, as it’s a walking tour, it is quite tiring especially for those a little older. Nonetheless a good tour to began with at Istanbul.
