What to expect

The tour starts in Istanbul with pick-up from Taksim AKM (Taksim Square) or Sultanahmet Bilgins Store. You will visit the studio, see battle scene locations, and learn how the sets and special effects were made.
Dirilis Ertugrul tells the story of Ertugrul Ghazi, father of Osman I. Kurulus Osman follows Osman Bey and the rise of the Ottoman Empire. Destan brings Turkish legends to life.
Enjoy a lunch break, explore more sets, and hear behind-the-scenes stories. At the end, return to Istanbul.
Good to know
- Arrive Early: If you’re getting picked up from Taksim or Sultanahmet, try to be a little early. Traffic can be heavy, especially on weekends, so you’ll want to get a good spot on the bus.
- Wear Comfortable Clothing and Shoes: The sets are large, and you’ll be walking a lot. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes and dress according to the weather to enjoy the tour without discomfort.
- Bring a Camera: You’ll want to capture the stunning sets and detailed costumes. The tour offers great photo opportunities, so don’t forget your camera or phone.
- Ask the Guides Questions: The expert guides are full of information about the shows and their history. Feel free to ask any questions about the filming process, set design, or even the actors.
- Be Ready for the Costumes: If you’re interested in trying on the costumes, keep in mind that there’s an extra fee. It’s a fun experience, but it’s best to decide in advance!
- Enjoy the Lunch Break: The lunch is included, so take your time to relax and refuel for the second part of the tour. You’ll be exploring for several hours, so the break is a great chance to recharge.

Review for: Guided Studio Tour
Really good tour, but the driver and pickup was late in about 40 min. The activity itself is pretty good
