Reviews
This pass was super convenient and saved me a lot of time. I didn’t have to queue for ticket just scan the QR code and walk in. The only attraction that required meeting up with a guide was Topkapi Palace. The main queues were for the security check and the museum section inside the palace. Overall, it made sightseeing much easier.
Hagia Sophia was old and very raw. It’s not as beautiful as the Blue Mosque. Topkapi Palace took forever to get in. The line up was insanely long. Basilica Cistern was my favourite. Skip-the-line was an excellent choice otherwise the line was super long. It was beautiful inside!
Extremely convenient with amazing itineraries. While it's not cheap, the magnificent architecture makes it a must-see destination in one's lifetime.
The most valuable aspect of this pass is that it allows you to skip the lines and enter each attraction directly. The tour guide will also accompany you from the meeting point to the palace and suggest the best routes for visitors to take. After the tour guide accompanies the group to the palace grounds, the rest of the tour is self-guided. All three attractions are worth visiting, and they are close to each other, making them ideal for continuous visits. However, the Hagia Sophia is currently under renovation, which may slightly affect the visitor experience.
A very practical package that doesn't require queuing. You can enter and visit directly, saving time and convenience. For Topkapi Palace, just go to the designated meeting point, and a guide will lead you. It's very smooth, and the audio guide is also reasonably clear. Recommended!
Skip the queue was well worth the money! The ticket queue at the location was crazy long. Glad to have got this deal
The view is good but I think Sophia mosque should cost less as it is still under renovation
Overall, everything was fine. From my point of view, what isn't entirely clear is going to the Bistro to meet the guide; well, that part is, but when you get there, you don't actually have a ticket to validate. You have to show the email confirming the purchase you made. The tickets for the Basilica Cistern and Hagia Sophia arrived perfectly, and I don't know why they don't provide a purchase code to show at the Bistro kiosk where you have to go to enter Topkapi. In other news: - I'm asked to rate the guide: there's really not much to say about him since they just take you into Topkapi Palace, give you a 5-minute talk, and that's it. I'm giving 3* so as not to penalize them for this nonsense of having to rate them. - I'm asked to rate the transfer: what transfer? The one you take on foot from the kiosk where you meet the guide to Topkapi Palace, which you do by walking? Same thing, I'm giving 3* just to put something.
Great experience overall! My family and I truly enjoyed visiting the palaces, mosques, and the cistern — all were amazing. We purchased the skip-the-line ticket, though it wasn’t clear if it made much difference since we still had to queue. Fortunately, the line was manageable and the weather pleasant, so we got in within 20 minutes.
It was very smooth and convenient. As I was sent the tickets a day early and all the fast track made it easy to get in, skipping all the queues. Overall good, easy, relaxing experience.
