Why You Should Pick This Pass

Save time and money, and enjoy complete flexibility as you discover the only city in the world to be built on two continents. Istanbul is where the mysticism of the East and the modernism of the West come together to strike a perfect balance between the traditional and the contemporary. This unique blend is often reflected in the city’s architecture, art, and cuisine. The Istanbul Tourist Pass allows you to time travel between the past, the present, and the future. Discover hidden shops, Turkish baths, bazaars, art galleries, mosques, and taverns. Get blown away by the visual experience of the so-called whirling dervishes. Discover top sights like Hagia Sophia, built by the Byzantines as a church only to be turned into a mosque after the conquest of Constantinople by the Ottomans. Spend a magical night around the Bosphorous which sits proudly between the Asian and European sides. Enjoy all this and more with your all-inclusive pass!
