The tour to the Hagia Sofia and Blue mosque and Bascillica Cistern were great. The Bosphorus ferry was a total mess.very disorganized and way too much walking. Why can't you limit the size of the group. The tour guide couldnt control such a large group. No one could hear him. No one knew they had to go to the online desk to get a cruise ticket. People were just running wildly to try to keep up with him. Very unruly. That's the reason we gave an average rating.

Kürzlich haben wir eine Tour zu einigen der berühmtesten Sehenswürdigkeiten Istanbuls unternommen, darunter die Hagia Sophia, die Blaue Moschee und die Cisterna Basilica. Leider war das Erlebnis insgesamt sehr enttäuschend, da weder Audioguides noch Kopfhörer zur Verfügung gestellt wurden. Wir waren eine große Gruppe und es war fast unmöglich, den Führer zu hören oder die Erklärungen zu verstehen. Die geschichtlichen und kulturellen Hintergründe, die diese Orte so faszinierend machen, gingen uns so völlig verloren. Ohne Audioguide oder Kopfhörer waren wir gezwungen, uns durch die Menge zu drängen und die Informationen selbst zu suchen, was den Besuch sehr stressig und unbefriedigend machte. Für ein so wichtiges touristisches Ziel hätten wir einen viel besseren Service erwartet. Insgesamt war die Tour absolut schlecht organisiert und wir würden sie unter den gegebenen Umständen nicht weiterempfehlen. Eine Investition in Audioguides und Kopfhörer wäre dringend erforderlich, um den Besuchern ein zufriedenstellendes und informatives Erlebnis zu bieten.

The 3 guides for Topkapi, Hagia Sophia and Sultanahmet Mosque, Sunken Palace were excellent: there was helpful information and comments that are not in the guidebook and they were very helpful!

The app to make reservations is excellent. There is always the concern if it is real and not a fraud. I can attest that it is real, it is not a fraud. They are very punctual according to the times indicated for each tour. There has never been any inconvenience. Two things need to be improved: They walk too fast forgetting that in the group there are older people who walk slower. And when they offer the tour, they explain almost nothing because they are in a hurry to leave. My tour at the Blue Mosque was about 30 minutes when it was supposed to be 90 minutes. The Hagia Sophia tour took about 15 minutes.

Your experience

Hagia Sophia

Originally a church that was later converted into a mosque during the Ottoman Empire, and finally, a museum, enter the Hagia Sophia, the meeting point of two major religions of the world. From the beautiful galleries to Ottoman Tombs, witness the showcase of a unique history in an alluring way.

Topkapi Palace

Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985, and home to the Ottoman Sultans for over 400 years, the Topkapi Palace has several courtyards, pavilions, and gardens to explore. Get a feel of the local legends, myths, and stories about the palace. Spot the harem and exit the attraction with the feeling of understanding Istanbul better!

Basicilia Cistern

'From Russia With Love' and 'Inferno'- do any of these ring a bell? The Basicilia Cistern has always been a part of popular culture that was built during the reign of Justinian I. This structure is a paragon of 6th-century Byzantine architecture. As you enter this colossal marvel, a dim golden hue that glistens off the surface of the water will welcome you. The Medusa column bases, located in the northwest portion of the Cistern are an absolutely mesmerizing sight. Hear about the mysterious origin of the two stone heads oriented sideways from your guide.

Blue Mosque

Be transported back in time during your visit to one of the oldest and most beautiful mosques in the world, the Blue Mosque. Along with an expert guide, experience and learn about the spiritual side of Istanbul. It is located in the heart of Sultanahmet, close to many other attractions included in your ticket.

Bosphorus Cruise

Sail along the beautiful Bosphorus Waterway for 90 mins. Board your cruise at Dentur Avrasya Kabatas, and a marine officer will welcome you at the pier. Onboard, enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, and soak in the phenomenal views of the city. Spot the impressive Hagià Sophia domes, the Galata Tower that soars over the entire city, and the legendary Bosphorus Bridge, which is known to connect Europe and Asia.
