Szybki wstęp. Obsługa w Topkapi Café była nieco zagmatwana, a pracownicy nie byli zbyt zorientowani na klienta. Były bardzo gniewne komentarze od niektórych osób z sąsiedztwa. Wycieczka była w porządkuWyświetl oryginalną recenzję: język niemiecki

Pick this super-saver combo which includes access to two of Istanbul's must-visit attractions.
Basilica Cistern
Start your 30-minute tour of the mysterious, well-preserved underground reservoir known as Yerebatan Cistern. You will walk down 52 steps and pass 336 columns arranged in the 12 rows used to build it. Built by Byzantine Emperor Justinian the First (527–565) to meet the water needs of Constantinople, you will be amazed by the marble pillars and the artificial freshwater lake, which is the size of two football fields. Check out locations where the first James Bond film, "From Russia with Love," was shot in the 1960s. Don't miss the ancient Hen's Eye Column and will narrate the story of the mysterious Medusa Heads from Greek mythology. Once your guided tour is over, stay back and explore the maze of the cisterns at your own pace.
Topkapi Palace
Your skip-the-line tickets mean you bypass the large crowds and head straight for the security check. Take your time to explore the beautiful Topkapi Palace, a museum with exhibits of imperial collections from the Ottoman Empire. Your guide will regale you with stories and the colorful history of the palace, once the former residence of the Ottoman Sultans. You will see 30,000 archived documents. Visit the holy relics and the imperial kitchens and see magnificent Chinese porcelain. Step out to the outside terraces to catch views of the Golden Horn. After the tour, stay longer and delve deeper into its history with an audio guide.
