Istanbul: Blue Mosque Guided Tour

The guide was pleasant. His storytelling made our wait in line at the entrance much more enjoyable. We learned a lot of interesting information. Everything went as expected.

Skip the line tickets were the best thing we could do, it saved us hours of waiting in long queues under the sun. The group was quite small which make it easy to hear our guide. Our guide was great, he spoke very good English and explained everything in a very interesting way. I really liked that he also told us about Turkish history, culture, current situation in the country etc., I found it very interesting. Hagia Sofia was amazing and breathtaking. Basilica cistern was a big surprise, it's a beautiful place worth visiting. The time given in each place was enough for exploration and pictures. The tour overall took 4 hours. I highly recommend this tour when in Istanbul.

Arda, our guide, was awesome even tho it was sometimes hard to hear every word he said (to be fair every place we saw was quite crowded). Also the skip the line feature is super useful! There is enough time to take pics and buy water or food during the tour

Beautiful experience, well organized and with a kind, friendly and passionate guide! Definitely worth the price of the ticket. Plus you skip the queue for access to the sites, something not to be overlooked especially during the hottest times of the year.

It was an amazing experience and the best part was our guide Ms Buse. She was so thorough with the history of the places we visited with her and gave us all the details even if they were small. She was very courteous and understanding as we had a toddler with us.

The mosques were cool. The best part was our guide, Hal. Very knowledgeable and personable. It's always fun to talk classic rock while touring historical sites.

The Headout service was so good, the guide explanation was clear and he was supported with some additional photos and complementary information. In my case I had a little incident, I lost my guide outside Blue Mosque, fortunately one guide of Headout supported me to find my group. Thanks so much to save my visit!

Istanbul never disappoints and neither did our visit to Blue Mosque It's a very nice place to visit and a really beautiful monument. Our guide was very helpful and explained and discribed all the details of the mosque Quick tip, buy your tickets online to save big bucks. Lots of sweet deals online and definitely cheaper and quicker than buying them on-site.

Our guide (Haluk Barlas) was very knowledgeable, witty, and well-organized. He showed us a lot of hidden gems inside Basilica Cistern, Blue Mosque, and Hagia Sophia. Our guide kept the focus of the group by asking some basic questions about the history and culture of the monuments we were visiting. This participation and interaction elevated the whole experience to another level.

This walking tour in Turley was the absolute highlight of our vacation. Our guide was highly knowledgeable, he told us the most important details and it was very pleasent. I'd recommend wearing walking shoes because there's a lot to walk.

the detailed history of the different places of interest, shared by the tour guides. It was expansive anf insightful history and local stories. The Tour was packed full with, much to seek and take in with opportunity to spend a good time at each place.

Whole experience was well planned despite the fact that Basilica Cistern was closed. Guide offered to take us to another Cistern and it was a good decision. Our guide was amazing! With lots od knowledge and well spoken english.

To be honest, my partner and I felt a little bit underwhelmed by the tour. We did get to skip the line for the Hagia Sophia, but we got a 10 min briefing before we went in and then as soon as we entered our guide showed us to the audioguide area and left us saying "he wasn't allowed to guide us through" which we saw a sign for, however there were probably 50 groups that we saw that were being guided, so that felt weird. As for the Blue Mosque we could barely hear our guide and we only spent about 15 minutes inside, and it was free entry... So it definitely didn't feel worth €112 for two people. We more or less paid that much for just the Hagia Sophia and a 30 minute tour. Overall it was a fun day though and they are definitely sites worth seeing.

Eine wirklich interessante und kurzweilige Führung, vor allem weil unser Guide Onur immer mal wieder alltägliche "Funfacts" mit eingebracht hat. Ein Highlight zu einem fairen Preis!

Nice small tour is worth the money.
