We booked last minute and were still able to see everything we wanted to. Ticketing was straightforward. The Topkapi Palace tour was what we hoped for: descriptive, informative, and quick so we could go exploring on our own. Hagia Sophia and Basilica Cisterns were amazing to witness. Thank you for helping to make this a good experience.

Awesome experience. We went to Hagia Sofia at about 11 am . The line with online tickets was also long but with our tickets we got to get in very fast and smooth . At basilica , again the line was more then one hour wait , but with our skip the line tickets , we went inside in like 5 mins , the gate keeper stopped everyone and let us go in first, as they were skip the line tickets. Very smooth process of booking and having the app on phone was very helpful and fast.

Everything went smooth, from entrance to finish! A little bit complicated until I discovered how to download the audio guide.

It was worth seeing it. Luckily we had bought a skip the line ticket so we didn't have to queue. The space inside was overwhelming and the colour gradations on the artworks beautiful.

No problem with getting tickets where we really did avoid the queue. It had not worked previously at the Hagia Sofia so we were really happy to just walk in and out without any problems. Our audio didn't work but we read all the information inside, which was helpful.

A fairy-tale atmosphere, special architecture enhanced by works of art that subtly reveal themselves, enhancing the magic of the place

The incredible history behind the dome is spectacular. The narration highlighting each section / segment is enlightening. The mosaic on the wall is beyond words to explain. All I could wish is for the government to maintain this piece of history for generations to come.

In my opinion, this is the must-see place in Istanbul.
It's an incredible place, with the most amazing lighting effects.
A word of advice: try to get there as early as possible to take some incredible photos and avoid the crowds.

Quick, easy access to the attraction. Great photos - beautiful surroundings. Best photography opportunities were when the attraction was lit up blue / orange. Fascinating history and culture. Went early at 9am when it opened and we were all done within the hour.

It was very exciting to visit such an object. There was some confusion with the offer because of the price, but it was still ok

Skipped the massive queue for a couple of euros more than a standard ticket. It was super worthwhile! Great attraction. Really beautifully lit and great history

Most impressed with the amazing underground structure and all the history surrounding it. Lighting was brilliant and good information.
Tickets do need to be downloaded before arrival.

La cisterna è davvero spettacolare! Consiglio vivamente di vederla. Attenzione perché è sempre molto piena di turisti e c'è molta fila per il biglietto ma Acquistando il salta fila siamo entrati subito e senza attese. Con questa applicazione è stato molto semplice scaricarli.
