Discover more, spend less
This Istanbul Old City experience functions as a focused sightseeing pass for a single, guided visit rather than a multi-day card. Your time is concentrated into a 3-hour walking tour that covers several of the city’s most iconic historic areas with a licensed professional guide, so you do not have to puzzle out your own route or background reading. Entrance fees to key monuments are handled separately on site as mandatory in-destination payments.
Seamless activation
Your “pass” for this experience takes the form of a timed booking for the guided walking tour. After you complete your purchase online, your confirmation serves as proof of eligibility to join the group at the scheduled start time; there is no extra app to download and no separate registration step. Any required entrance tickets to individual monuments are purchased directly at each site, on the day, using the mandatory local fee structure. Activation happens automatically when you meet your guide and the tour begins. Validity is tied solely to the chosen 3-hour slot. For example, if your tour is booked for 10:00 am, your included guiding services run until approximately 1:00 pm on that same day, with no further use outside this window.
Additional information
- Entrance fees: You must pay separate entrance fees for Hagia Sophia, Topkapı Sarayı with Harem and Aya İrini, and Basilica Cistern on-site.
