Visiting the Hagia Sophia was an absolute highlight of our trip to Istanbul. The exceptionally well-organized fast-track entry deserves special mention—no waiting time at all; everything went smoothly and was extremely pleasant. That’s exactly what makes the visit so relaxing and exclusive. A clear tip: be sure to arrive early in the morning; that way, you’ll get into the mosque quickly and can enjoy its impressive atmosphere in even greater tranquility. The majestic beauty and spiritual aura of this place are overwhelming. Highly recommended.”

Access was really quick and easy, thanks to the advance reservation made through Headout. Unfortunately, some structural elements inside have been secured with metal supports. It’s a real shame, but we hope it will be restored to its former state for the public.

The skip-the-line ticket and the audio guide were excellent, but the tour was very short because of the scaffolding blocking the view. The price doesn't justify the tour.

Although there was a lot of construction going on and we almost didn't go because of it, we were very glad we did go and especially glad we got skip the line tickets. Very beautiful and worth it.

There was a line, but at least we didn't have to wait to buy tickets—Mos really sped things up. Although there are more beautiful mosques. It's full of cranes and scaffolding, so you can't really appreciate its grandeur.

    Amazing experience, but get there early. Once the cruisers wake up, everywhere gets very American, very quickly - and not in anyway is that good!!
