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.

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.

A stunning view of Istanbul from the top of this tower; the tour went smoothly. The only issue was a delay in receiving the ticket, which meant we had to wait to start the tour. A pleasant cruise

Honestly there was no line, very smooth entry on the right side of the building. Be aware that downstairs is not allowed for tourists. Don't confuse the entrance. The security made sure that people didn't block the passages. We came with our baby, on a carrier because strollers are not allowed indeed. So plan ahead. All in all we enjoyed it.

Admission was very easy and there was no waiting. But it was somewhat disappointing that only the galleries were accessible, and even then, access to the edges of the galleries was restricted. Structural work is being carried out with large scaffolding in the center of Hagia Sophia. The admission price is excessive for what you get to see.

    A flawless visit to the cathedral: no lines, quick entry, and clear signage. A fast-paced, well-organized tour. Highly recommended!!

    We didn't have to wait in line to buy tickets, and it took us less than ten minutes to get inside. We found the whole process very convenient and efficient.
