I had a difficulty because my Iphone was out of battery whenwe arrived, and I only has the QR on my Iphone. I had to explain this to a girl who helped me with finding a charger, and turning on my phone, to get them. It was magical, to find someone that saved us from the possibility of not being able to enter the Galata Tower for the Sunset. This was our last day in Istanbul. I regret not knowing her name, she was an extraordinary sweet and special girl.

Great experience and amazing view at sunset. Easy to get into the tower with the pre-booked tickets which was great as the queue to buy tickets on the day was very long. Maybe on the more expensive side of what I would pay for this but you get an incredible view of the whole city. Definately go at sunrise/sunset if you can.

I highly recommend buying headout tickets to skip the ticket buying stuff. For the galata tower you have to wait in line a bit even though you have the ticket already purchased, but it is the line needed to take the elevator . . And it is really worth it. Fantastic scenery..instambul was for me the most intense trip so far with a thousand emotions.

Gain panoramic views of Galata Tower

See one of the most iconic landmarks of Istanbul: The Galata Tower. This ginormous tower has been watching the city for over 6 centuries from this exact location and has become one of the most well-known symbols of the city. From the terrace, see one of the most - if not the most beautiful view of this stunning city, all of the historical peninsula, the Topkapı Palace, Hagia Sophia, the Bosphorus Strait, the Bosphorus Bridge, the Marmara Sea, both European and Asian sides of Istanbul, Golden Horn and even the Prince Islands. Spend as much time as you want to take the most incredible pictures of Istanbul.
