    * Scheduling the visits was quite a hassle: unfortunately, you can’t reserve specific locations until 24 hours before the start of the booked time slot. + On top of that, I didn’t receive a link for it. * Trying to sort things out via the chatbot was impossible... even after being transferred to a specialist. I was constantly asked for my booking details and kept being put off with the excuse that the employee first had to look into it. * Only contacting them via email yielded results Communication via WhatsApp was unsatisfactory * Staff members were nowhere to be found * The guided tours were so fast-paced that my wife, who has difficulty walking, unfortunately couldn’t keep up * Access to the app was not possible online

    The process is too complicated for the Topkapi Palace Museum: meeting at a café that’s not exactly close by, waiting for the group to assemble, etc. Admission tickets like those for Hagia Sophia would be preferable. Five rides on the transit pass aren’t enough. Ten rides would be more appropriate given the number of days and visits. Finally, regarding the Bosphorus cruise, it’s very convenient that you can change your time slot, but it would be helpful if this were indicated from the start

    We encountered a few problems with the pass: we thought we would be able to use the transport tickets as soon as we arrived, but it was during a visit that the organization provided them to us. As for the hammams, all services were provided as promised, but when we arrived, we felt that the establishments were not familiar with the Megapass. To conclude, the biggest disappointment was during our visit to Topkapi (the most expensive tour), where our audio guide did not work properly, so we were unable to enjoy the tour and felt lost.
